Casta is a 9 month old female Hound mix, who has such a sweet gentle nature. She is a little shy when meeting new people, but warms up quickly with kind words and soft treats. She currently shares a pen with her brother Colt, and the two make a wonderful pair, often seen playing together or lounging side by side. One of Casta’s favorite places to relax is perched on top of a doghouse, quietly watching the world around her. Her calm, easygoing spirit makes her a joy to be around, and she seems happiest simply taking in life’s little moments. Casta has spent her young life growing up in the shelter, but her gentle resilience is truly inspiring. Despite the challenges, she has remained patient, kind, and oh-so-hopeful. What she dreams of now is her forever home - a place where she can finally feel safe, loved, and part of a family.

Story
Meatloaf is a 2 year old male Pit mix, who is a super lovable boy with a special talent for winning hearts - all it takes is his adoring look up at you with those sweet eyes and grin. He’s goofy, charming, eager to please, and absolutely loves being around people! And Meatloaf’s friendliness isn’t limited to humans; he seems to be great with other dogs and even cats. When he met a feral cat at the shelter, he gently crouched into a Down position, clearly trying not to scare her - and it worked, the cat walked right up to him. Recently, he had the best day ever during a Dog Day Out with two volunteers, soaking up belly rubs, cuddles, and plenty of love while strutting around the UWG campus with them. He rode like a champ in the car and even got to live out his lap dog dreams for part of the ride - with more cuddles, of course! Now, Meatloaf is dreaming of a forever home where every day can feel like that - full of love, fun, and belly rubs galore. So go meet this sweet boy and let him work his magic on you. With his big heart and lovable personality, Meatloaf will be a loyal companion who will adore you with his whole heart!
