💔 Eight puppies found their happily-ever-afters. Their mama is still waiting for hers.

Meet Chicka Dee, a 3-year-old black-and-white spayed female Pit Bull whose next chapter is long overdue. Before coming to us, she had already had two litters of puppies. Over several weeks, she and eight of her older puppies were surrendered to our shelter.

Every single one of those babies found a home. Now, 148 days later, Chicka Dee is still here. 🥺

She is our longest shelter resident and the last member of our 100 Day Club. But to our staff and volunteers, she is so much more than a number. From the moment she arrived, this incredibly sweet, lovable girl won our hearts. We love her dearly—and we want so badly for someone to know and love her the way we do.

Chicka Dee has spent enough time being someone’s mama. She deserves a chance to be someone’s baby. ❤️

Her perfect family will understand that she needs the right animal companions. She can be dog selective, seems to prefer male dogs, and requires a meet and greet with any potential canine companions her size or larger. Because of her high prey drive, she cannot live with small dogs, cats, or other small animals.

And her biggest quirk? Squirrels! 🐿️ Chicka Dee takes squirrel patrol very seriously and would happily appoint herself your backyard’s squirrel supervisor.

Somewhere out there is a family who will see this sweet girl and think, “That’s our dog.” Please help us find them.

Come meet Chicka Dee at The Colony Animal Services. If you can’t adopt, please share. Her puppies have all started their new lives. It’s time their mama gets to start hers. 🐾

LEONARD HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!

Meet Leonard! He has been at our shelter for 252 days!!

One of our long time volunteers decided he so badly needed a day trip. And as our longest resident, he earned it.

Leonard got to experience: car rides, chicken nuggets, Lowe’s, a local pet store, and so much more!

Leonard is friendly with people but takes a little bit to warm up to children.

He loves dogs similar in size to him but needs meet and greets to ensure compatibility. He will need a dog companion in the home to teach him normal dog things. Leonard’s favorite thing is to play chase; wether the dogs are chasing him or he’s chasing them. Oh and playing in the pool/splash pad of course (another video to come of that).

Leonard has spent too long in a shelter waiting for a family. All of his siblings have found theirs, now it’s his turn!

🐾 FELINE FRIDAY: RUMPELSTILTSKIN! 🐾

You don’t have to guess his name to win his heart! 💛 Rumpelstiltskin is a 2-year-old neutered male tabby whose favorite thing is simply being with you.

This mellow, friendly youngster takes just a little time to decide you’re friendship material—then he’s ready to follow you around and tell you all about his day! 😻 He has the cutest little voice and a whole collection of sounds to make sure you’re listening.

His dream home? A fairly quiet place with easygoing people, soft cushions for making biscuits, and a window perch for watching the world. He should do well with children old enough to be gentle, and he seems interested in making friends with sweet, silly cats! 🐈

Rumpelstiltskin may feel a little unsure about being picked up at first, so give him time to get comfortable. Once he trusts you, he enjoys the attention! Wand toys and toys that move beneath a sheet have caught his eye, and gentle playtime will help him settle in.

He does have opinions about the menu! 🍽️ His new family will need a little patience while discovering his favorite foods—but this handsome boy’s friendship is worth getting to know his tastes.

✨ A comfy spot, a gentle family, and someone to chat with—that’s his happily ever after.

Come meet Rumpelstiltskin at The Colony Animal Services! 🏡💕

🐾💛 AMBER HAS THE SMILE—SHE JUST NEEDS THE FAMILY! 💛🐾

Meet Amber, an almost 2-year-old spayed Lab/Pyrenees mix with a bright mind, a playful spirit, and plenty of love to share! This beautiful girl loves snuggles, belly rubs, and a good game of tug-of-war. Her favorite place? Right beside her people! 🥰

Amber is smart and picks up new commands quickly. She’s still working on her leash manners and sometimes jumps when excited, so she’ll need a family ready to help her practice. She also has plenty to say! A house with a fenced yard would give this talkative girl room to play and enjoy herself. 🏡🎾

🐶 Amber is dog-friendly! A meet and greet with any potential canine siblings is required.
👧 Amber needs a home with children ages 10 and up only. She does not do well with young children.

Ready for a sweet, curious companion who will fill your days with playtime, cuddles, and a little conversation? Come meet Amber at The Colony Animal Services! 🐕💛

📣 Please share to help Amber find her forever family!

💙🐾 STOP SCROLLING—YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND HAS ICY BLUE EYES! 🐾💙

Meet Navi, a gorgeous girl with a blue merle coat, a playful spirit, and a whole lot of love to give! This 1½-year-old spayed Catahoula/Retriever mix is ready to trade shelter life for adventures, tennis balls, and a spot beside you on the couch. 🎾🏡

Navi’s idea of a perfect day? A walk with her favorite person, a game of catching tennis balls, and then cuddling up for a well-earned nap. She’s got the enthusiasm to join in the fun and the affectionate side to make a quiet evening feel extra special. 🥰🛋️

Those beautiful eyes might catch your attention, but her loyal, loving personality is what will steal your heart. Navi is looking for someone to share both the exciting moments and the everyday ones—because having a best friend makes them all better! 💕

🐶 Have another dog? Navi does well with other dogs! A meet-and-greet with any resident pups is required to make sure everyone is a good match.
👧 Have children? Navi does well with respectful children.

✨ Ready for a little more play, a lot more love, and a beautiful girl to share your couch? Come meet Navi at The Colony Animal Services!

WALLACE IS ADOPTED!

❤️ His brothers found their homes. Wallace is still waiting for his turn.

This sweet 5-month-old Labrador/Pit Bull mix is the last of the brothers still looking for a forever family—and he has so much love to give! With his handsome black-and-white coat and adorable floppy ears, Wallace is ready to become someone’s favorite little shadow. 🐾

His favorite place? Right beside you, as close as he can get, handing out puppy kisses! 😘

Wallace is neutered, treat motivated, and practicing “sit.” He’ll need a patient family to help with potty training, crate training, walking on a leash and harness, and basic commands. He’s also a little underweight and needs help reaching a healthy weight as he grows.

His brothers have started their next chapters. Let’s help Wallace start his. 🏡

Come meet Wallace at The Colony Animal Services, and please share to help his future family find him! ❤️
