Creature Corner: July 3, 2014

Ethel
Ethel

Ethel is ready to move on as long as she has a very active family or a young canine playmate to grow up with. This young girl is under age 1, and loves to play and run. She is a quick learner, as she has already mastered sit and stay. Leash training was a piece of cake (or bone.) Ethel is not a barker and seems to respect felines. Oh, and she’s doggy-door and house-trained, too. Grab your leash and start walking.

Archie
Archie

Such a handsome fellow he is. Archie is learning how to be his own dog now that he doesn’t feel obligated to protect Bella. He is in training and will be ready for adoption soon. Let’s try to give Archie the best new home, too, just like Bella. He loves the leash, is potty-trained, and is good in the car. Of course, he loves to be groomed and loved. He is about 5 years old. Archie is good with cats and calm with dogs.

gatosBoomer on the table, Bill on the top level and Whiskers are sitting close to the door just in case that special someone comes in for them. Who will be first? Boomer is the youngest at 1-and-a-half, and Whiskers and Bill are about 2. They all are males and good with other felines. Boomer actually likes the canine crowd. They are still young enough to play, but enjoy just hanging around. They’re good fly catchers, too. There’s a special on all cats in the ARF cattery.

We have several pets on our website in assisted adoption, also. Be sure to look us up on Facebook, too.

ARF has many cats and dogs available for adoption or fostering. Go to www.arfidyllwild.weebly.com and click on Petfinder. There is also a link for Facebook too. All pets are spayed, neutered and current on shots. ARF is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sundays.

Creature corner is sponsored by Sam Kelly in Memory of Mishka, this week. To sponsor the column, call Lisa Streeter at the Town Crier, 951-659-2145.
