Looking to add a little Styles to your life? We've got the dog for you!

Styles is a dog who has it all: Young, friendly, curious, energetic, wiggly, and always ready to make you smile.

For Styles, every day is a new adventure. He loves exploring his surroundings, following interesting smells, and making new friends wherever he goes. His fun-loving personality really shines through in everything he does.

Our staff at the Roanoke Valley SPCA describe him as incredibly goofy, with a tail that never seems to stop wagging. When he's excited, his whole body gets wiggly, and since he's usually a pretty happy guy, there's never any shortage of wiggles.

If you're looking for a cheerful companion who will keep you laughing and bring plenty of joy to your life, Styles may be the perfect match. Come meet him and see why everyone here has fallen in love with his charming personality!

Take a look at this gorgeous girl! This is Little Kitty, and she finds herself in need of a new home after a Good Samaritan took her in off the streets, but cannot care for her long term. She's adjusted incredibly well to being indoors and her current guardian says that she loves wand toys, "hunting," and looking out the window.

Little Kitty is available for rehoming through our Home to Home Program and is NOT at our shelter. If you are interested in giving Little Kitty her new loving home, check out her bio on our Home to Home Gallery https://rvspca.org/rehoming-gallery/little-kitty/ to find out how to contact her current guardian. Can't adopt? You can still help her find a new home by sharing this post!

About our Home to Home Program:
This is a listing of pets who are available for adoption from their current owners. These pets are NOT in our shelter. One of our main goals is to keep pets and people together but we recognize that there are circumstances that owners face which necessitate a pet be rehomed. The Home to Home Gallery helps pet owners find new homes without their pet having to come into the shelter, helping leave space for other animals in need.

To view all pets available in our Home to Home Gallery, visit our website: https://rvspca.org/rehoming-gallery/

Have you ever wondered what you would do if your pet got choked? Or if they had a seizure? What if they were bitten by a snake? Pets can keep us on our toes and have unexpected injuries and illnesses just like humans. You're not alone if you've questioned how you would handle any of these situations. Luckily, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) has some really great resources to guide you through what to do to best help your pet. There's even a great flyer you can download and print or save it on your phone! Check it all out here:

This past week we took in 4 cats, 1 dog, 18 kittens, and 9 puppies. Eleven of these pets came into our shelter because their owners could no longer care for them, one was returned, and the rest were transferred in from other local shelters. Pictured is a peek of a few of the pets who came into our shelter this week. All animals coming into our facility are vet checked, spayed or neutered, vaccinated according to their age, and microchipped before they will be made available for adoption. Some animals — especially puppies, kittens, and their moms may also need time in foster care, but keep checking our adoption gallery here: https://rvspca.org/availability/adopt/ to see when they become available!

What should you do when you come across a lost pet?

It can be a stressful moment to find a dog or cat who is alone and unsure of where to go. In that situation, it is important to pause and remember that this animal likely has a family who is actively looking for them. Your actions in those first moments can make a real difference.

We have outlined important steps and guidance to help give every lost pet the best possible chance of finding their way back to their guardians.

Today is Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States. Specifically, it marks the day, June 19, 1865, when enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. In terms of animal welfare, we'd love to share this article to help recognize African American people who are improving the animal welfare world for pets: https://bestfriends.org/stories/features/african-americans-changing-life-homeless-pets

It takes all of us working together to create a better world for pets and people! Thank you to everyone dedicating their lives to this work!

Hidden figures in animal welfare share about inclusion and how it impacts pets and people.
