American Shorthair
These two handsome kitties are Bodhi and Bondai. They were adopted from DAWS a couple years ago but now a family member is allergic and these boys need to find a new home together. Bodhi has soft medium-length grey fur and Bondai has short-length brown tabby fur. The current owners say "Bondai is a very attentive boy and will follow you around everywhere to keep you company. If you sit on the couch, he will sit next to you. If you are cooking in the kitchen, he will lay in the kitchen and watch. Like most cats, he is shy at first but his curiosity takes over shortly and he will come out to greet strangers and ask to play. He is very vocal and thinks he can speak and will do so whenever he wants to play, is hungry or just needs attention. Bondai is incredibly playful. He mostly likes to play with his brother Bodhi. He loves a good game of fetch. He will bring you a toy and every time you throw it, he will bring it back and ask for it to be thrown again. Bondai is very sweet and always keeps us entertained with his energy. Bodhi is very shy and usually won’t come out if we have guests. If he does, it’s after hours and watches from a distance. He is VERY cuddly, Bondai will sit next to you but Bodhi will sit on you. He loves a good petting and LOVES to be brushed. Bodhi is a boy that needs a lot of affection and cuddles. He also loves to play and can play alone but prefers to play with his brother Bondai. Bodhi is a very loving and kind cat. He is very gentle and loving especially towards his brother who he loves to groom. He is a funny boy too who you will find relaxing in crazy positions." These kitties are vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and healthy. The adoption fee for the pair is $300. They are staying in their current home until a new forever home is found.

He is not shy and I think he truly believes everything is a toy. He just wishes he was bigger so he could reach the cool stuff! Frosty is in full throttle puppy mode. He would rather hang with everyone but does quiet down in his puppy pen. He is in the beginning stages of housetraining and pee pads are helping. Frosty wants to play with my big dogs so badly but he is the little brother and they don't want him around. He is teething but can be easily diverted which is a plus! Frosty seems to have a Velcro pup demeanor, so watch your step. Where you go, he will go. He is very curious and his small stature gives him the ability to get into small spaces. He does like his treats--his little round belly gives that away!" Frosty is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and healthy. His adoption fee is $445. If you would like to meet/adopt Frosty, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms. Email daws@daws.org if you need assistance or have any questions.

Husky
This gorgeous girl is Jenna. She is a 3-year-old husky and weighs 37 lb. Jenna is a husky with a big personality. She is confident and commands attention. Jenna does the typical husky “grumble” and was walking around with a ball in her mouth while doing so. She gets so happy when you are willing to play fetch with her but if not, she will start to toss the ball to herself. She would make a great active companion for someone looking for a playful hiking buddy who would love to join in on adventures. She does have higher energy requirements and would do best with an owner able to meet those needs. She can be grabby when it comes to food and will jump up to grab treats out of your hand so we think older dog-savvy children would be best. She would enjoy a high energy doggie playmate but might have too much energy for a cat. Jenna is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and healthy. Her adoption fee is $395. If you would like to meet/adopt Jenna, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms or stop by at our shelter Wednesday-Sunday between 12 and 6 PM.

Terrier
This adorable girl is Doodlebug. She is 4-years-old and weighs just 20 lb. We think she is a terrier mix.

American Shorthair
This handsome boy is Linus. He is a 7-month-old short haired tuxedo. Linus's life started out rough, being outside and feral for the first two months of his life. His foster says "Linus has adjusted well over the past five months in our care. He is so loveable now and loves attention, whether it is petting or playing with toys. He just recently found his voice and it is a joy to hear him talk when we enter the room. Linus will do well as a solo pet or with other cats, but will need time to adjust to his new surroundings in any situation. Linus has not been introduced to dogs, so we are not sure how he will react." Linus is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and healthy. His adoption fee is $150.

Look at these pictures and guess what is Bubbles' favorite toy. That's right...Lambchop! Bubbles is a 3-year-old lab mix and weighs 50 lb. He has the the cutest stub tail and the most adorable ears. Bubbles was a local owner surrender and went from living outside in a yard to now living at a loving and supportive foster home. His foster says "Bubbles is a different dog than when I first got him.

German Shepherd Dog
Zorro is our longest resident at DAWS and has been here for four years. During that time, this 70 lb. six-year-old shepherd mix has been working very hard on training and we believe his time has come to find his furever home! Back in 2019, when Zorro first arrived to DAWS after being saved from a high kill shelter in Kentucky, he began developing some behavioral challenges, making it difficult to find him the right home. Through extensive training, Zorro has proved himself to be a pup that can develop solid friendships with humans, and even befriend select dogs. Zorro has been trained using treats and he eagerly sits, lies down and gives a paw on command. He’s done very well with car rides. He has enjoyed many hikes, walks, and play-time with his volunteer team. Time and time again, he has shown what a good boy he is, he just needs to find that special person! With a dog like Zorro, he will need a very specific adopter... Zorro Owner Requirements: • Experienced dog owner • Adult-only home with no kids or future children • Must be the only pet in the home • Has to have an understanding of positive reinforcement training • House with a fenced yard of at least 6 ft. • Willing to slowly introduce Zorro to people close to the family and educate them on Zorro’s do’s & don'ts • Come and meet Zorro multiple times If you think you can be the hero that Zorro needs, please complete our online application. Here is the link to the app: https://daws.org/daws-forms/ Zorro’s adoption fee is discounted for veterans that are members of the organization Pets for Patriots. The discounted fee for him is $100.
