Our featured pets this week are Catarina and Dasher.

Catarina is a gorgeous young adult Russian Blue mix. She is a beautiful solid gray with golden eyes. Catarina has a lovely temperament! She adores attention without being overbearing. She also gets along fine with other cats. If you are looking for that special kitty that will keep you company and be a friend to all, it would be hard to find a better match than this precious little girl!

Dasher is a happy and handsome two-year-old lab mix. He was surrendered to the humane society through no fault of his own. The living arrangements changed for his previous owner and the new landlord did not allow dogs. Dasher is an outgoing and friendly fellow and he has good manners and walks well on leash. He has been an inside dog and his previous owner says he is house-trained. Dasher has a lot of love to offer to his new family and he’s ready for a fresh start!

This Saturday at 12:30 p.m. is our monthly DBCHS obedience class. The class is held inside the service department at the Stuart Powell Ford Dealership on the 127 Danville Bypass. The class is free for those who have adopted from a shelter or rescue. Others are welcome to attend for a small donation to the Humane Society. Space is limited so please pre-register by Friday at noon. You may email dbchs@bellsouth.net or call the Humane Society at (859) 238-1117 to sign up. We hope to see you on Saturday!

Don’t forget! October is Adopt-A-Shelter Dog Month and the DBCHS is offering reduced adoption fee for the doggies. Adult dogs are just $50 and puppies are $65 and this includes all of the usual vet work including spay or neuter surgery. So, if you’re considering adding a puppy or dog to the family, come check out the cuties we have available for adoption.

Low-cost, high-quality spay/neuter surgery is available for pet owners with low and fixed incomes. Call our Happy Paws Clinic today at (859) 691-1137 for an appointment. Please help control pet over-population by having your pet spayed or neutered.
