Pet of the Week: Meet Naomi

by Leave a Comment

Hi, I am Naomi, a 4-year-old hound mix. If you are interested in adopting me and have an approved application, I may require more than one visit as I take a minute to warm up to strangers.

I weigh in at 35 pounds and am spayed and up to date on my vaccinations. I am clean in my kennel and it is believed I was house-trained in my lifetime.

I do get along with some other dogs but it’s uncertain how I would do in a home with cats. I am affectionate once I get to know you. I enjoy sitting close to you on the couch.

I am small in stature and not very much bigger than Beagle size.

It will require some patience to get to know me, but once you do I am full of love.

If you think you may be interested in adoption you can stop by the shelter for a kennel walk through Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-2:30p.m. and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also visit our website at www.shorespca.com and print out an adoption application. Or email us at shorespca@gmail.com and ask that an application be attached and sent back to you.

You can call the shelter Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-3p.m. with any questions at 757-787-7385

Pet of the Week: Meet Collette

by Leave a Comment

Hi, I am Collette, a beautiful female Shepard and Collie mix. I am around 7 years old. I have been with the SPCA for a while as I came in heartworm positive, and had to finish treatment. Once that was taken care of I was spayed and am up to date on my vaccines.

I weigh in at 73 pounds and am very long. I am not a big fan of cats, but have met another smaller dog here and did well, so I may get along with another dog.

Not a lot is known about my history before being transferred to the SPCA, but I am a very unique gal. I am a little skeptical of head rubs at first, but I do enjoy love and affection once I get to know you.

I am quite fond of toys, and trying to discover what you have in your hands. I am not big at jumping up on you, but when treats are involved I can get a little excited.

I will probably do well in a home with older children. Once you get to know me I am very entertaining and am looking to lounge around with you.

I do seem to enjoy brushing, and my long coat will require some grooming.

If you think you may be interested in adopting Collette you can stop by the shelter Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-2:30p.m. for a kennel walk through and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also email us at shorespca@gmail.com and asked that an application be attached and sent back to you. Or print one out on our website anytime at www.shorespca.com.

Pet of the Week: Sweet Bella Needs a Home

by Leave a Comment

Hi I am Bella a 2-year-old lab mix female. I am spayed and am up to date on my vaccines. I am somewhat short in stature but weigh a compact 55 lbs.

I am very clean in my kennel so I was definitely house trained. I enjoy toys and human contact. I am super smart and know how to sit for a treat, and could easily learn more tricks.

I am extremely energetic when I am enjoying my recess outside. I seem to enjoy running up and down the fence with some of the dogs on the other side, so there may be another dog I can get along with in a home.

It is uncertain how I would do in a home with cats. I do seem to enjoy the staff company when I am outside with them, and I do enjoy treats which could be helpful in learning new manners every day.

I should be fine around children with some size to them, but I may be a little much for smaller children as I am learning to not jump up on you in greeting.

If you think you may be interested in adopting Bella you can come by the shelter any Tuesday-Saturday and do a kennel walkthrough from 10am-2:30 p.m. and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also email and ask that an adoption application be attached and sent back to you at our email www.shorespce.com

You can print out an adoption application on our website as well at www.shorespca.com

If you have any questions you can call the shelter office Tuesday-Saturday 10am-3p.m. with any questions at 757-787-7385

Pet of the week additional: Celeste Needs a Home!

by Leave a Comment

Hi I am Celeste a female one-year-old tabby weighing in at a sleek 7 pounds. I am very friendly and adoring of people, but I had a traumatic experience with dogs, so I would not do well in a home with large dogs. I will however do fine with other cats and children.

I really enjoy affection and attention and am playful. I would make a good companion for any family. I am sleek and sweet and usually greet anyone coming in the cat room for a visit.

If you think you may be interested in adopting Celeste you can come and visit her at the shelter any Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-2:30p.m. and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

Pet of the Week: Traveler still needs a home!

by Leave a Comment

Hi, I am Traveler. I earned my name because I am always eager to “travel” with you. As of November 2023 I have spent a year of my life at the Eastern Shore SPCA, still holding out hope for a home.

