Our featured pets this week are Bill and Sam.

Bill is a very handsome 7-month-old cat. He’s a pretty buff color with white markings and he’s been with us since mid-summer, patiently waiting to find his perfect home. This good-looking guy has a mellow personality. He’s playful and yet not too demanding for attention. Wouldn’t you like to give Bill the forever home that he deserves?

Sam is an attractive 4-and-and-half-month old large breed mix puppy. His cute long, floppy ears definitely point to part hound and he may have some lab thrown in for good measure. Sam is friendly and playful and ready to take the move forward with his adoptive family. He’s sure to make a fine-looking and loyal companion.      

PetSmart Charities is sponsoring a National Adoption Event this weekend. The DBCHS will be participating at our adoption center at the Brannon Crossing PetSmart on U.S. 27 just north of Nicholasville. We will have many adorable kittens, cats, puppies and dogs in need of loving forever homes. Kittens and cats will be available for adoption all weekend during store hours. Puppies and dogs will be at PetSmart on Saturday from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. and on Sunday from noon-5 p.m. This will be the perfect opportunity to meet many of our lovable furry friends that need forever homes.
