We had a celebrity come visit today πŸ₯Ήβ€οΈ

Some of you may remember Drools and his story... he was adopted 6 years ago after waiting 729 days in the shelter for his forever‼️

Drools and his human took the time to come by and say hi today while on a road trip 🐾 We are so glad to see he and his human are still together and going strong ❀️❀️ Drools walked around and took it all in again, then loaded back up to get back to livin' life as he should ❀️❀️

Thanks to the Conour staff during Drool's time at the shelter for their care, to Kacey King of Relay For Rescue for everything she did to help Drools find his forever, and to his adopter Josh Simpson for getting him out of the kennel and into a loving forever home πŸ’―

Here is a link to his story from 6 years ago if you are interested in more background on this awesome guy πŸ€“ πŸ‘‡

Sweet baby Hela 🩷 She is the prettiest little pittie - so petite and such a lovebug 🐾

She did great at the adoption event last week: she wagged her tail at every human who walked by, licked little kids fingers who stopped by to say hi, and soaked up some love. But she grumbled and barked at other dog friends near her πŸ˜† and showed us she is truly just interested in soaking up all the love in a home herself.

Hela needs:
🩷A home where she is the only
🩷An adopter who understands a dog with a young body (she is about 1) but with an old soul πŸ₯Ή
🩷 To not be caged in... the kennel is hard for her, she would really love to be able to roam free and have good human company. Do some gardening, take a nap, go for a walk... puttering through the day with her adopter would suit her just fine 😊

She is incredibly loving, has those soulful eyes that melt you, loves wet food more than dry πŸ˜‹, gets drooly when she is bored, and is a wonderful best friend waiting for good hearted human πŸ’•

Would you like to meet her?! Here's how πŸ‘‡
πŸ“ We are located at 2825 Sherman Ave in Monte Vista (behind Alpine Vet)
⏰️ Our hours are Tues-Fri 11-4 pm, Saturdays from 1-5 pm, Sundays by appointment
☎️ You can also reach us here at the shelter at (719) 852-3366, leave a voicemail if we don't answer πŸ‘
πŸ’Œ Adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip, and up to date vaccines πŸ™Œ
