🐾 Is it Labrador Day?

It’s Loki. I’m still here, and I’m pretty sure today is supposed to be Labrador Day… like ME. 😎

I’ve been waiting patiently for my forever family, so what better day to remind you that I’m still here, still handsome, and still hoping you’ll come meet me? ❤️

Of course, all our locations are closed today. I’m being told it’s actually Labor Day. 🙄

Come meet this good boy and make every day Labrador Day!

Wishing you and your pets a safe and happy Labor Day! ❤️🐶🐱

🔊 Sound on for Trombone’s adorable little meows! 🥹🎺

This sweet 2-year-old is a little shy, a little sassy, and a whole lot of lovable. She’s on the small side too, so basically a permanent kitten. 😻

Trombone needs a patient person who will give her time to feel safe and let her come out of her shell at her own pace.

Think you could be her person? ❤️ Learn more about Trombone and check her latest availability on our website.
