Gabe

Good with people, good with other dogs and sweet, that’s our Gabe. This 1-year-old, brown and white Terrier–mix is all boy. Handsome, with melt-your-heart warm brown eyes, and well-groomed in his shorthair coat, Gabe is friendly, calm and gentle. Pay him a visit and see for yourself, what a great guy he is. Gabe is available through Saturday at the shelter.

Chester and Cindy

Ready to party in classic black and white, that’s our 7-month-old Chester, Cindy and Alex (not pictured). Chester, a calm, friendly male, is a handsome tuxedo. Cindy, an active, inquisitive girl is a pretty bi-color — named after Cindy Crawford. Look closely — our Cindy, like Ms. Crawford, has a beauty mark! Alex is a rather shy, tuxedo. Come in and meet these delightful cats. They’re available through Saturday at the shelter.
