Thelma is an 8 week old female mixed breed puppy.
She and her littermate, Louise, are currently in foster care and they are up for adoption and ready to find their new homes!
Both of these girls are a beautiful brindle, and they are both full of s***k and sass! They love to wrestle, play with toys, and then plop down for a snuggle on the nearest lap.
They will remain small dogs, probably 25ish pounds.

Henry is a 1 year old male mixed breed.
He was returned to PAWS due to no fault of his own. He is the sweetest, gentlest dog. He loves pets & belly rubs.
He has a headstart on manners & potty training and is hoping to continue his learning with his new family!

UPDATE: Henry has entered our new training program PAWS to Freedom and will be working with inmates at the Pierre Minimum Center. This is a 6-8 week program to teach manners, tricks & skills to help make the transition to a new family even more seamless! We are excited to see his progress along the way, and we hope to have found a forever home by the time they complete the program. Apply today!

This week, we’re stocking up on a must-have for our feline friends:

🐱 Kitty Cat Litter 🐱

Our preferred brand is Special Kitty (available at Walmart), but truly—any clumping litter is greatly appreciated! We go through a lot every day to keep our cats clean, healthy, and comfortable.

If you’re able to grab an extra bag while you’re out shopping, it makes a huge difference for the kitties in our care.

Donations can be dropped off during open hours or coordinated with a volunteer.

Thank you for always supporting our PAWS cats 💙🐾
If you would like to order for delivery, our shipping address is 1530 Lowell Ave in Pierre. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Special-Kitty-Clumping-Scented-45-LB-Cat-LitterBox/18074163753?classType=VARIANT&athbdg=L1100
