Our dog of the week is Macy, a beautiful mixed breed gal about two and half years old. Her dark eyes and perky pink ears set off her pretty face, and she greets everyone with a grin. Macy’s favorite hobbies include being absolutely adorable and charming the socks off everyone she meets. When she had the opportunity to hang out in the office, she was excited but respectful. After sniffing all of the things, she curled up behind the desk and quietly snored.

Macy is looking for a home that will provide her with ample opportunity to use her top-level skills as a toy tester. Her specialty is squeaky toys, and according to her rating system (chewability, bounciness, and squeak factor), the rubber chicken in the meet and greet room is simply the best. She gives it two paws up.

Macy is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, and ready to go to her new home. Are you the person to shower her with all the toys she deserves? Bring your dog and family to meet her, weekdays between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Call 859-238-1117 to make sure she’s still available and complete an online application to save time: https://bit.ly/2Qo4EfE.

If a kitten is more your style, then look no further than Daisy, an 8-week old buff-colored cutie. Her pink nose has brown spots that make it look perpetually dirty! Daisy likes to play with her sisters, attack the scratching post, and bask in the sun on a soft blanket. She’s been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and holds her own. Daisy is used to traveling back and forth from her foster home to the humane society and is a champ at riding in a travel carrier.

Daisy’s three siblings have already been spoken for, and she’s wondering when it will be her turn. Make Daisy’s dream come true and complete an application now: https://bit.ly/3orH3Hc. Meet more fabulous felines at dbchs.org/adopt and on our direct placement adoption site: dbchs.home-home.org.

An estimated 10 million pets go missing each year – don’t let yours be one of them! Microchipped pets are more likely to be reunited with their family, which is why DBCHS is hosting a microchipping clinic on Saturday, Sept. 25, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

Dr. Stephanie Raispis from Wilderness Trace Veterinary Clinic will be implanting microchips for a donation of $20, cash or check only, please. Space is limited so reserve your spot now; email karikuh@dbchs.org. No matter what microchip service you use, DBCHS encourages you to register your pet’s chip with FoundAnimals.org. a nonprofit organization that provides free lifetime registration of any brand chip.

DBCHS is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) established in 1972 that promotes the humane treatment of animals through compassionate care, engagement, and support. To donate, please visit DBCHS.org/give or mail a check to DBCHS P.O. Box 487, Danville, KY 40423-0487. We’re grateful for our generous community.
