Zoey

Beautiful and friendly — that’s our Zoey, a 1-year-old, bi-color, American shorthair girl. She’s ready to step out, dressed elegantly in classic charcoal gray and pristine white. Charming, engaging and fun, her cheerful personality shines when she feels loved. A truly wonderful cat with a warm and delightful nature, Zoey will be a welcome addition in a variety of good and loving forever home settings. Come meet Zoey, ID No. 0946; you’ll be glad you did. She is available at the shelter.

Adam

Handsome, friendly, treat-loving Adam is listed as a large, 2-year-old male, chocolate/tan retriever mix. This energetic fellow will do best with active owner(s) willing to give him their love and attention, take him along on their outings, give him regular exercise — playtime included — in a fenced area or on a leash, basic obedience training (he knows sit), and a good forever home.

For more information see Facebook’s ENC Shelter Dogs: Adam, ID No. 0951. He’s available at the shelter,