People see me spinning in my kennel on kennel walk-throughs and assume that I am “hyper”, or somehow have to much energy. The truth is that outside that kennel I am one of the most calm, loving, dogs in the shelter.

I have gotten along with every dog I have been paired with for playtime here at the SPCA. It is unsure how I’d do with cats, but I can be cat-tested and most probably would do fine in a home with them. Children and adults alike would get along with me fine.

I am around 3 years old, and I am a very skinny male shepherd mix. I weigh in at just 38 pounds, and am not very tall in stature.

I don’t like being in the kennel very much because I like to burn my energy running in the yard and playing. I am clean in my kennel, though, and l don’t tear up toys and blankets. I am pouring over with love if you meet me beyond the kennel door, and I have so much love to give.

I have been in a shelter situation for over a year and I am still just as sweet as the first day I arrived.

If you think you may be interested in adopting Traveler, you can stop by and do a kennel walkthrough Tuesday-Saturday 10 a.m.-2:30 p.m. and pick up an application while you are there, or you can also print an application on our website anytime at www.shorespca.com

In addition, you can email us at shorespca@gmail.com and ask that an application be attached and sent back to you, or call the shelter with any questions at 757-787-7385.

Pet of the Week: Meet TeTe

by Leave a Comment

Hi I am TeTe, I am a 1-year-old female chihuahua mix weighing in at 12 pounds. I am very friendly and outgoing.

I thoroughly enjoy any and all affection and attention you can give me. I am part of a bonded pair (here with my brother JoJo) and am only slightly dominant over my brother. Besides typical sibling arguments, we are very comfortable with each other.

I enjoy toys, and running around the recess yard with my brother.

We are both friendly and are quick learners. I am spayed and up to date on all my vaccines.

If you think you may be interested in this sweet sibling pair you can stop by Tuesday-Saturday 10 a.m.-2:30p.m. for a kennel walk-through and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also print out an adoption application on our website anytime at www.shorespca.com or email us at shorespca@gmail.com and ask that an adoption application be attached and sent back to you.

Pet of the Week: Meet JoJo!

by Leave a Comment

Hello, I am JoJo, a one-year-old 10-pound male chihuahua mix.

I am here with my sister TeTe and we are a bonded pair, so we are hoping to be adopted together.

I am slightly more shy than her, but I do warm up very easily, as I tend to follow my sister’s lead. I am very loving playful and full of energy as I am still rather young. I enjoy playing with my toys.

I like to get up on tall things outside when I am waiting to come in from recess. I like a good viewpoint. I am well-rounded, vaccinated, and neutered. My sister is my best friend and we truly enjoy each other’s company, we give each other a bath and comfort one another, but are both somewhat outgoing and friendly.

If you think you may be interested in adopting this pair you can stop by any Tuesday-Saturday 10am-2:30p.m. for a kennel walk-through where you can view all the dogs in the kennel and pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also print out an adoption application on our website at www.shorespca.com or email us at shorespca@gmail.com and ask that an adoption application be attached and emailed back to you.

Pet of the Week: Wynonna Needs a Home

by Leave a Comment

Hi I am Wynonna a 1-year-old female hound mix. I am shy at first, but once I trust you I am very affectionate. I am rather short in stature (not much taller than a Basset Hound), and I weigh about 38 lbs.

I do enjoy a warm bed with blankets, and I sometimes enjoy tossing toys around. Though I do whine when not around my human friends, I don’t seem to be very vocal in the shelter office, or meeting new people.

I enjoy sitting on laps, or just laying my head in your lap and soaking up your affections while I wag my tail. I came in with my mother, so it may be possible that I could get along with other dogs in a home. It is uncertain if I would be okay in a home with cats. I am spayed and up to date on my vaccines.

If you think you may interested in adopting Wynonna you can come by the shelter any Tuesday-Saturday 10a.m.-2:30p.m. to do a kennel walk-through and you can pick up an adoption application while you are there.

You can also email and ask that an application be attached and sent back to you at our email address shorespca@gmail.com Or visit our website anytime and print out an application at www.shorespca.com
