My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Acorn, a sweet, beautiful, leggy three-year-old shepherd/hound mix. With a perpetual wag in her tail and a smile that lights up any room, Acorn adores people and craves companionship. Her affectionate nature extends to her canine friends, making her the perfect candidate for a home with a doggy sibling. On walks, Acorn's nose leads the way, this girl loves taking in the world through all the amazing scents! She is going to make someone so lucky!

From her foster: "Acorn is really calm, gentle, and sweet. She is quite the couch potato! While she enjoys walks, I think it's mostly for the smells. She does great on a leash, in the car, and in the house. We have a dog door, which she took to quickly, and there hasn't been one accident.
We think she'd love to spend most of her time cuddling on the couch and doesn't need a highly active lifestyle. She would be an excellent companion dog."

Additional adoption info

The Lander Pet Connection cannot guarantee the breed, composition or ages of our animals as we usually have very little history prior to them entering the rescue.

Our intention is to ensure long lasting, committed and loving homes for all animals at LPC. If we feel that an animal and a potential owner are not a good fit, we reserve the right to deny an adoption.

More about this shelter

The Lander Pet Connection is dedicated to saving the lives of homeless Lander-area animals. The LPC is compassion and kindness in action. We work every day to save the lives of starving, injured and abandoned animals and then find them loving homes. We provide resources and education to loving pet guardians to better support the human-animal bond in our wonderful community. We are helping people with pets and pets without people.

We are a humble, devoted and active group that helps animals in Lander and Fremont County Wyoming. The LPC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal shelter and rescue. We serve as a refuge for lost and found dogs in cooperation with the city of Lander, in addition to operating independently to save lives.

Founded in 1996 by Syd Miller, the Lander Pet Connection is a companion animal rescue and adoption nonprofit based in Lander, Wyoming. Originally called the “Dare to Care Animal League,” the organization later registered at the “Lander Pet Connection.” Syd Miller helped save hundreds of animals in the area.
