Canine playtime isn't all fun and games... but don't tell the dogs that. 🀐

Dog playgroups are an essential part of shelter life. Not only do they provide valuable mental and physical enrichment, but they also help dogs maintain important social skills and can reduce the risk of frustration and reactivity that can develop when dogs are isolated from their canine companions for extended periods of time.

So I guess you could say it is all fun and games ... with a very important purpose. πŸ’›

International Picnic Day is today?? Maeve wants in! πŸ‰πŸ₯ͺ🐾

This velcro dog is ready to hit the trails, soak up the sunshine, curl up in your lap like she's an 8-pound lap dog (she is, in fact, not πŸ˜…), and steal your heart the same way she's stolen all of ours.

Maeve has been working hard on her training and has learned so many new skills and commands during her stay with us. She's smart, eager to learn, and always ready to show off what she knows. At this rate, she's practically preparing for her debut in the obedience ring!

Since entering the shelter, Maeve has developed some frustration-based reactivity around other dogs. While she has not yet been introduced to another dog here, we believe that with continued training, consistency, and the right guidance, she can make great progress and get back to being the dog she was before shelter life threw her a curveball.

Maeve has been waiting for her family since March, and she is more than ready to trade her kennel for a picnic blanket, hiking buddy, and a place to finally call home. ❀️

We know how incredible you all were when you shared Zola's post and she got her happy ending thanks to YOU - do we think we can do the same for Maeve and share her story?

*Update: these piggies were adopted!*

Rocco and Ricci care about three things in life:

🐹 Each other
πŸ’– Ear scritches
🌿 Snacks

And now, after not having any small animals in our care for some time, we are running a little low on guinea pig treats!

The boys are demanding... we mean politely requesting... a better variety of yummy munchies to help keep their piggie bellies satisfied. 😌

Some of their favorite treats include rose petals, dried herbs, forage blends, and other guinea pig-safe goodies.

If you'd like to spoil Rocco and Ricci, donations of guinea pig treats can be dropped off at UVHS or sent directly from our wishlist.

The boys thank you in advance for supporting their snack habit.

WE HAVE BIG NEWS, EVERYONE!

πŸŽ‰πŸ’› ZOLA FOUND HER FOREVER HOME! πŸ’›πŸŽ‰

So many people played a role in helping Zola find her happily ever after, and we could not be more grateful or overjoyed.

Eight months is a long time to wait for a family. For eight months, Zola watched other dogs come and go while she remained behind. But over this past weekend, she has traded her Kuranda bed behind chain link for cozy nights sharing beds with her very own family.

Her new mom shared this update:

"She's such a love, and we are so, so, SO grateful to have her!

My chest got tight when I read how long she'd been looking for a home. I knew we had to see if we were the right fit for her.

She is such a gentle, goofy love! She has tried out all three of her beds and has decided she definitely prefers the human beds (smart lady!). She loves to follow us around, and we LOVE being followed by her.

Our orange cat has made it his mission to stay close... but not too close. Zola has been cautiously curious as well. She's so jumpy and goofy around such a small creature that it's hilariously adorable.

She is a fabulous walking partner, and I look forward to helping her become more comfortable around other dogs and people.

I can't express our joy and gratitude enough. We are so lucky to have her. ❀️❀️❀️"

To Zola's new mom: thank you for seeing what we all saw in her. Thank you for opening your heart and home to a dog who waited far too long for her chance.

And to everyone who shared her posts, cheered her on, donated toward her care, worked with her, advocated for her, and never gave up on her, this happy ending belongs to you, too.

We couldn't have asked for a better happily ever after for this sweet girl. πŸ’›

500 Days of Summer? Nah, how about...

104 Days of Snickers 🌿🌞

Snickers has been with us for (you guessed it) 104 days.

In that time, she hasn't let her neurologic deficits slow her down one bit. Matter of fact, she may just be the happiest-go-luckiest girl around.

As a puppy, she was the last in her litter to be born. Because she became stuck in the birth canal, we suspect she experienced hypoxia (a lack of oxygen to the brain). That's how we ended up with the goofy prancing, wobbly, back-turtling, wonderfully silly girl we know and love today.

We truly hope she doesn't have much longer to wait for a family of her own. This sweet girl has already been through enough in her first few years of life, and despite it all, she remains the embodiment of sunshine, warmth, and lighthearted joy. πŸ’›

We have a Rumplestiltskin and Newt update! πŸŽ‰

His new mom says, " I had the pleasure of adopting Rumplestiltskin in March this year, and later a little kitten named Newt.

If anyone might remember Rumple, you know that he is a very shy little guy. We’ve slowly warmed up to each other, but since bringing Newt home, Rumple has made strides!

He is now sleeping in bed with me and Newt, allowing for much more petting, he’s meowing and purring all the time, and as of this morning, rubbing against my legs. I’m not sure if Rumple quite loves his little brother yet, but baby Newt has been the magic elixir for him.

Newt is the sweetest little baby, and I’m certain he could warm even the coldest of hearts. Rumple is such a funny guy. I am so grateful to you all for bringing me together with my cats. They mean the world to me."

Congratulations!!
