Animal Fix

If you have any animal/pet photos you’d like to share for the regular fix please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say the name of your pet and your neighborhood. AdoPtville is run by a volunteer who compiles these pets weekly from local shelters.

Pumak is a happy, wiggly, waggy energetic guy. He loves to play games and chase balls – sometimes he even brings them back! He is also a great walking companion, saying hello to dogs and people alike, and he is starting to get the hang of ‘heel’ and keeping a loose leash. This smartie is responding well to training, and already knows the words “sit,” “touch” and “off”. Pumak is still learning what is a chew toy and what should be left alone, but given his love for treats and toys he redirects easily. He has made great progress with his mouthiness and nipping, but his adopter will need to continue training. Pumak is also a fan of giving kisses – lots and lots of them. He is currently learning that he doesn’t need to show his love all the time. Occasionally this cutie will have a hilarious fit of the “zoomies” Pumak is a great dog who knows how to bring joy to his people! Apply today to meet Pumak.

Just like in the Disney movie, “Toy Story,” playful kitty Andy is searching for his human Woody! The only thing dramatic about this easygoing and gentle cat is that fluffy tail of his– his foster mom calls it a “fluffy train of happiness.” And who couldn’t use some happiness?! Andy is an independent guy. He’ll love to find a nice spot under his favorite bed or couch and take a cat nap. Andy will greet you with purrs and rub against your legs when you come home– what a treat! Speaking of treats, Andy is extremely food motivated. He’s also super smart and only scratches on his stand up and catnip scratcher. So grab a red dot laser — Andy’s favorite toy– or even a string on a stick and apply to adopt this sweet boy!
