If you’ve been considering adopting a new four-legged family member, please come to PetSmart this weekend during the PetSmart Charities National Adoption Event. This special adoption weekend will be held at more than 1,200 PetSmart stores nationwide. When you adopt during this event you will receive free food for your new pet as well as coupons for great savings.

Turbo is a mix of an English bulldog and a mountain cur, which makes him a very interesting dog. He is approximately 1 and-a-half years old. He has a wonderful personality and loves his people.

This sweet shepherd mix is between one and two years old. She is very frightened to be at the shelter and would do so much better if she was in a home. She walks great on a leash and appears to be very healthy. She loves affection.

Dogs get out of their yards, some runaway, others disappear and some are stolen. Often these dogs (and cats, pigs, horses, goats and chickens) wind up at the animal shelter.

Alfie is just a brown dog and that is what caught my eye because I knew he would be passed over for more colorful dogs but this is what I learned about him yesterday. He is calm, sweet, smart and respectful. He also appears to be house trained.

Blaze is still at the animal shelter! He is so sweet and such a calm, loving dog. It is hard to believe that no one has adopted him yet. I hope you will help us find him a home or possibly find someone interested in sponsoring him so we can buy extra time to find a home for sweet Blaze.
