Our Newest Installation

Help us name our Dawg!

Our newly installed bulldog statue welcomes guests into our adoption center. Our bulldog, painted by local artist Lees Miner, proudly sports an impressive underbite and an “Adopt Me” bandana as it keeps a watchful eye over our adoptable cats in the outside catio. But we can’t keep referring to our bulldog as “the statue”. . . we need a name. Help us name our new bulldog statue by voting on a community members’ suggested names! The winning name will be selected for the statue and a special plaque will be installed honoring our statue’s new name. If more than one name ties for winner, a random generator will be used to decide the final winner!
