Our dogs have been hanging out at Parkin’ in the Pines in Dry Prong today looking for loving homes! We’re not sure how much longer we will be here since it’s getting a little hot, but send us a text (318-321-0424) or message here and let us know if you’d like to meet any of these pups before we close at 4pm today!

Fostering is FREE and adoptions are only $30! Every foster and adoption opens a space for another in need. Come find your new best friend! 💙🐶

You can also “shop” online! View all of our dogs on the website here: www.grantso.org/animalcontrol

🚨We are EXTREMELY FULL with dogs and especially puppies right now, and we urgently need adopters and fosters to step up so we can continue saving lives! 🚨

Every open kennel matters. Every foster home matters. Every share matters. We desperately need our community and supporters to help these dogs get out of the shelter and into loving homes. Rescue tags would also be helpful right now!

These dogs are depending on us. Some are puppies. Some are scared. Some have been waiting FAR too long for someone to notice them. They deserve couches instead of kennels and families instead of fences. You can view ALL of our available pups and submit inquiries for adoption and fostering on the website here: www.grantso.org/animalcontrol

Fostering is FREE and all supplies/vetting assistance are provided. Even short-term fosters help save lives and create much-needed space!

Adoptions are only $30 and include:
💙 Spay/neuter
💙 Vaccines
💙 Deworming
💙 Microchip

If nothing else - please share this post to help us reach more people!

Anyone recognize or know the owners of any of these dogs? If they look familiar to you OR if they belong to you, please contact us so we can help get them back home where they belong!

📲 You can text us at 318-321-0424 to claim or to report helpful information to help us find the owners! If no owners are found after legal stray hold, we will be looking for homes for these guys so please go ahead and text us or submit an application if you are interested. We are FULL and need some dogs to go to great homes!

🚨 PUPPY OVERLOAD 🚨You’re gonna want to scroll through these pics….

We have had SO many new puppy intakes lately and we desperately need fosters and adopters to help us keep up. Puppy season has officially hit us HARD and without a warning.

We currently have puppies of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels looking for somewhere safe and comfortable to land, whether that’s temporarily in foster or forever through adoption!

While we don’t have an adoption event planned this weekend, our officers WILL still be available during regular hours today (Friday) - and on Saturday and Sunday we will be accepting and checking applications for anyone wanting to come meet our dogs and puppies next week (Tuesday!) when we are back in the office. You can also just take someone out for a fun doggy day out date if you’d like with no commitment during our regularly open business days! 🥰

And before you think to yourself, “I can’t afford a puppy right now”……just hear us out 👀

🐾 Foster supplies are provided
🐾 We help with vetting and medical care
🐾 Foster-to-adopt options are welcome
🐾 Adoption fees are ONLY $30
🐾 You don’t pay anything until you know it’s a great fit for your family!!
🐾 We are happy to provide post adoption and foster guidance and support as long as you need it to help set you and the pups up for success!

Seriously. We try to make this as easy and low-stress as possible because these babies deserve homes, not kennels. And yes… the puppy breath is also included for free. 🥰

Some of these puppies just need a short-term foster while they grow, get vetted, or wait on adopters/rescue placement. Others are ready to go steal your couch and your snacks immediately!

If you’ve been thinking about helping, now is the time. One foster home opening up can literally save multiple lives. WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!

Hey doodle/terrier folks….we got something for you!

Meet Max! Max was originally surrendered when his owner could no longer care for him, and he was adopted quickly because… well… look at him. Unfortunately, puppyhood hit a little too hard and it ended up not being the right fit. So we are back to square one.

Here’s the honest parts:
✔️ He’s goofy, social, and LOVES people
✔️ Good with kids
✔️ Young enough to learn basically anything
✔️ He’s got that adorable “expensive doodle” look without the expensive doodle price tag (Only a $30 adoption fee!)

BUT…
⚡ He’s still very much a teen puppy
⚡ He needs a routine, consistency, and training
⚡ He may not be the best fit for cats or farm animals - so be prepared to test that out at your own risk
⚡ He might even test your patience before becoming your best friend 😂

His previous foster says they couldn’t even stay mad at him because he’s so dramatic and lovable. Honestly, Max is the kind of dog who will probably become AMAZING once someone commits to teaching him how to exist in civilized society.

He’s around 46 lbs, 6 months old, already neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and ready to go home. Adoption fee is only $30. What a deal for such a highly desired, designer breed?!

If you’ve been wanting a fun young dog you can truly shape into your adventure buddy, couch buddy, hiking buddy, emotional support menace… Max might be your guy. Peep the comments for his adoption or foster app and come by TODAY before he gets snagged up by someone other than YOU!

Returned to owner!

This dog was found off Hwy 8 near Hughart Rd in Po***ck. The finder believes the owners may live on Hughart Rd, but so far we have no leads as to who this handsome guy belongs to. Anyone recognize him or know anyone missing a dog like this? He wants to go back home - please share and help us reunite him with his family!

📲 Please text/call 318-321-0424 to claim or with any helpful info. 🐾
