📍PETPALOOZA 2026

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at Petpalooza this weekend! We loved meeting so many animal lovers, sharing stories about our shelter pets, and watching our furry friends soak up all the attention. Your support, kind words, and enthusiasm mean the world to us, and to the animals waiting for their forever homes. We can’t wait to see you again next year!

Every wagging tail in this photo is hoping their next adventure leads straight to a forever home. These sweet pups are ready to trade kennel doors for cozy couches, belly rubs, and a family to call their own. Whether they’re goofy, cuddly, playful, or shy, each one has so much love waiting to give. Could your home be the happy ending they’ve been dreaming of?

We have different hours today but the same great animals will be waiting to meet you! We will be opening at 2 pm Feb.4-5...
