Sweet Pluto is a gentle old soul living in a young dog’s body. He loves to take walks, explore, and sniff around! He is very good on the leash, and responsive to voice commands. Eager to please and treat motivated, he is perfecting sit! shake! and leave it! Pluto is a quiet, affectionate boy who is patiently waiting to find the love & affection of his forever family. Pluto is a neutered male Hound mix, approximately 3 years old. He is house-trained and up-to-date on vaccinations. Pluto welcomes all the attention he can get and would probably be okay with most kids and other dogs. Although Pluto is heartworm positive, he is currently being treated (sponsored by Friends of Berrien County Animal). Please contact Berrien County Animal Control (1400 South Euclid Avenue, Benton Harbor, MI 49022) or 269-927-564 to learn more about our perfect gentleman, Pluto!

Furry Friends Friday brought to you by The Mason Jar Cafe featuring Destiny from Al-Van Humane Society

Destiny is a sweet, beautiful girl who was returned to us after not getting along with the resident cat, and she is looking for a cat/small animal free home. She would do best in a quiet home, but with someone who is willing to get her some good exercise, as she is still young and very active. Destiny is uncomfortable and nervous with new people when she first meets them, but slowly opens up, and will gently ask for love and attention once she starts trusting you. She needs someone willing to give her this time, and to keep up with her exercise and training so she can blossom. She is willing to meet a new dog friend, but this introduction too might take some time. Destiny is a good listener and very loyal when she gets to know you. She finds a favorite toy and sticks with it! Her current favorite is an orange and blue rubber bone. She sits when asked and is great on a leash. She’s doing well learning not to react to other dogs she sees, but will need consistent work on that. Add a little canned food to her bowl and she’ll be your best friend. She loves soft, jerky-like treats, especially if they smell like bacon! Destiny is a little under 3 years old and is 42 lbs. She is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. If you are interested in adopting Destiny, fill out an application at al-van.org/adopt. You can also call us at (269)637-5062, or visit our adoption center at 07591 Blue Star Hwy in South Haven, and we can help you with the application process.... [Read Full Story]
