Questions about a Dog?

If interested in a particular animal, please email caawsmail@yahoo.com with your questions. Due to the large volume of calls that CAAWS receives on a daily basis and limited volunteer hours available, it is nearly impossible to return all calls. Email is the easiest and quickest way to reach us.

Fern

Watch Fern on

My name is Fern and I am a female Walker Hound born approximately 7/07.  I am up to date on shots, spayed and tested negative for heartworms. 

My savior found me cowering in the middle of  the highway destined to be hit by one, if not several, cars.  She ran to my side and got me out of the dangerous position I had somehow gotten myself into.  After trying to locate any owners that I might have had, it was decided that I was one without a family. 

I am a very submissive girl and I get along with other dogs and cats.  I have been working on my housebreaking at my current residence and am doing ok with it.  I weight approximately 45 pounds, am a sweet loving girl and have the typical hound bark (howl).  It’s not that I’m real talkative, just wanted to give you a heads up on my vocals.  I love to be rubbed and petted and would love to have a family of my own.

Elsie

Watch Elsie on YouTube!

As fine wine, I’ve aged to perfection.  As diamond clarity, I’m  “FL” (which is completely flawless).  In comparison to my fuzzy four-legged friends, I am the “Crème de la crème”. 

I’m Elsie “the cow”.  I got my name because I’m overweight.  Feel free to adopt me, put me on a diet and change my name to something more sexy.  Or just adopt, put me on a diet and keep my current name. 

My previous owners dumped me in a parking lot.  I hung around waiting on them to come back, but they must have gotten lost.  Another kind soul did find me though and promised to hold onto me until CAAWS could find me a permanent home. 

I am a Lab/Corgi mix born approximately 7/02.  I’m now up to date on shots, have been spayed and tested positive for heartworms.  If someone would like to adopt me now, CAAWS will pay for the treatment. 

I’m very laid back, get along with dogs, cats, and children and am very, very loyal.

To learn more about any of us, call (225) 752-5801, send an email to caawsmail@yahoo.com, or come to the shelter on Saturday between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM to see us in action!
Charlie 

Charlie, and his siblings, Sally, Molly and Wally were rescued from a local animal control facility.  The person who pulled them so they would be able to be put up for adoption felt they were all just too darn adorable and adoptable to be at animal control. 

They are, best guess, Blue Heeler/Australian Cattle dog mixes and were born 2/22/10.  Charlie, obviously male, is up to date on shots, neutered and current on heartworm prevention. 

If we are correct about the DNA, these dogs need room to run and activity to keep them busy from puppyhood throughout adulthood. 

They are usually not your couch potato type (unless it is bed time or their favorite movie is on the tube).  Which one of these cuties does your home need?

 

Greatest Qualities: Patience and Prudence!

KoKo

KoKo (Red Female) and Camo (Dapple Male) are sister and brother.  Not literally from the same litter (as Camo is one year older than KoKo), but they have lived together their whole lives. 

Their previous owner ran into some bad luck and deserted them, so Camo and KoKo where left all alone in their home for approximately two weeks before someone realized and saved them.  They are now a happy part of the CAAWS family and looking for a “smaller” family to call their own. 

KoKo is a female Dachshund born approximately 1/07.  She is spayed, up to date on shots and heartworm negative.  KoKo  loves being dried with a towel and she walks well on a leash.  She can be a bit of a digger in the yard if left unattended. 

She loves all her people, but will usually pick one family member that she will bond more with, and sometimes be a little protective over, as her favorite.  She would not do well with small children in the home, but would love if you would adopt she and her brother, Camo, together.

Camo

Camo (Dapple Male) and KoKo (Red Female) are brother and sister.  Not literally from the same litter (as Camo is one year older than KoKo, but they have lived together their whole lives. 

Their previous owner ran into some bad luck and deserted them, so Camo and KoKo were left all alone in their home for approximately two weeks before someone realized and saved them.  They are now a happy part of the CAAWS family and looking for a “smaller” family to call their own. 

Camo is a male Dachshund born approximately 1/06.  He is neutered, up to date on shots and heartworm negative.  Camo loves taking baths and being dried with a towel, he walks well on a leash, loves to eat, play with his ball (and other toys) and will quickly get into a game of tug-o-war with KoKo or a human. 

He can be a bit of a digger in the yard if left unattended.  He will sometimes get a tad territorial of things if allowed to take them into hiding and you try to retrieve them, so small children in the home would not be a good match.  He is a sweet little guy who wants a family to call his own and would love for his sister, KoKo to be adopted with him.

Shirley

The name’s Shirley, and I’m a female Terrier/Lab mix born approximately 1/07.
I am up to date on shots, spayed and heartworm negative.
Here’s the scoop on me. Late one night, my previous people dumped my sister, Laverne, and I on the road because they decided they didn’t love us anymore. I don’t get it. What’s not to love.
We get along great with other dogs (especially with each other - in case you’re looking for two), cats and adults. We are very shy at first, so a home without small children would be best for us. Anyway, since getting out of the car wasn’t an option, here we are – cute, sweet, loving and available.
Everyone tells us we will not be that way for long (the available part of course) and I sure hope they are right.
Remember, Saturday 11 AM-3 PM is adoption day at the shelter. Come see us all!
