“Will you take me home?”

~Sparky, 9 months old, Pit Bull Mix

WHS’s Adoptable Dog of the Month

“[This] handsome guy is Sparky, a nine month old pit bull mix.  He is young, energetic and  very good natured and is looking for a home that can give him lots of things to do and really wants to make him a part of the family.”

~ Jess Townsend
Shelter Coordinator
The Washington Humane Society

Update on Fanta, another adoptable pup:

“Fanta has headed out to foster care and while she is still looking for a home, she gets to hang out in a foster home.”

“Will you take me home?”

~Fanta, 9 months old, Pit Bull Terrier

WHS’s Adoptable Dog of the Week

“She came to us because while her owner moved, [she was given] to a friend and the owner never came back for her. She has been here since March. She’s great outside her cage–she loves to play, loves balls and squeaky toys and has a ton of energy. She needs to find a home that will give her the basics of training and will give her plenty of exercise and lots of affection as she LOVES getting snuggles.

This month ThingsForPups donated over 100 lbs. of dog biscuits to the Washington Humane Society.

Since undergoing store renovation, some of our inventory were due to “expire” (the packages were marked with “Best Before” dates) so we could no longer keep them for sale.  These dog biscuits were stored in a cool, dry place and we just could not bear to think of completely disposing them!  Instead, we contacted the Washington Humane Society and asked if they could use them. They were more than happy to accept them:

“Thank you so much for the abundance of dog treats, we were so excited to get them.  I wanted to let you know that we did receive them yesterday…They will certainly go to good use!”

ThingsForPups donated both Newman’s Own Organics Dog Biscuits and Old Mother Hubbard All Natural Dog Treats in different flavors.  We hope these treats will not only help in the shelter dogs’ nourishment but also their training and overall well-being.
