Have a Heart this Valentine’s Day

By Kristan Bond

Looking for love that will last a lifetime? Just look through this month’s adoptables and Cupid’s arrow is sure to strike! Many of these wonderful animals have had such a rough time; being abandoned by the people they looked to for love and protection. Left by people they trusted and now terrified they’ll never find a real home or family to love them again. Please consider adopting one of this month’s amazing cats or dogs and help change, and save, a life!

  • Chocolate is a handsome 75 lb. Lab mix that was left alone in an abandoned home. No food, no water. He's just 4-5-years-old, neutered, housebroken, and good on a leash. He’s great with other dogs and older kids but no cats, please. This super smart, very gentle boy knows how to “sit” when asked and is totally sweet. People can be so cruel, this pup is a lover! Tri County Humane Society is located at 21287 Boca Rio Rd., Boca Raton. Call 561.482.8110 or visit www.tricountyhumane.org.

  • Mr. Kitty is a SUPER sweet, proud 7-year-old neutered male who was just left at the shelter recently for no reason. While he's adjusted well to the cat room and gets along with the 100+ roommates he has, but he'd sure love to be YOURS in the New Year! he’s such a purr-fect kitty, you won’t be sorry. Tri County Humane Society is located at 21287 Boca Rio Rd., Boca Raton. Call 561.482.8110 or visit www.tricountyhumane.org.

  • Blue is an 11-month-old, neutered Weimaraner/Staffordshire Terrier mix that is just 60 lbs. of love. He’s housebroken, smart, loving and good with cats and other dogs, and is just waiting for his happily-ever-after! To meet him is to love him. Tri County Humane Society is located at 21287 Boca Rio Rd., Boca Raton. Call 561.482.8110 or visit www.tricountyhumane.org.

  • Brooklyn is an approximately 6 month old Pit Bull Terrier mix. She weights 40lbs and is still growing tall! Brooklyn has big floppy ears that show off her goofy personality. She gets along with humans, dogs and cats, and  is potty and crate trained. Brooklyn is full of energy and life, and she wants a home to call her own! Brooklyn is being fostered in Pompano Beach. Contact Kate@ladyluckanimalrescue.com or call 754.366.3669 for more information or adoption application.

  • Twiggy is an energetic, fun-loving Terrier Mix (maybe Rat Terrier/Smooth Fox Terrier mix) She has bunny soft fur, a long curly tail and weighs about 12 lbs. Twiggy is playful with other dogs and is very loving. She can run fast and jump high, so get ready for some fun games of Frisbee in the park! Chesed Rescue can be reached at 561.213.5773 or visit www.chesed-rescue.org for an application.

  • Eve is an approximately 2-year-old Shepherd mix who weighs 30 lbs. She was found on the side of the road, hungry and with mange, but she was still very loving and so grateful to the person who rescued her. Eve has been treated by a vet and is currently perfect and healthy but is currently just boarding and desperately needs a foster or forever home. She loves to play and gets along with other dogs and even cats and just loves people, she needs someone to love her. To meet Eve, please call Kathy at 305.401.4693 or Mirta at 305.484.1349.
