Chewy is a sweet two-year-old Husky mix. He is a bit shy at first, but he warms up quickly. Amazingly, Chewy can jump straight up on all four paws, which is quite a trick! Can you find room in your heart and home for this guy? Come out and witness his amazing trick.
Watson here and I’ll bet that headline caught your eye. Yes, adoptions of dogs and cats will be free Friday through Sunday (Sept. 25-27). CAPS is extending the hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on all three days. Because of COVID, we are suggesting that you make an appointment to avoid waiting. Call 775-423-7500 for details.
This special is brought to you by Maddies’s Pet Project, and for each animal adopted our shelter will receive $200. It is a win-win proposition for everyone. If you have been thinking about getting a BFF (best furry friend) now is the time. Normally it costs $80 for dogs and cats.
All CAPS guests have been spayed/neutered, have current shots and are healthy. We have adorable dogs and fabulous cats. I am a graduate of CAPS, and I’m sure it would mean the world to all the animals to find a forever loving home.
It is quite an adjustment to be adopted after you have lived at CAPS. When you have been abandoned at a shelter, you don’t know what to expect. Fortunately, my mom and dad really love me, but it took me a while to adjust.
When I first came home, I was frightened. My dad gave me a bath and I spent the day lying on a little rug. I had to learn how to tell my folks I needed to go outside for the bathroom, because at CAPS I had my own outdoor loo.
I also had to learn a new daily routine. Every morning I eat breakfast, go for a walk and tend to business. Usually we head to the dog park where I meet friends and catch up on my pee mail. In the afternoon I nap. I know when it’s suppertime, because we always go for a walk before we eat. After supper dad and I settle on the couch for quality lounge time.
The best advice to folks who adopt a rescue pet is to have a routine to help your BFF adjust to his new life. Most of all be patient.
