Meet Clay!
Hi, I'm Clay! I am a very goofy brindle boy who loves to play, especially with toys! I have never met a stranger and would love someone to take me on adventures. I do like other dogs, but I do best with ones who can handle my energy. The staff at the humane society recommend a meet and greet with any dogs in the home prior to adoption to ensure we get along. I am really excited to find my furever home; could that be you? Thanks to Drs. Kevin & Heather Vincent, my adoption fee is FREE!

Meet Calcio!
Hi there! My name is Calcio and I'm a sweet senior lady. I love being brushed and getting attention, but am still very low maintenance. Due to my age, I can't jump up on anything so all your glassware is safe! I would do best in a home with minimal access to carpet as I'm very particular about my litter habits. Could you be my retirement home? Thanks to Gaston Tree Debris Recycling, LLC my adoption fee is FREE!
