🐾 Meet Barnabus! 🐾

Introducing Barnabus, a handsome 3-year-old Chow Chow and Bulldog mix with a heart as big as his adorable face! ❤️ This sweet boy is the perfect combination of bashful, goofy, and unbelievably loving, and we can’t wait for everyone to see just how special he really is!

Barnabus may be a little shy when meeting new people, but don’t let his bashfulness fool you! Once he starts to feel comfortable, his silly, playful personality begins to shine, and boy, is he a character! 🥹 Whether he’s showing off his goofy antics, making you laugh with his adorable expressions, or soaking up every bit of love and attention he can get, Barnabus has a way of stealing hearts without even trying.

Underneath that handsome face is one of the sweetest, most affectionate boys you could ever meet. He has SO much love to give and wants nothing more than to have someone to share it with. Once you’ve earned his trust, you’ll discover a loyal, lovable goofball who is sure to fill your days with laughter, affection, and plenty of unforgettable moments. 💕

Barnabus gets along well with people and other dogs, making him a wonderful potential companion for a family with canine friends! However, he is not a good fit for a home with cats or livestock, so he’ll need a home where he can safely enjoy being his goofy, happy self.

What makes Barnabus so special is that he’s truly the best of both worlds. He’s got that gentle, bashful sweetness that makes you want to scoop him up and love him forever, paired with a hilarious, goofy personality that will keep you smiling every single day. 🐶❤️

At just 3 years old, Barnabus has so much life, love, and laughter ahead of him. All he’s missing is a family to share it with. He deserves a home where he can feel safe, let his personality shine, and be loved just as much as he loves in return.

🏡 If you’re looking for a sweet, silly, affectionate best friend who will make you laugh and melt your heart all at once, Barnabus might just be your perfect match!

Come meet this handsome boy and see for yourself just how wonderful he truly is! 🐾💙

HEY YOU! Yeah, YOU! 👋🐾

This little guy has his paws out because apparently he’s decided it’s time for someone to come get him! 😂

Behind those paws are 62 cats and kittens currently in our care — from tiny babies being bottle-fed every 2 hours to cuddlers, mousers, and everything in between.

We’ve also had nearly 40 cats come through our doors for TNR this year alone — and that doesn’t even include all the TNR coupons we’ve helped provide!

Now come meet the cats who are ready for homes and see who reaches for you! 🐾

We have some new faces on our kennel tech team, so we thought it would be fun to let them introduce you to some of their favorite shelter pets! ❤️

Our new kennel tech Anna picked dear Frankie for her first staff spotlight. Here’s what she has to say about this sweet girl:

“Frankie is very sweet and loving and always one of the first kittens to greet you when you walk into the kitten cabin. She loves cuddles and some playtime, and her little white tuft of fur on her chest makes her easy to spot amongst all the black kitties!”

And welcome to the team, Anna! We’re so happy to have you helping take such great care of the homeless animals of Lemhi County! 🐾

🐾 Meet Banjo & Benny! 🐾

We’ve got two handsome new faces ready to find their forever homes, and while they may have very different personalities, they’re both pretty easy to fall in love with. 💛

🤠 Banjo is a 1-year-old Heeler with a whole lot of heart, a little bit of spunk, and an easygoing personality. He’s the definition of a shadow dog and would happily follow his person just about anywhere! Whether it’s heading out on an adventure, exploring the outdoors, or spending a quiet day by your side, Banjo just wants to be included. He’s got that fun Heeler spark without all the intensity, making him a wonderful mix of loyal, playful, adventurous, and laid-back.

🐶 Benny is a handsome 3-year-old hound mix who is still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. He can be a little shy when you first meet him, but each day we’re watching more of his sweet personality peek through. He gets along well with female dogs and continues to gain confidence as he settles in. We have a feeling there’s a happy, loving, goofy hound hiding underneath that shy exterior, and we can’t wait to watch him blossom. 🌱💕

Two very different boys, both waiting for the same thing: someone to choose them. 🏡❤️

Come meet Banjo and Benny and see if one of these sweet boys might be the missing piece in your family! 🐾
