𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝘅, 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁 𝗮 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝗴 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵!

Rex is a 2-year-old shepherd mix who loves spending time with people and keeping his mind busy. Give him a food puzzle, a peanut butter-filled toy or something to chew on, and he's a happy guy!

Rex does well with cats and other dogs when given proper introductions. He knows basic commands and is making progress with his leash manners, including learning to walk without pulling.

At 58 pounds, Rex is looking for a family that will continue helping him learn and grow. He's ready for someone who will give him the time, attention and guidance he needs to become a great companion.

As Adopt a Shelter Dog Month comes to a close, Rex reminds us that there are still wonderful dogs waiting for homes at Campbell County Animal Services.

Learn more about Rex and adoption opportunities through Campbell County Animal Services on our website.

Saturday, Oct. 24, was National Pit Bull Awareness Day, and we couldn't think of a better reason to introduce you to Alexander.

Alexander is approaching his one-year anniversary at Campbell County Animal Services. That's nearly 365 days of waiting for someone to give him a chance.

National Pit Bull Awareness Day is about looking beyond stereotypes and getting to know the individual dog. Pit bulls are often misunderstood, but like all dogs, each has a unique personality, needs and experiences.

And that's what we want for Alexander. We want someone to get to know him for who he is, not simply what he looks like.

We'd love nothing more than for Alexander to find the right home before he reaches that one-year milestone.

If you've been thinking about adopting, please consider meeting Alexander. Our Animal Services staff can help you learn more about him and whether he might be a good match for your home.

And if you can't adopt, please share his story. You never know who might see it.

Let's help Alexander find his person.

Meet Louie. He's making progress at his own pace.

When Louie arrived at Campbell County Animal Services, he was severely underweight and frightened. He had come in as a stray with two other dogs, and the unfamiliar surroundings and new faces were a lot for him to take in.

Over the past few months, Louie has made some important progress. He's reached his goal weight, and now he's ready for the next chapter of his story: finding a home.

Louie is the kind of dog who likes to take things slowly. Meeting new people can still make him nervous, and he needs time to feel comfortable in unfamiliar places. A calm, patient home where he can settle in at his own pace would be a great match.

October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, and Louie is one of the dogs at Campbell County Animal Services hoping to find the right family.

Could you be the person willing to give Louie the time and patience he needs?

Visit Campbell County Animal Services to learn more about Louie and how to meet him. And if adoption isn't in your plans, sharing his story could help him find the right home.

What can be done when community cat populations become difficult to manage?

Campbell County Animal Services has an approach that works! It is called Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), a program that helps manage community cat populations by humanely trapping cats, having them spayed or neutered, and returning them to their outdoor homes.

In recognition of National Feral Cat Day, we're taking you into the field with Campbell County Animal Control Officer Troy Cover for a behind-the-scenes look at how the TNR program works.

Follow Troy through a day of trapping, caring for and returning community cats, and see how Campbell County Animal Services is working to address this issue in our community. Part 8
