Provide a Pet a Pad Tuesday

Here are some videos that were taken on May 14, 2014 at our animal shelter in Texarkana. Please take a moment to look through these videos to see if you recognize any of the dogs. They are all downstairs which means they are not on the adoption floor and may never make it that far.

Rhyme is very friendly! He loves people and other dogs. He is a bit calmer than most small dogs of his breed although he does still have plenty of energy to keep up with the family. He is a lot of fun!

Pikachu is a male orange tabby and is pretty friendly. Pikachu is a curious and loving cat who has a way of keeping you entertained. He doesn't mind being held but is more interested in his toys. Pikachu seems to get along fine with other cats. He doesn't scratch or bite and generally seems to be ready to explore.

This week's pooch is Baxter, a male bloodhound mix. He has been at the pound since he was a puppy and has grown up here - he is probably a year old now. He is the most laid back and lazy dog I have ever met at the pound. His favorite thing to do is lying around. Of course he is still a lot of fun. I think he would be a great dog for first time dog owners.

This sweet basset hound is at the animal shelter in the downstairs area which is where most dogs are while they are waiting for their owners to reclaim them or waiting for a spot to open on the adoption floor.

Whoever ends up with this dog is going to be very lucky! Outlaw is a super docile Black Lab mix. He is great with other dogs and very submissive. Outlaw is awesome on the leash and fetches along with bringing the ball back! A little shy but once you spend some time with him, he comes to life. You really can't ask for a better dog, but he has been in the pound since November.

Jenny is a young brindle pitt who was pregnant when she was taken to the shelter. Jenny was wondering the streets of Texarkana in search of food. She was able to have her babies in the shelter and now that they have all gone to new homes Jenny is ready for a new home too. Jenny is a compact size weighing approximately 40 pounds. She is good on a leash and is very quiet at the shelter. She is happy

This little girl was dumped in a ditch on Kings Highway with her brothers a couple of months ago. Originally there were five puppies but now just this little girl and two of her brothers remain at the shelter. They are all GREAT with kids! This sweet girl puppy is very loving, likes to cuddle and at times can be a bit shy at times.

Dixie is a two year old German Shepherd that is a dream on a leash. She is house-trained too! She is playful and has a great temperament. She is not a fan of little dogs or cats though. Dixie is up to date on her vaccinations and heartworm prevention. This beautiful German Shepherd was recently taken to the shelter by her owners because she did not get along with the little dogs at the house. In a

These puppies were dumped in a ditch on Kings Highway in Texarkana, Texas recently. The momma dog was with the originally but was no were to be seen when the puppies were picked up. There were originally five puppies but one is no longer with them so we are hoping to find the four remaining pups new homes. These puppies are GREAT with Kids!

It is totally unbelievable that this gorgeous Rottweiler mix puppy is still at the shelter! Zane is so sweet and so smart. He is an affectionate and very intelligent puppy that is just sitting at the shelter waiting and waiting for a new family to take him home. Could this be your new dog? He is now about six months old. We first featured him in December and I just knew he would be gone before my

Bashful at first but warms up quickly. Spirit is a beautiful Catahoula Dog. He is good natured and curious. He is a people pleaser which makes for a great dog to train. I love this breed! They are extremely loyal and great property protectors. Did you know that the Catahoula breed name comes from a parish in Louisiana?
