Story
Hi! The shelter staff named me Celebrity and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by an Animal Control Officer on 8/17/26.I am a spirited dog with a fun-loving personality! I am still working on my manners, so I would do best with a family who is willing to work with me and help me become the best dog I can be! I am a puppy!! I will need to find a home where someone is available for me in these early days. It is important to be consistent with me and socialize me so I can have the best companionship with people and other animals. Puppies require patience because everything is brand new so I will need some TLC while I learn. I am not potty trained or crate training yet and teaching me those skills will help tremendously on a road to success! If you and your family are ready to fall in love my awesome self, please check me out!!I weigh 48 lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!You can visit me at the Pet Adoption Center on weekdays from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The Pet Adoption Center is located at 21615 64th Ave S, Kent, WA 98032.Come and visit me today, I`d love to go home with you!Your new pet received a basic physical exam, in addition to routine vaccines, deworming, and topical flea preventative, if indicated. Although your new pet is ready for adoption, there is always a possibility of additional medical conditions that have not been detected or may develop in the future. Current medical conditions are noted below.1) Demodex and pyoderma - this puppy came in with pyoderma/skin infection. She was diagnosed with demodex. Demodex is mites that live in the hair follicles that causes generalized fur loss, itchiness, and secondary skin infection. She has been treated with Bravecto and is on antibiotics for secondary skin infection. Please follow up with your regular vet or a veterinary dermatologist.2) Kennel cough - this dog has developed kennel cough while in the shelter. She is currently on antibiotics.

Hi! My name is Rocket and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by a good Samaritan on August 30, 2026.I weigh 60lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to hang out with you at home!I am full of energy and I love to play! I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.Because of my shy nature, I would do best in a calm, quiet home.I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend!

Hi! My name is Earl and I am available for adoption.I was brought in by a good Samaritan on September 2, 2026.I weigh 16.5lbs and am considered a `small breed` dog.I am an affectionate lovebug who would be thrilled to cuddle up with you at home!I recently went to a foster home where I stayed with a large breed dog. Given a slow introduction I was able to spend time freely around the house with him :). I also got to meet some younger kids at a soccer game and did well with them too (take a peek at my awesome profile pic). My foster says that I would do best in a home where I can always see my people.Because of my shy nature, I would do best in a calm, quiet home.I am a gentle and loving dog who likes to take things slow. I may get nervous in new situations, so I am looking for a family who understands that I might take some time to warm up. Once I get to know you, I will be a very devoted friend!

Story
Uniqua is a 3 yr old poodle mix. I am not sure what she is mixed with. She was a gift from a friend. She is loving and sweet. Great with kids and enjoys attention. She enjoys play time with other dogs but she has never shared her personal space at home with any pets. She likes blankets and cuddles. Uniqua has alopecia on her back so we keep the rest of her hair short. She wears tee shirts or a sun dress when going outside so there's no direct sun on her back. She wears a coat in the winter.

Hi! My name is Bubba and I am available for adoption!I am considered a large breed/medium breed dog.I am an independent dog who likes to do my own thing but warms up to the right person.I am vocal but I tend to calm down more when the people around me stay calm. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy. I would do best in a calm, quiet home with adults only.I am very treat motivated and love tasty snacks.I was nominated as the Pet of the Week on September 26, 2025. This means that my adoption fee has been reduced. Please note that a pet license is a requirement and therefore a fee may be applied. This helps my safe return home should I become lost, and comes with additional benefits such as Vacation Pet Alert, Free Ride Home and more (visit our pet licensing page for more info)!I am currently in a wonderful Volunteer Foster Home. So, to meet with me, you`ll need to fill out an Foster Adoption Interest Form on our website! My Animal ID Number is A735080 and I am excited to meet you!
