32 Pets Found Happiness this week! Including our best boy Denver!
Denver was transferred to the Center for Pets back in June of 2022. With his dashing good looks and charming personality, he quickly stole the hearts of many of our staff members.
Though he had many staff buddies who loved him, Denver patiently waited for someone to come and take him home and that finally happened this week! We are so excited for Denver and his new family.
Thank you to the generous person who sponsored Denver’s adoption fee and to Petco Love for making adoptions like this possible!

Big Mac, along with 30 other Pets found happiness this week!
Big Mac is the definition of a hunk of love. This big orange boy was saved in the community by our friends at Stray Cat TNR and was in need of immediate medical attention. Big Mac had a severe ear wound that was in danger of becoming infected as well as some symptoms of an upper respiratory infection. Big Mac received the first round of his treatment from LHS at our Spay/Neuter Clinic. Our veterinarian operated on Big Mac, treating his ear as well as completing his neuter. Big Mac then received the rest of his medication and was helped through recovery by our wonderful Medical Team and his foster, Shannon. Big Mac had his suture removal last month and it is completely healed! Check out the before and after photos!
He got to join in on a class of Purrlates and loved every minute of getting to snuggle up on some other attendees. His big personality and handsome looks landed him a family really quick once he became available for adoption and the staff couldn’t be happier for him. Congrats to Big Mac and his new family!

Staff and Volunteer favorite, Archie, and 41 other pets found happiness!
Big boy Archie stole lots of hearts here at LHS and last week he found his new family!
We believe is a guardian breed mix so he LOVES being outside. While he was here at LHS he spent a lot of time with our volunteers on walks and on Petcations like the one pictured here. We are so happy for Archie!

Every time a pet comes through our doors, we are ready to jump in and provide whatever we need to do for them. Some need more help than others. And some bring us to tears…this was the case with Tater Tot when we first saw him. This 10-month-old Great Pyrenees pup was severely emaciated, weighing just under 30 pounds. He also suffered from fleas, hair loss, sores, and a muscle-wasted body. Being muscle-wasted caused him to not have much strength to stand or walk and is likely caused by not being able to exercise while growing. Upon intake, Tater Tot received immediate care including the beginning of a strict meal plan and diet, immunizations, and collections for tests to diagnose possible parasites. He was loved on by many staff members while he was here (pictured left with Medical Team member Hannah and right with Adoption counselor Mack) and our very own Dr. Dunn decided to take Tator Tot home as a foster pet as well to help him get better.
Flash forward into that fostering and we had a complete “foster fail”! Tater Tot was adopted by our very own, wonderful, Dr. Dunn this week and he is doing AMAZING! He is making many new friends – the resident pets and a sweet human baby as you can see in the updated picture we got. He has gained 13 pounds since being in our care and is getting stronger every day. Tater Tot went from barely being able to stand to being able to run! Thank you so much to our wonderful pet-loving community for rallying behind Tater Tot and supporting his care and treatment.
Dr. Dunn said he will start training classes in March and is officially in love with her human baby and the baby loves him too.
and as always, we want to thank Beacon Credit Union for Sponsoring this month’s adoption banner!
Adopted Pets from February 21st through February 27th.
Whiskey and 46 other Pets Found Happiness this week!
Sweet Whiskey came into our care in March of 2022. She instantly became a favorite amongst our staff with her kind and well, sweet personality!
Whiskey was one of our first pups to try out our new tutoring foster program! Tutoring is a short term (usually weekend) foster placement for our dogs and is all about learning what our dogs like, want, and need in home environments, and teaching our dogs that homes and people are great things! Whiskey’s foster, Gabby had nothing but amazing things to say about her. She absolutely loved taking Whiskey home on the weekends and spoiling her.
Turns out, all the spotlight on this sweet girl caught the eye of a gentleman who drove over 200 miles to adopt and take Whiskey home! We couldn’t be more excited for Whiskey and her new family.
We want to say thank you to the family who sponsored Whiskey’s adoption fee and thank you to Beacon Credit Union for Sponsoring this month’s adoption banner.
