Furry Tails: Shamrock & Snap Are Searching For Good Homes

Are you looking to bring a pet into your home? Local animal shelters are a great place to find a furry companion. So, as part of Furry Tails, I'll be doing an ongoing feature on adoptable pets from local animal shelters once a week. If you have room in your heart and are looking to bring a lovable ball of fur into your home, maybe one of these guys is meant to be a part of your family!

Shamrock

Animal Friends
Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, this little lassie is looking for a loving home! Shamrock is a shy and sweet girl who needs a family that will give her lots of love!

Animal Friends says:
Check out that mane! Shamrock definitely knows how to rock a 'do!

This little lassie is gentle and sweet, but she's also rather shy. While she likes to be pet and snuggled, she has to get to know you first. Shamrock was surrendered because her last family was just too busy for this demure bunny. If your family has older, respectful kids, then Shamrock may be a good fit for you.

We know that Shamrock likes to be around other bunnies and an outgoing bun might help her come out of her shell. If you're already a rabbit-loving home, please ask about having a bunny meet-and-greet or even a bonding session!

If you have a quiet, patient home, please consider meeting Shamrock. She has a lot of love to give to the right family.

If you can help, come to Animal Friends at 562 Camp Horne Road, Pittsburgh, Pa., 15237 or call 412-847-7002. For more information on how you can adopt any of the pets at Animal Friends, visit their website here!

Animal Rescue League says:
Meet Snap, a handsome one year old Pit/Boxer mix. In addition to his good looks and friendly personality, Snap is one of the smartest dogs I've ever known! He has been attending Obedience Classes at the shelter and he has quickly mastered "Sit," "Down," "Stay," and "Leave It." He seems to get along with the other dogs in the class, as well, and he's also shown signs of being house-trained, although it's always wise to reinforce this after a dog has spent time in a shelter environment. When he's not working at being an A + student, Snap enjoys toys of all kinds, (tennis balls are a particular favorite of his), and he also participates in our "Dog Jog" program, where he accompanies volunteers who are runners. He is an excellent running partner!

When it's time to relax, Snap enjoys nothing more than settling down for a good cuddle If you're looking for a smart, friendly, energetic dog, Snap is your boy! He is going to make some lucky person or family very happy. If you think that could be you, please stop by the shelter to meet him and see for yourself what a great dog he is!
