Is that a toy? Oh boy oh boy! I can’t wait to play with it. You should throw it over there and let me fetch it to you. Oh, where are my manners, my name is Tango and I’m a 6 year old male, lab/retriever mix. I think it’d be a blast to play around and then relax with you at the end of the day. You should visit me at KHS and play with me. Until then you can view my adoption page

I’m a 3 year and 3 month old female, domestic short hair. I like to play and cuddle around with my friends. Enough about me though, let’s talk about how well we’d work together. You see, I need someone to play and cuddle with, and you just so happen to be a perfect candidate. Think about all the fun and special times we could have together. You can view my adoption page, but since I’m a foster kitty, you’ll have to call ahead to meet with me.

Hi all! My name is Misty and boy do I love to be around people. I’m a 3 year old female, boxer/mix. I’m a very mild mannered dog, but I do enjoy playing around with some toys. If you adopt me, we could be best friends forever! You should come by KHS and visit with me in person. I’ve been told I have one of those personalities that stick to you.

Meow! I’ll follow you around and be your best friend. Before I get too far ahead of myself, my name is Jessica and I’m a 2 year old female, domestic short hair. I really like cuddling, attention, and I purr easily. I might get a little shy around a bunch of people, but once I get used to them, I’ll be the center of attention. You should come down to KHS and visit with me today. Why you say? So you can see the cuddliest cat. Until then, you can view my adoption page

“He is a bundle of energy and has found a forever friend in our heeler mix, Max. He loves playing ball, frolicking in the snow and laying on his bed to enjoy a rawhide. He has made our family whole and we are so lucky to have found him. Thank you KHS!”

Did someone just call “here kitty kitty?” I know I heard it. That’s why I came running over here. See I just run right over whenever I hear that. Hmm…well now that I’m here, my name is Lucian and I’m a 4 year old male, domestic medium hair. I like being pet, rubbing my chin on things, and being around people. I’m not one of scaredy cats that’s shy around people. I ran right up to you when I heard kitty kitty. Anywho, you should stop by KHS and visit with me, I’m off to find out who is saying kitty kitty.

Animals form bonds not only with their owners, but with other animals. Sometimes it can be hard to fill a gap left behind from a lost companion. When Jake was adopted in July of 2011, he not only made a new friend, but he also picked up a few tricks on the way.

“We had lost two dogs the previous year to old age and our 5 year-old white German Shepherd, Sammi, needed a new pal. Jake has been the perfect addition. They get along wonderfully and she has helped teach him to swim and play frisbee. His enthusiasm and zest for life are off-the-charts, and we absolutely love having him. Thank you”
