‼🎉ADOPTION UPDATE!🎉‼

❤Remember Bentley???❤
Bentley first visited WCAS as a stray back in May of 2022, and after just a few days in our care, he was reclaimed by his owner. Fast-forward a year and a half later, and Bentley returned to WCAS, again as a stray, but this time ...his owner did not show up to reclaim him. While in our care, Bentley eagerly awaited adoption, and after being here for a little over a month, Bentley was adopted by an absolutely wonderful family!

Bentley's adopter shared these photos & this wonderful update with us-
🐾Bentley has been doing great he’s settled into his new forever home. He loves long naps and his long walks and run time at the park. He lives for car rides and pup cups. He is a very sweet dog and loves to cuddle. He’s a special part of our family now.🐾

📰🐾Dimitri was our Pet of the Week on Eyewitness News this morning with Meteorologist Joey Marino.🐾 📰

Dimitri is a gentle giant (80 pounds with weight to be gained) Shepherd who loves walks and the company of people. He was brought in as a stray when our officers were called out... to a dog running at large. Dimitri was on the run and hard to catch but was able to be lured into a van with the patience of our officers and a little cat food! Unfortunately, his owners never claimed him and he is now ready for a new adventure of finding a forever home.

Dimitri's human friends always remark at his kind eyes and calming disposition. He knows sit, shake, and seems to be house trained. He is an easy going guy who is great with people and other dogs!

👉Come meet with this handsome guy!

Hazel came to WCAS as a stray back in August of 2022 and was was never reclaimed by an owner. Thankfully, Hazel didn't have to spend too long at our facility without a home, she was quickly adopted by what is very clearly her ...forever family!

Hazel's adopter shared these photos & this wonderful update with us-
🐾This is Hazel! Looking for a puppy for my wife and I, when I came across hazel, this beautiful black dog caught my eye so quickly, she was one of the quietest dog in there, but was I mistaken, hazel loves to be vocal and loves to talk back and my wife and I think it's the best thing in the world.
She is one smart cookie, she loves playing with her sisters at my in-laws house. Loves her summer swims and walks in the woods. Shes so good with children, she will walk by their side making sure they are safe!
My wife and I could have not been happier with another dog she completes our family and is truly the best dog in the world!🐾

Behind these beautiful hazel eyes is a heart full of gold. 💛

Stu was brought to WCAS when our officers were called out to a call for a welfare check. It turns out there were some domestic issues in the home and Stu as well as a few other dogs were brought to the shelter where they would... be safe. He is now here patiently awaiting his new forever home! He is just a pup at 11 months old and has a good amount of energy. The staff here at the shelter think that Stu do great in a home willing to give him exercise and keep him busy! But don't worry, Stu has lots of love to give! He enjoys long walks with his human companions and snuggles after a long day of play! Stu will always let you know "You are so beautiful to him!" Do you think would be a good addition to your home?

Half of Stu’s adoption fee has been covered by Care for Pets! Adopt him today for a $75 adoption fee!
