Wet Nose Wednesday: Meet Phipps!

Wet Nose Wednesday: Meet Phipps!

I’d love to introduce myself as the brand-new Phipps, formerly known as Lips! Take this as my shout to the world that I am the best big hunk of love ever. I’ve been at APS since December 22nd, 2022 and the humans who love me and feed me here thought I would do best with a big boy name, given my 6 year old age and sophisticated but goofy demeanor. I’m friendly, sweet, and affectionate, and boy do I love treats. I was recently announced champion of Mutt Madness because I’m just so gosh darn talented at catching treats, they never go wasted with me! I got to explore Durham with a nice volunteer, and she said I was the best shotgun rider, didn’t have much separation anxiety, and even posed for the pictures she took of me. I do prefer humans and treats to dogs and always promise to lean in for a good rub. I can’t wait to find my forever home, please come meet me today!

Kids 8+, jumpy, intense eater

Dogs: stiff but soliciting, tries to hump, slow/careful intros

Phipps’s fee, and all dogs at the shelter have been waived! Come meet him today!

Wet Nose Wednesday: Meet Tali!

Wet Nose Wednesday: Meet Tali!

Tali is a sweet, curious girl who has been at APS since August. She cannot wait to explore and cuddle with you. She is a young girl who is sweet and loving with a lot of joy in her heart.  Even though Tali has tested positive for the Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV), she is capable of living a full, healthy life. This virus can suppress her immune system, potentially making her more susceptible to other infections. While there is no cure for FeLV, with regular veterinary care cats can go on to live a relatively healthy and long lifestyle. The disease can be transmissible to other cats, but not to people or other species. Ideally, FeLV-positive cats should either live with other cats that have tested positive for FeLV to reduce the risk of spreading the disease or in a single cat household. Thank you for considering opening your heart and home to such a sweet and wonderful as Tali.

Wet Nose Wednesday: Lady Shortcake

Wet Nose Wednesday: Lady Shortcake

We are so excited to feature LADY SHORTCAKE, our awesome, amazing lady waiting for her next wonderful home. Lady Shortcake is a young, adult female dog with a good amount of wonderful energy that has been with us at the shelter up for adoption since May 9th. She’s an energetic gal, slightly excitable around other dogs but very friendly, responds well to treat-training and eager to learn better manners. She is very ready to find her new home.

Visit Lady Shortcake’s Adoption Profile Here!

“Just like Eliza Doolittle, I’m working hard on becoming a proper lady. For now at least, I would prefer to be your one-and-only canine companion. I get a bit excitable around other dogs, but hey – I’m working on it. If that sounds like something you can commit to, let’s talk. I’m still young, a bit over one year old and a muscular 55 pounds.  I’m super friendly and really motivated to learn.  I just need a good teacher. As the Lady Doolittle put it many years ago, “I don’t want no gold or no diamonds! I’m a good girl, I am!” I’m just looking for a home where I can be me.”
