STRAY INTAKES | September 4

Oh, so many strays came through our doors today. 💔

If you recognize one of these pets or believe one may be yours, please come to Montgomery County Animal Care & Control in person to check our stray areas.

As a reminder, stray pets are held for the required stray-hold period to give their families time to find and reclaim them:
- 3 business days without identification
- 5 business days with identification or a microchip

These pets are not currently available for adoption, so please do not ask about adoption availability at this time.

Please take a look, share this post, and help us get as many of them back home as possible. ♥️

A quick heads-up for the holiday weekend!

Montgomery County Animal Care & Control will be closed Monday, Sept. 7, in observance of Labor Day.

We’ll reopen Tuesday, Sept. 8 at 10 a.m. for normal business hours.

While we’re closed, you can still browse our adoptable pets online and start thinking about who you might want to meet when we reopen. ❤️

We hope everyone has a safe and happy Labor Day!

Another week, another Shelter Supermodel. 📸🐾

And this week’s cover boy has the looks, the personality and… well, we’ll just say brains aren’t everything. 😂

Meet Alphie. 🤎

Alphie is a 6-year-old chocolate Lab Retriever who came to us 16 days ago after being surrendered due to changes in his family’s housing. He had been with his owner since birth, so after six years in a home, shelter life has been a pretty big adjustment.

Thankfully, Alphie has never met a stranger.

He LOVES people, cuddles, running around outside, rope toys, squeakies and pretty much anything that involves being part of the action. He’s energetic, affectionate, playful and will happily announce from his kennel that he would very much like to GET OUT AND SEE YOU. 😂

His former family told us Alphie is crate and potty trained, lived successfully with both dogs and cats, and absolutely loves kids. Because he can be a whole lot of enthusiastic Lab, we think older kiddos may be the best match.

He even knows sit, paw, shake and dance. So maybe we take back what we said about the brains. 😉

Alphie is currently neutral around other dogs at the shelter, and because every dog pairing is different, we’d want to do a meet and greet with any resident pup before adoption.

And one more pretty special thing about this guy: Alphie was a registered emotional support animal for his previous owner. ❤️

After spending his entire life with one family, we’d really love to see his stay with us be a short one.

Alphie is fixed and ready to go home TODAY.

Johnny Rocket is such a sweet boy. He’s just having a really hard time showing it from behind his kennel door. 💔

At almost 2 years old, Johnny Rocket has been with us for 16 days after coming in as a stray. We don’t know much about what life looked like for him before he arrived, but we do know he hasn’t had the easiest time settling into shelter life.

He’s timid. He’s hesitant. And in his kennel, he can look pretty scared.

But give him a little time, look into those gorgeous golden eyes, get him out of his kennel, and you start to see the sweet boy underneath all those nerves. 🤍

Johnny Rocket can take a little to warm up with people but once he’s more trusting, he accepts cuddles and affection all over. He’s calm and appropriate around other dogs, but right now he shows very little interest in toys, play, or even rewards.

Sometimes we wonder if he’s ever really had the chance to learn how to just be a dog.

How to play.
How to feel safe.
How to know that the person beside him isn’t going anywhere.

Johnny Rocket is already fixed and can go home the same day he’s adopted. He will need a family willing to give him a little patience while he finds his confidence, but we’re really hoping this post reaches the people who can show him just how good life can be. ♥️

STRAY INTAKES | September 3

A few new faces came through our doors as strays today.

We’d love to see them reunited with the families who may be looking for them, so please take a look and share.

Think you recognize one? Stop by MCACC in person to check our stray areas.

A reminder that stray pets are held for 3 business days without identification and 5 business days with identification or a microchip.

These pets are not currently available for adoption, so please hold any adoption or availability questions while they complete their required stray hold. ❤️

This week’s ⭐ Staff Pick of the Week ⭐ is a gentle girl who may need a little time to show you just how sweet she is.

Meet Jen. 🩷🐶

At 2 years old, Jen came to us as a stray, so we don’t know much about what life looked like for her before she arrived.

What we do know is that the shelter — and especially kennel life — has been a little overwhelming for her.

Our staff says Jen can be hesitant at first, but give her a little time and you’ll see that tail start to wag as her incredibly sweet, calm personality comes through.

A little unsure at first? Yes.
A sweet tail wag once she warms up? Absolutely.
Great with other dogs? She sure is. 🐾

Treats and toys haven’t really impressed Jen yet, but maybe she just needs someone to show her how much fun being a pup can be.

Despite everything being new and unfamiliar, Jen has shown us wonderful behavior and quickly become a staff favorite.

She’ll need to be spayed before heading home, but we have a feeling the family willing to give her a little patience while she settles in is going to be very lucky to have her.

Sometimes the dogs who don’t immediately run to the front of the kennel asking for your attention are the ones worth slowing down for. 🥹

Come meet Jen and see why she’s this week’s Staff Pick of the Week. ✨

Meet the most precious void, Kitty 🐈‍⬛

She needed a little time to figure this whole shelter thing out.
And now? This kennel is her throne. 👑

Kitty is a 9-year-old senior girl who was surrendered due to a change in housing, through no fault of her own. After 23 days with us, the unsure girl who first arrived has officially settled in — and we’ve gotten to know just how sweet she really is. 🍭

She purrs. She headbutts. She makes biscuits on her favorite blankets. She wants ALL the pets. She loves treats and gets adorably excited about new toys, rubbing her little face all over them like she has to personally claim each one.

And once Kitty decides you’re her person? Prepare to be loved on. 🖤

As a member of our Golden Whiskers Club, Kitty may be 9, but she has plenty of cuddles, biscuits, and adventures left to give. She’s ready to trade her shelter throne for a comfy spot of her own. + her adoption fee is greatly reduced!!

Come make Kitty’s day today 🥰

PS. Toys included with her adoption because look at her with them 🥹 she’s 100% a kitten a heart.
