Story
Greetings friends, family, and followers!My name is Angel, and I’m a 2-year-old Akita/Husky mix with the most beautiful glassy blue eyes you’ve ever seen. My coat is a stunning red with white markings that make me truly one of a kind.I was impounded on January 10, 2026. My previous owner was notified that I was at the shelter and decided not to reclaim me, as their fencing wasn’t secure and I kept escaping the yard. While I’ve spent most of my life outdoors, I’m ready for a new chapter.The good news? I’ve tested negative for heartworms and I’m up to date on my vaccinations — so I’m healthy and ready to go!I’ve been talking with a few of my “constituents,” and they highly recommend I try the indoor/outdoor lifestyle — especially the part where I get to live inside with my family, be part of the daily routine, and soak up love and attention. I think I’d really enjoy being included in the family dynamic instead of watching from the yard.I’m looking for a home with secure fencing, plenty of love, and a family who will make me part of their world. If you’re searching for a loyal, strikingly beautiful companion with bright blue eyes and an adventurous spirit, I might just be your girl.Could you be my forever family? ????

Story
My name is Denise… pronounced “Dee-NICE.”Yes, like the substitute teacher comedy skit. Apparently, that name is running rampant at the shelter right now — we just need an “A-A Ron” to complete the cast! But hey, I embrace it. Denise fits me just fine.I’m a 2-year-old Husky mix who arrived on February 3, 2026, from the Rice Street area here in West Memphis. A kind lady saw me almost get hit by a car and made sure I got safely to the shelter. I’m so grateful she stepped in — who knows where I’d be otherwise?Let me tell you a little about myself.I’m super sweet, housebroken, and I absolutely love being outside in the sunshine. These days the weather is hit or miss, but when the sun does come out, you’ll find me right in the middle of the yard, sitting peacefully and soaking up every warm ray. It’s my happy place.When I first arrived, though, I wasn’t feeling so great. I had a severe skin condition and two badly infected ears. My ears hurt so much that I shook them constantly — sometimes so hard I’d get dizzy and lightheaded. One treatment later and my ears are clear! The relief was incredible. No one should have to live with ear pain and no help.As for my skin — it wasn’t mange and it wasn’t ringworm. It was a terrible yeast infection covering much of my body. I’m currently in treatment and doing really well. My fur should be growing back in beautifully before long.Right now, I may not look like much… but trust me.I have crystal blue eyes, and when you meet me, you’ll understand. There’s something special there. I have a calm, gentle presence and a heart ready to belong to someone.Here’s my health update:• Heartworm negative• Up to date on vaccines• Spay coming soonWhile I’m healing and waiting, I wanted you to know I’m here — and I’m in the market for a loving home and family.If you’re looking for a sweet, sunshine-loving girl with striking blue eyes and a heart full of gratitude, come meet Dee-NICE.I think you’ll know I’m the one. ????
