Home for the Holidays

Koda is a 6 month old neutered Australian Cattle Dog/Bluetick Hound. He has been at the shelter for a while and is patiently waiting for his forever family to find him. He was given up by his family because they were moving and couldn't take him with them. He loves to be around people and is very friendly.

Bobbito is a 7 month old neutered Lab mix who is fully of energy and loves being a puppy. He has been at the shelter since the beginning of November and is eager to be apart of a family again.  He was given up by his last family because they had too many animals and had to give one up. Not much is known about how he is with other dogs or cats, but like other labs, he is very sweet and loves attention.

Bo is a spayed hound mix and is about 1 year and 4 months old. She is not very good with cats, but is good with other dogs, housebroken, and is also good with kids; she would make a great family dog.  She is a typical hound and does howl, but she has energy, she is happy and sweet natured. Bo has also been at the shelter since the beginning of November; help her find her forever home so she can celebrate the holidays with a new family.

Maylon is an 8 year old neutered German Shepherd mix who was given up by his family because they were moving and were not able to take him with them. He is very mellow and sweet, he is also housebroken, good with kids, and good with other dogs.

Maylon has been at the shelter since the beginning of December, and is waiting for a family to welcome him into their home where he can cuddle up and relax. Even though he is an older dog, he would make a wonderful family pet.

Help these amazing, sweet, loving pets find a family to celebrate the holidays with! Come down to the Humane Society of Utah  to meet them and give them a chance to show you how much they can love you.

Happy holidays!

Help These Guys Find A Home for the Holidays!

Miley is a female 1 1/1 year old Australian Cattle Mix who has been at our shelter since the beginning of October. Miley is housebroken, and is good with kids; she needs to be in a home with kids 12 years old or older because she is a very hyper dog. She loves to be pet, and loves having attention! Help Miley find her forever home!

Nina is a 5 year old domestic short hair brown tabby. She is a very loving cat and loves to just sit around and cuddle! Nina is good with other cats and with kids, but she has not been around dogs so we don't know how she will do in a home with dogs. She was brought to our shelter because her owner passed away. Help Nina find a home in time for the holidays!

Milo is an 11 month old Rat Terrier Chihuahua mix who has been at our shelter since the beginning of October and is waiting for his chance to be apart of a family. Milo is good with kids and good with other dogs, but we are not sure how he is around cats. He was brought into our shelter because he went to the bathroom in the house; his previous family did not take the time to train him so he needs to be with a family who is willing to take the time to help him learn. He is only a puppy so he should learn quick! Help Milo find his new home!

Featured Pets of the Week!

Spider is a 4 year old white and black Aussie Shepherd mix. He is a very smart dog, but does not do well with small children or with cats; he does get along with other dogs.  Spider's former owner did not take the time to housebreak him so he needs someone who will take the time the train him, he will learn quickly! Spider is an active dog, so he will need to be with a family who will exercise him everyday.

Baxter is a 7 year old male neutered Newfoundland mix. Was an outside only dog, so he needs someone who is willing to work with him and someone who is willing to let him come inside. This is a big dog so he will need a big space to be in. Baxter is a very gentle and affectionate dog who loves to be pet and touched; he is just a big teddy bear! He is good with kids and with other dogs, but he is not good with cats. His owners gave him up because they were getting divorced.

Onyx is a 2 year old female spay Greyhound mix. Not much is known about her, but she is housebroken, good with kids and with other dogs; she is not very good with cats. She is a very nice, sweet girl who loves to run and play fetch. Onyx is a very active dog, so she will need a family who is willing to exercise her everyday. She does get very hyper around small kids because she has so much energy, so she would fit in better with a family that has kids who can handle her energy.

Rosie is a 2 years old Domestic Shorthair Spay Brown Tabby. She is very sweet, loves to be held, and is good with kids.
