Meet Waylon & Willie, the Mirror’s Pets of the Week
Me and my buddy Willie are just hanging out here at the shelter until the right person offers us permanent digs as members of their household. We’re a fox terrier duo that the folks here estimate to be around 9 months to a year old. Yep, we’ve decided that where one of us goes, the other will go too. We’ve managed to stay together this long, and we reckon to keep it that way.
Now personally, I think I’m the handsomer of the two of us. My pardner Willie, he’s just plain tan with no contrasting markings. My basic tan is decorated with classy black areas on my shoulders and back, and I have a fancy white blaze on my chest. I’m a bit of a ladies’ man, if I do say so myself.
When we come inside from being out in the exercise yard, Willie always just heads on back into the kennel we share, but I like to stop off and visit for a spell with a cute little hound we pass on the way in and out. I know I catch her eye with my sophisticated markings and my habit of always keeping both my ears erect. None of Willie’s “cute” ear cocking for me, no sirree. Both of us have tons of energy.
We do pretty much everything in unison, but I guess you’d probably consider me to be the ring leader. When we mess around, I’m usually the one who starts things. Someone here said the two of us have no concept of personal space once we get going, and I reckon it’s true. I think nothing of draping myself across Willie’s back if he’s in my way, and he does pretty much the same to me. I’m hoping that our furever home will be somewhere with plenty of space for us to romp and play in. Might be nice if there were also some children to be playmates with us.
I’ve heard folks here say that we’re fairly clean in our kennel but that we need a home with folks who are willing to spend some time working on house training with us. They say you can get an adoption application for us by emailing shorespca@gmail.com or by stopping by the shelter between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

Kudos to the talented individual who does these animal write ups. Purely wonderful. Makes me want to adopt each and every one of them. Wish that I could.
