Daisy Duke

Name: Daisy

Type/Breed: Dog/Yellow Lab Mix

Age: 1 year

History: Daisy has heartworm – a completely preventable, treatable parasite that dogs really only get when they are not cared for properly.  Daisy has been treated for heartworm, and she’ll have to take it easy for the next couple weeks while she recovers, but in about a month she should be good as new!!

Home Type: Daisy has spent her whole life as an outside dog with her sister Lucy. Labs are very friendly and people oriented dogs, they belong in a home, not chained outside in a yard. The most amazing thing about Daisy is that despite not getting a lot of attention over the past months, she still loves people and wants to be with people all the time! She is very gentle with kids and friendly with other dogs. She seems to be pretty good with cats, and she’s a little more mellow and timid than her sister. Daisy should go to home with another dog. She doesn’t like being alone, and she looks to her canine siblings for reassurance.

Minnie-Me!

Name: Minnie

Type/Breed: Dog/American Bulldog-Pointer Mix

Age: 3 years

History: Minnie is a sweet, loving, wonderful dog! She enjoys nothing more than to curl up on the couch next to you, if you let her! Minnie is very mellow and calm and will make a great companion or addition to any family. She is great with people, kids, and gets along with most dogs. Minnie has not had an easy life and deserves another chance to find a great home.

Home Type: Minnie would love a home that will take her for walks and be given lots of love! She walks well on a leash, knows some basic commands and is mostly house-trained. Minnie should be adopted to a home that has another dog to keep her company during the day or has an adult home most of the time since she doesn’t like being alone in the house.

Gracie the old Lady

Name: Gracie

Type/Breed: Cat/Brown Tabby

Age: Between 8 and 15 years

History: Gracie is a senior brown tabby who is missing all of her teeth. Gracie was found sitting in the middle of a busy road in West VA. The person that found her saw that she was underweight, infested with fleas and lethargic. After taking her home she found out that Gracie was missing all her teeth, making it difficult for her to catch her own food in the wild or even defend herself again predators. The lady that found her could not keep her because she is a bird breeder and felt that a cat would put her birds in danger, so she placed an ad on Craigslist to find a home for her. Gracie went into foster care with Four Paws cat rescue where she was deflea’d and brought up to a healthy weight eating canned cat food. Since that time she has remained in foster care for the past year and a half with no applicants.

Home Type: Gracie gets along with other cats and small dogs. She spends most of the day sleeping, but also enjoys watching television and cuddling from time to time.

How do I Adopt Gracie? Anyone that is interested in Gracie can email Florence at Florence_homer @ hotmail.com to arrange to meet her. Since she is a rescue through Four Paws, an application, vet references, home visit, and adoption fee will apply.
