Furry Tails: Boots, Lydia, Bentley, Stitch & Harriet Are Waiting For Forever Homes
Are you looking to bring a pet into your home? Local animal shelters are a great place to find a furry companion. So, as part of Furry Tails, I'll be doing an ongoing feature on adoptable pets from local animal shelters once a week. If you have room in your heart and are looking to bring a lovable ball of fur into your home, maybe one of these guys is meant to be a part of your family!

Stitch
Animal Protectors of Allegheny Valley
Animal Protectors of Allegheny Valley Pet Profile:
Stitch is about 1-year-old and is around 40 pounds. He was found as a stray and ended up at Sable Kennel in McKeesport. Stitch was transferred to Animal Protectors in the hopes that he would find a loving home as a result of having more exposure in a different area.
Stitch wasn't in the best shape when he arrived at Sable. His ears were poorly cropped and someone had put staples in his ears. He will have the staples removed once he gains some weight and it is safe to put him under anesthesia.
Stitch is a very mellow dog and loves people. He also gets along well with other dogs, and we believe would do well in a home with cats.
Stop by during our open hours to meet with him!

Harriet
Rabbit Wranglers
Rabbit Wranglers Pet Profile:
Spayed / neutered, special needs. Harriet has trust/fear issues. Harriet's foster mom shares the following about her behavior: Harriet is very afraid of being picked up. If she thinks that you will be picking her, she will box you (hit you with her front paws). Sometimes her anxiety can get more intense if she isn't getting enough exercise. Be sure to have lots of out of the pen time as often as possible and reward Harriet with a treat for going back to her pen when play time has ended. Things that calm her down are: petting the top of her head, treats, hung-up towels to hide under, quiet reading in her pen, and free roaming.
