Check out the 3 new dogs ready to be adopted today! This past week at the shelter has been tough, with stray dogs coming in faster than dogs are being adopted out.

If you have been to our shelter, than you know that we are a small community shelter that takes in all of the lost, stray, neglected, abused, and abandoned dogs and cats for 7 cities throughout Pierce County. We are dependent on these same communities to adopt from our shelter, so we can continue to have kennels available to provide this critical public safety service.

Come visit us to see how you can help - you might just find a new best friend!

Thanks to our truly amazing volunteers, our pups get an opportunity to spend a day out of the shelter and getting to see what life can be like in a loving home. Look at how cute and happy Luna is on her "Dogy Day Out"!

This weekend was Luna's lucky turn, where she got to go for a car ride, take a walk, play in the grass, snuggle on an extra comfy bed, and do lots and lots and lots of chase with a ball. And she did amazing at all of the things! No jumping or pawing, and only pulled lightly on the leash because she is just so adorably inquisitive about everything. We also hear that she was on her very best behavior in the yard and in the house - way to go Luna!!!

If you are interested in meeting Luna and turning her "Doggy Day Out" into a lifetime out of the shelter, then please come visit her at the Metro Animal Shelter today. We are open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and have some of the lowest adoption fees in the region.

**CAT CAM** There are certain cats that sure catch your attention, and this one definitely wanted to be the star of the show today!

This friendly little lady came into our shelter a couple of weeks ago after her previous owners were no longer able to provide housing and care for her. After her spay is completed, this super friendly cat will be on her way to a new forever family through our pre-adoption program. A happy ending!

Want to learn more about our cat pre-adoption program? Come visit us between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Tuesdays through Saturdays, we are located in Puyallup just a short distance away from the South Hill Mall.
