January adoption special: “You Ain’t Nothin’ But A Hound Dog”
During January Animal Services is celebrating Elvis Presley’s Birthday by offering a $50 discount off the regular adoption fee for all hound dogs and hound mixes. With the discount, puppies will be just $45, adult dogs $25, and senior dogs (6 years and older) will be free! There are endless varieties among the hound breeds which include everything from Beagles, Bassets, Greyhounds, Bloodhounds, Coonhounds, Foxhounds, and Dachshunds to Afghans, Basenjis, Borzois, and Elkhounds plus many more. Among the hounds you will find dogs that are clever, lively, and loyal making them very popular family pets. They are an excellent choice for children and bond with the whole family including other pets.

Pet Bio
Name: Society
ID #: 459570
Breed: Florida Curr
Sex: Male
Age: One year old
Color: Brindle
Comments: I am a very handsome boy and smart too! I’m learning my basics and in no time I’ll be showing off all my new skills. I already know how to sit and come and I’m working on walking nicely on the leash. Sometimes I’m so excited to play that I forget to slow down. I know I’d get to do all my tricks and play in a new home. I’ve been at the shelter since November. Won’t you visit me and see if I’m the dog you’ve always wanted.
Adoption Fee: $25 during January’s Adoption Special celebrating Elvis Presley’s Birthday (all hound dogs and hound mixes, including Florida Currs, are $50 off the regular adoption fee).
Name: Ollie & Fran
ID #: 463032 (Ollie), 463029 (Fran)
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Sex: Male – both
Age: 2 months old
Color: Orange Tigers with white paws
Comments: Hi, I’m Ollie. My brother Fran and I were abandoned. We are just baby orphans that need new homes. Won’t you consider adopting one or maybe even both of us? We promise to be double the fun. We are learning all of the social graces like using the litter box (we’ve got that down), sitting nicely for nails trims (we don’t like it but know the importance of good grooming), eating all of our food (also not a problem). Wouldn’t you love to take home two adorable kittens like us?
Adoption Fee: The adoption fee for a kitten is $75 including sterilization, vaccinations and everything we need for our age.
