About Shane

Shane is a playful spirit who found his way to us after being discovered alone as a stray. Without any identification, he sadly didn’t have a family come looking for him. Now, Shane is ready to embark on a new chapter and is actively seeking a forever home where he can feel safe and loved. Since arriving, Shane met a spayed female of similar size and immediately tried to engage her in play. He’s got a friendly demeanor and walks beautifully on a leash. His playful energy is matched only by his ability to accept corrections—when his new friend corrected him during their play, he bounced right back and kept the fun going. If you're looking to welcome a sweet and energetic boy into your life, don't miss the chance to meet Shane when we open tomorrow, November 13 at 12 PM. We encourage you to come to the shelter in person, as we often have many eager pets ready for adoption. Keep in mind that Shane would thrive in a home that understands the commitment of love and patience. We recommend meet-and-greets with resident dogs and children, although we currently have no information on how he interacts with cats. Give Shane a chance—he truly deserves a loving forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
