If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if a Hallmark leading man was reincarnated as a dog, wonder no more—because Jack Frost’s Better-Looking Cousin is here. This 1-year-old snowy-soft sweetheart is pure emotional butter. He’s sensitive in that rom-com hero way—big feelings, soulful eyes, and a dramatic lean into your shoulder like he’s about to confess that you are the true meaning of Christmas. His first day? Picture an anxious holiday elf encountering modern flooring for the first time—he pancaked on that tile like it offended him personally. But give him a few minutes and he warms up faster than cocoa on the stove. At first he stood by the gate, gazing out like he was waiting for Santa to return from a supply run, whining in that “I just need reassurance that love is real” tone. But close the door, give him a little space, and suddenly he’s nibbling toys, working on treats, or curling up for a cozy nap like he’s auditioning for the role of Comfort Creature No. 1.He absolutely adores people, politely requests more attention when you stop, and greets you with a loose, jolly tail wag when you come back, even after just two minutes away. He wants company, connection, and a home that will understand that sometimes a big guy just has big feelings. If you’re looking for a holiday miracle wrapped in 74 lbs of Icy Handsome Sweetness, Jack Frost’s Better-Looking Cousin is ready to sleigh your winter and every season after.
The dog adoption fee is $90. They come spayed/neutered, microchipped, first set of vaccines including DAPP (parvo combo), Bordetella (kennel cough), have been dewormed with Pyrantel, and have been treated with selamectin for fleas. Our website updates every hour, but some animals may be adopted faster than we can get them updated online. If you`d like to check on the status of an animal, please call us at 360-352-2510. This is especially important if you are viewing this animal on any site other than Animal Services` website.

How do I adopt a pet?
Once you visit the shelter and select your pet, you will be asked to complete an adoption application. The application will include information about how you plan to care for your new friend, where he or she will live, what your expectations of the pet's behavior may be and whether pets already in your home are legally licensed.
If you do not own your home, we will need to contact the legal property owner to verify that you may have the pet you are interested in.
Certain animals will have specific adoption requirements in addition to the general requirements. These can include a fence check, no small kids, etc.
If your application is approved, you will be asked to complete several other forms including an adoption contract. This process takes approximately 30 minutes.
The pet you select will remain at the shelter for transport to the veterinarian for its spay/neuter surgery.
