You Ain't Nothin But A Hound Dog!

Here at the Peninsula SPCA, we've got some wonderful hound dogs! Sadly, they've been unable to follow their noses home, but we're hoping the Peninsula SPCA can do what their noses can't!

Skean is a beautiful purebread beagle. He's only 4 years old and is such a charmer!



Harley is a 5 year old brown and white beagle mix and she has the sweetest, most soulful eyes! Just look at that please-take-me-home-with-you face! How can you resist?



Flicka is a 7 year old purebred hound that is just baying for her forever home! She's so laid back and easy going, she would fit in to any home and make someone a wonderful pet!



Please come visit our hounds today! They've waited long enough for their forever homes, and you have the ability to take them home forever.

The Peninsula SPCA's Blue Dogs

All of the dogs and cats at the Peninsula SPCA are listed according to their breed, age, and color. These colors are normally very typical, like red or black or brown. But have you ever seen our blue dogs?

Ok, so we didn't dye our dog's fur blue, but they're both named Blue!

Blue (top) is an extra large red hound mix with a really fun attitude! He's three years old and such a happy guy that would love to go home with you today.



Blue (bottom) is a one year old labrador retriever who is in need of some love. He's a little on the skinny side with a shiny black coat but he'll be a beautiful animal once he's gained a little weight. He just needs someone to feed him regularly, bring him on walks, and give him treats!


Please come visit Blue and Blue today!

The Furriest of Them All!

Sometimes all you need at the end of the day is a warm furry pet to hold on to! Sleek and short hair can be nice to the touch, but that thick fur you can just sink your hand into for a good belly rub is sometimes just what you need!

Here are some of our furriest canines at the Peninsula SPCA!

Quincy

Quincy is a 4 year old purebred Australian Shepherd. He's got a beautiful thick white and black coat that he loves to have brushed!


Jeezy

Jeezy is a 3 year old male rottweiler that is a big lazy boy! He's perfectly happy laying beside you while you watch TV.


Barney

Barney is a 5.5 year old German Shepherd mix. His favorite activity is to be taken out on a walk, but he's so laid back, he'll be up to anything!

Please come and visit all of our furry friends today at the Peninsula SPCA.

Please come visit our available kittens and all of our other cats in the cat room at the Peninsula SPCA!

Cats for the Golden Years

Have you ever considered adopting a senior pet? June is Adopt-A-Cat-Month, but many still forget about the older pets that have given a lifetime of loyalty and love to their owners and, sadly, have still ended up stranded at the Peninsula SPCA for reasons like their owners moving, falling on hard times, or the arrival of new pets or children. These pets don't deserve to spend the rest of their years at a shelter but many of these animals never get adopted just because of their age.

An older cat is a ready-made pet that just needs a home. There is normally no behavioral training or litterbox training, just a perfectly well-mannered cat ready to blend in with your lifestyle. Dottie Pepper is one of these older cats.



Dottie Pepper is an 11 year old Domestic Shorthair with beautiful green eyes. Her owners had to move and were not able to bring her along, so Dottie Pepper ended up at the Peninsula SPCA. She's a beautiful cat with many more years left in her if only the right family would come take her home. She's very calm and loves to have her owner pet her. She'll happily wait all day for you to come home and then will plant herself at your feet or next to your chair just to be near you. She would also make a wonderful companion for an older family looking to share their lives with a cat in need.

Ipso is another older cat available at the Peninsula SPCA for adoption. He's a 10 year old Domestic Shorthair with a glossy black coat. As laid back as you could ask for, Ipso is the perfect ready-made pet for any family.



Please consider giving a senior cat a home this month and any month. They've shown their loyalty and their love for their owners in the past-please give them a chance to give you their best in their golden years!

Not Your Everyday Dog or Cat

Interested in a dog or cat that not just anyone has? Want to give a home to a dog or cat that's not seen every day on the street? We've got just the pet for you!

Minky is our Siamese cat, currently for adoption in the cat room at the Peninsula SPCA. She's 6 years old and very calm and collected-she's patiently waiting for her forever family to come along!



Roxy is our resident 1 and a half year old Belgian Malinois/Mix who's eager to find her forever home. She's very laid back but would do best in a home with no small children. How can you turn down that sweet smile?



Mercedes is our 4 year old Cane Corso/Mix, and once she gains some weight, she's going to be a big girl! But don't be alarmed, she's as sweet as can be and just loves being loved on. She's our gentle giant, so she does need some room, but the bigger the dog, the bigger the heart!
