Meet Fernando! In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, this 3-month-old handsome puppy was named after Fernando Lamas, an Argentinian actor. 📽️ Fernando Lamas was known for his good looks, and we think Fernando (the puppy) is following in his footsteps. Fernando is currently located at our Pet Adoption Center in New York City and is ready to steal the hearts of his future family. Like any puppy, Fernando has a lot of energy and will need lots of socialization, playtime, and love. Fernando would also benefit from training to help him become the best dog possible. To #adopt this handsome superstar today, DM @bfas_ny! 🤩 #SaveThemAll #HispanicHeritageMonth

When the dedicated staff at @rheacountyanimalshelter noticed that Tucker was not doing well in the kennels, they got to work quickly to find him a foster home where he could relax and decompress. And boy, did their efforts pay off for him! 🐶 Since being in a foster home, Tucker has made a complete 180! He has completely mellowed out and is no longer stressed. According to his foster mom, Tucker is completely housebroken, rides well in a car, and even has had some basic training. This smart boy knows the hand signs for both sit and down! Talk about impressive! Tucker is currently living in a foster home with small dogs, large dogs, AND cats and does great with all of them! He has also done excellent with kids and toddlers, making him a great family dog! 🙌 His foster describes him as a gentle giant and a big goofball! Despite him being large in size and only being a year and a half old, he is much more calm than you'd expect. Tucker has also never met a stranger and is goofy and sweet around everyone. Adopt this handsome and fun-loving guy today. Trust us; you do not want to miss out on him being a part of your family! Email [email protected] for more information! 🐾 #Adopt #SaveThemAll

We understand how difficult it can be to lose a pet, especially during the holiday season. This Tuesday join us for our monthly IG Live with Dr. Lawlor to discuss how to emotionally prepare for the holidays without our pet. Join us at 1 pm MT to hear from Dr. Lawlor, the @petlosspsychologist, and get helpful advice on how to make the holiday season a little easier. 🧡 This is a monthly series with @petlosspsychologist to discuss handling the loss of a pet, have your questions answered, and know you are not alone. 🌈

What was your reason for adopting your cat? ✨😺✨ There are so many good reasons, but getting to pamper and spoil a little friend is an extra bonus! 🧡
