FEATURED PET - SWEETS
This white and brindle girl came to us from an owner who didn't have her best interests in mind. Sweets is a nine year old female pit bull who looks like she's had a rough life. We at the shelter think her time spent at the shelter have been the happiest days of her life so far. Sweets loves to curl up and sleep on a nice warm blanket each day. The softer and cushier the blanket, the happier she is! Despite her rough first nine years, Sweets hasn't let it affect her personality. How do you think she got the name "Sweets?!" Sweets would be a great dog for an older person. Within the 40 to 45lb. range, she's on the small side of medium. Sweets doesn't require a lot of exercise and walks very well on leash. She'd also do best as the only pet in the house. At the age of nine, she doesn't tolerate the antics of younger animals anymore. Please consider making the last years of Sweets life a great one. After all she's been through, she deserves it.
Sweet Dreams is a part of our Senior for Seniors program. If anyone over the age of 63 decides to adopt her, the adoption fee will be discounted. Sweets may be mature at nine, but she keeps adding to her resume, which proves you can teach an "old" dog new tricks. Our gal is now the new B.A.D. (Bullies Are Deserving) Dog. What that means is that dedicated volunteers focus on her to make sure Sweets will be all she can be. In addition to receiving additional exercise and mental stimulation to combat shelter blues, Sweets will receive basic obedience training, focusing on positive reinforcement. She goes out on frequent outtings to brush up on her social skills. Anyone discerning enough to adopt her will receive all the tools they need to make the adoption a success, including a goodie bag. UPDATE: If you can't find Sweets when you visit LHS, ask the shelter staff. Due to her cleanliness and overall good manners, when she is not spending weekends at a volunteer's home, Sweets now lives the life of Reilly in the kitchen. No more cage for our domestic goddess!
Happy Tails!

Congradulations Macy!!!
It is with great pride and joy that we report that Macy, the LHS cat formerly known as Catalina, claimed her first show title on Saturday! She is now a REGAL, reports her proud owner, Krista-Marie Dieckamp.
Out of eight rings, Macy received 3 Best Household Pet (HHP) ribbons, 2 Second Place ribbons, and 3 Fourth Best. On Saturday, she received the BEST OF THE BEST ribbon because she had the most points for a HHP that day. "I was so proud of her there were so many tears!" recalls Krista-Marie. On Sunday, Macy received 2nd Best of the Best and for the weekend, she came in 2nd Best of the Best overall. Congratulations, Macy!

Hampton Gets a Home!
Hampton, a long time resident of LHS was finally adopted in the beginning of January to a great home in Rutherford. After seven months in the shelter and two failed adoptions, Hampton finally lucked out! This patient and well tempered pit bull now has a home with a fenced in yard and two canine siblings. Hampton's new family has told us to take him down as our featured pet because they "are never gonna give him back!" The entire staff and volunteers at LHS could not be happier for Hampton!
