Provide a Pet a Pad Tuesday

Very friendly! Loves to play! Cherry looks to be Bull Terrier mix, you know, like the Target dog. Cherry has some independence which is great because she can entertain herself with dog toys for hours but when you call her, she will quickly trot to your side.

Ruby is a beautiful brindle pup that looks to be mixed with some sort of smaller breed, possible terrier. When she first came into the shelter she was very skinny and shy. Now she is playful and loves to give hugs and kisses. She doesn't always come up to the front of the kennel and in dim light, you may miss that she is even in the kennel!

Sugar is a beautiful male Akita that is at our local animal shelter. He has a strong personality and may not be suitable for a home with small children. Sugar got along great with all of the small dogs that were in the exercise area. He carries himself in a way that lets you know he is the boss.

Zeus is a nine month old Shepherd mix that is already neutered, house trained, great on a leash, great with kids, loves other dogs and gets along with cats too! He is gorgeous with light brown, long hair and a black outline around his sweet eyes.

This sweet, very young heeler is at the animal shelter in Texarkana. She was very scared when we were inside the shelter but once she got into the exercise area she really loosened up and started enjoying herself.

These photos and videos were taken on Monday, Aug. 17 of dogs and puppies on the adoption floor at the animal shelter in Texarkana, ARK. The shelter had close to 40 animals surrendered by owners and strays dropped off yesterday. That number is astounding. Please share these videos on your social media pages to help get the word out.

Many people have recently mistakenly thought that our animal shelter in Texarkana was a no kill shelter. That simply is not possible. Our shelter is an "open admission" shelter, which means they take everything that is surrendered. The animal shelter in Texarkana is a "high kill shelter." Find out why and how you can help change it.

Odie is a gorgeous Catahoula dog. He has an even temperament. He is known as the "lazy dog" at the shelter but trust me, this boy has enough energy to do whatever you have in mind for the day. He is just pretty laid back the rest of the time.

Ethan is a very sweet and smart puppy. He is going to be a large dog. His eyes are stunning and his personality is fantastic. He walks great on a leash. I was amazed at how easy it was to get him out of his kennel.

You will often see posts and videos on our station website. Have you ever wondered what happened to the dogs? I have some happy tails stories to give you a great feeling from sharing articles and videos from the animal shelter.

Today's featured pet is an adorable, sweet puppy. He came into the shelter a week or so ago and was spunky but now he is not. It could be for many different reasons, some being very simple to fix and others may require more expense and recovery time. The shelter does not have the funds to take dogs to the vet so he will need to be rescued to be saved.
