Pet of the Week: Carter Still Needs a Forever Home

March 26, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Hi I am Carter. I am a very happy-go-lucky kind of guy. I weigh in at just around 60 lbs and am a Lab mix. I am very young and am in the 1-2 year age range. I am an absolute lovebug!

I could possibly get along with other dogs as I don’t seem to mind visiting next to the smaller dogs here, and puppies.

I have been neutered and am up to date on my vaccines.

I really enjoy being with people. I try to be gentle, but can use a little help with my walking on a leash. It is unknown how I may do in a home with cats.

I am fairly clean in my kennel, so may need some patient relearning house training. I am an all around friendly guy.

If you think you may be interested in meting me, you can stop by the shelter Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-2:30p.m. to walk through our kennel and pick up an application. You can also print one out on our website at

www.shorespca.com.

You can send an email to us at shorespca@gmail.com and request an application be sent to you or call with any questions at 757-787-7385

Pet of the Week: Sadie Still Needs a Home

March 19, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Hi, I am Sadie. I am an 11 year old female. I am looking for a place to spend the rest of my days getting “butt scratches”, my all time favorite! I am short in stature, but plump. I am a mix of Shar Pei, and Boxer.

I am still in the lead for all “tail waggin’ contests here!I have no problem voicing my needs, you just have to learn to decipher what they are.

I am house trained and really prefer getting my outside breaks and coming right back in to curl up and take a nap, with lots of loving of course.

I was the only dog in the home for many years so I may not get along with other dogs. I also never was in a home with cats, so not really sure how I would do in a home with them.

I really do seem to love most people and will accept a good rubbing, and treat from them. I was spayed many years ago, and am up to date on my vaccines.

If you think you may be interested in adopting me you can email and request an application at shorespca@gmail.com. You can use our website to print an application out at www.shorespca.com, and you can contact the shelter Tuesday-Saturday 10am-3pm at 757-787-7385

Pet of the Week: Meet Indigo

March 5, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Hi I am Indigo I have been at the shelter several months before my feature because I was heartworm positive, and have undergone treatment. I am a female Bulldog mix around 2-3 years old and about 45 pounds. I have been treated for heartworms, I’m spayed, and am up to date on my vaccines.

I am a really awesome gal. I talk to you in a squeal of excitement when I see you first thing in the morning. When people do kennel walkthroughs here, I am one of the calmest in my kennel. Extremely clean, and energetic, I seem to get along with most other dogs and was around several other dogs before coming here. I am not a fan of cats, however.

I truly love people. A compact 45 pounds, I am strong, even for my shorter height. Children with age and height should be able to handle me though. I really enjoy getting in your lap because I don’t realize I don’t fit in all laps!

If you think you may be interested in adopting Indigo, you can come by the shelter Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and pick up an application while you are here. You can also print an application out on our website, www.shorespca.com. You can call us with any questions at 757-787-7385, or email us at shorespca@gmail.com and asked that an application be attached and sent back to you.

Hi, I am Pumpkin! I am a lover of all people big and small, young and old. I enjoy squeaking toys and getting my belly rubbed. In fact, if you’re loving on me, it doesn’t take long for me to roll over for some wonderful belly-rub action. I am around 3 years old and weigh in at 57 pounds.

Many Wonderful Animals at ESRAF still need homes

February 19, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Below is a list of the current dogs and cats here at the facility. Each of these animals is either here because they’ve been picked up as a stray, owner given up, or seized. They all need loving homes, and unfortunately, time here for each of them is limited.

If everyone will share the Shelter’s posts on Facebook, it could help dogs and cats be returned home, if they’re missed by their families, or could help them find new loving homes!

Pet of the Week: Meet Lolly

February 19, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Lolly, a 10-year-old-plus female Foxhound, has been a resident here at the shelter twice before. We don’t know her history before she came to us for the first time, but we’re hoping that the third time’s the charm for her in finding her “furever” home.

Had we known what we know now about Lolly when she first stayed with us, we might have named her Houdini. When she was adopted, it turned out that she’s a master escape artist. True to her breed, given even the smallest chance to follow a scent, Lolly goes bounding joyfully off to investigate it. She walks on a leash, but whoever’s walking her needs to be ready and have a firm hand to control her when she picks up a scent and wants to bolt after it.

Something we didn’t find out about Lolly during either of her previous stays at the shelter is that she’s apparently afraid of loud noises. One of the family members in her second adoptive home was wheelchair bound. During thunderstorms Lolly would run to her lap seeking comfort and reassurance. Concerned that Lolly might injure her, the family reluctantly returned Lolly to us.

So this lovely “lady of a certain age” obviously won’t fit easily into just any home. She needs an adopter who’s aware of her wandering ways and her fear of loud noises and is savvy enough to handle them. A home without a feline family member would probably be best because— well, Lolly’s a Foxhound; chasing small animals is In her genes. A securely fenced yard would be a bonus.

But in the right home, Lolly will make a delightful and loving companion. She likes people and gets along well with people of all ages. She’ll make herself right at home on your couch, and she loves getting belly rubs. She’s clean in her kennel here and is potty trained. And she’s already spayed and is up to date on all vaccines.

Think you might be the right match for Lolly? Come do a kennel walkthrough between 10:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and get to meet her. If you’d like an adoption application, you can pick one up during your visit, download one from our website (www.shorespca.com), or request one by email (shorespca@gmail.com). You can also call the shelter between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. if you have any questions.
