Della

I'm Della, and I'm friendly and fun! I'm about 6 years old, but I'm so active and playful that my foster mom thought I was much younger. I am also a snuggle bug and will lay on you for petting; my cheeks especially! I was adopted from another shelter by my previous owner about a year ago, but they couldn't keep me, so I need a new family again -- this time forever.

Cheetah

Cheetah is one cool cat. He's 10 yrs old but acts like a 4 yr old. He's got the personality of a dog, he loves to be near you most of the time and will beg for snacks.

Jasmine

My name is Jasmine. They say I'm a Portuguese Fila. I am estimated to be about 7 years old and weigh about 55lbs. The best word to describe me is cuddly! I love to curl up on couches (and beds when my foster dad's not watching), especially when my foster humans are watching a movie.

Sly

My name is Sly. I look a little like an Arctic Fox. Mostly white, I have brown spots on my body and brown freckles on my ears. The best word to describe me is Sweet! I am the nicest guy. I am estimated to be 3 years old and weigh in at 27 lbs. I ride very nicely in the car and am quiet in the house (not a peep out of me so far).

Gertrude

Gertrude is a 14 year old 6lb Chi who is looking for a retirement home to call her own. She is just about the sweetest dog you will ever meet and her favorite activity is snuggling on a warm lap underneath the blankets. She does not see or hear very well but she does not let that slow her down! She loves to wander all around the house and when she is done with her exercise routine she will come over to be picked up so she can take a nap on your nice warm lap.
