He's small but he's mighty...

🥊💥Weighing in at a whopping 13lbs, our little guy Rascal is ready to wrestle his way into your heart! 💥🥊

He may be tiny, but he's got a heavyweight amount of love to give. Who's ready to take on this little champion? 🏆

Rascal is around 1 year old, neutered, heartworm negative, and UTD on shots. He would do well with children and other pets, so bring the whole family for a visit!

Sweet as pumpkin pie... 🎃

Rambo is a friendly senior Staffordshire terrier mix. He's 10 years old and prefers to be right by your side, so he needs a home where he won't be left alone often. Rambo loves other dogs, so a big family won't be a problem for him! Feel free to bring any resident dogs by for a meet-n-greet, Rambo will give them a warm, slobbery welcome! He is neutered, up to date with his shots, and heartworm negative. Rambo currently takes Apoquel for his itchy pittie skin.

No, you're not seeing double...

There really are TWO of these cuties!!! 🐾🐾

Meet our bonded sisters Sally and Helena, who are looking for their forever home together. Double the kisses, double the cuddles, and double the puppy love! What could be better than that?!

Sally and Helena are 9 years old and still totally full of energy! They love to play in the yard together and will run right up to say hello to new friends. These two are affectionate and warm up easily. Come meet our girls, I guarantee they'll love you!

🎃🍂 These four are falling into furever homes! 🍂🎃

The leaves aren't the only things changing this fall! Four of our animals are starting a new chapter with their forever families this week, and we couldn't be more grateful!

There's nothing better than sending the animals we love home for the holidays. Arlo, Stormy, Taz, Peanut, we'll miss you!!

UPDATE ADOPTED!!

KISS CAM! 💋
Are you leaning in?

Arlo is now available at Fairhaven Animal Shelter. Come show him some love!

Arlo is under a year old and already stealing hearts. He is playful, affectionate, and a wicked fast learner. He may get up to some puppy antics, but he is obedient if you're willing to be the boss (he might even pose for a photo 📸!!)

Apply for Arlo here ^^^^^ or in-person at FAS!

We encourage bringing resident dogs for a meet-n-greet!

💙 Luke and Blue: Brotherly-love times two!! 💙

Luke and Blue aren't just brothers, they're best buddies! These two share a loyal bond derived from shared history, unconditional support, affection, and sometimes a little sibling rivalry. ☺️

Luke and Blue are a team, and looking for a home together. These two are gentle giants, and would make wonderful family pets. They will be 7 years old in November, walk calmly on leash, and prefer to share a bed where possible!

Please bring resident dogs for a meet-n-greet! Luke and Blue wouldn't mind having even more love to go around.

Love cats? Why get just one?! 😻
Taz and Peanut love to snuggle down in their beds, but will pop right up for a good scratch! Taz and Peanut are 3 & 4 years old respectively and come as a bonded pair. Both cats are friendly, gentle, and acclimated to house-cat life. These two will make wonderful family pets!

Come visit Taz and Peanut at FAS!
