The Mason Jar Cafe’s Furry Friends Friday featuring Luna!

furryfriends-2020-600x366-1
Luna is a 3 year old female dog who just joined Paws of Hope last Sunday. She owes her unique looks to her Chihuahua lineage and a mystery mix that we suspect might include Dachshund and maybe some type of terrier such as Rat Terrier. Luna only weighs 12 pounds. We have learned that Luna enjoys going for walks, sitting by a window where she can observe nature and the neighbors, and gets along well with the cats in her foster home. We suspect that Luna will do well with most dogs, although we haven’t yet introduced to other dogs. So far, Luna has been a very quiet girl and seems to prefer to be near her foster mom, either on her lap or beside her. Luna has mild “cherry eyes” but doesn’t rub her eyes or have discharge. She was just spayed on Wednesday, is microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Please reach out to Paws of Hope at information@pawsofhope.org to learn more about our lovely Luna.

Bruno is a male Dogue de Bordeaux! This gentle giant is also known as the French Mastiff. If you know your movie history, you will know you’ve seen a dog face similar to Bruno. Yes– “Turner and Hooch!” But, Bruno’s story is a bit different from Hooch’s story. Bruno came to the shelter two weeks ago with an issue that many people also deal with… he’s allergic to cats! Bruno’s cat allergy will not stop us from finding the perfect forever home for him. Bruno is super-friendly, yet very gentle. He loves cookies and will sit politely for them after his walks. Just don’t wait too long to give Bruno his cookies because he will start to drool in anticipation of the tasty treat! Bruno is up-to-date on vaccinations, but still needs to be neutered. His adoption fee is $65.00, part of which is a deposit that will be refunded once Bruno has been neutered. Please reach out to Cass County Animal Control (323 M-62 North, Cassopolis, MI 49031; Phone 269-445-3701) to learn more about our very handsome guy, Bruno. ...
