Indiana-PAW Pet Of The Week Sponsored By

Ulysses - ADOPTED!

Ulysses Background: Ulysses is one of a litter of puppies dropped off in the driveway of Animal Protection Association (APA) of Jeffersonville, Indiana's shelter almost a year ago. Ulysses was part of the the "General" litter - named because they were basically on their "last stand." His entire litter is very fond of children, so he would probably do best in a situation where there is always someone nearby for him to love. Ulysses would be the PERFECT family dog. Please help us find the perfect forever home for this guy -- he would love you forever!

Gender: Male

Breed: Black Lab/Collie Mix

Approximate Age: 1 year old - about 50 lbs.

Spay/Neuter Status: Yes, Ulysses is already neutered!

Vaccinations: Yes, Ulysses is up-to-date on all his vaccines and neagive for heartworms!

Housetrained: It's unlikely that Ulysses is housetrained, since the poor guy has spent the last year in a shelter. But he's so bright that he should be a breeze to crate-train.

Compatibility With Children: Yes, Ulysses does GREAT with children. He's playful but gentle.

Compatibility With Other Pets: Ulysses does well with other dogs, but we're not sure how he does with cats.

Personality: Ulysses and his whole litter are very people-friendly, but they seem to love children most of all. He'd do great in a home where there's always someone around for him to love.

Ideal Home: Ulysses would love a home where he could be the center of attention. He absolutely loves people and children and would be content to spend his whole life just getting some attention.

To Adopt: If interested in adopting Ulysses, please contact the Animal Protection Association (APA) of Jeffersonville, Indiana by calling 812-283-6555 to set up an appointment You can visit APA online at: www.apa-pets.org

Beagle Boy

Beagle Boy Background: This little cutie is called Beagle Boy. He's a older beagle, but one with a ton of life just looking for a new home. He's playful, funny, and spunky. If you meet him, you will absolutely fall in love with him, and he'll love you for the rest of his life.

Gender: Male

Breed: Beagle. Small - only 13" tall!

Approximate Age: 10 years old

Spay/Neuter Status: Yes, Beagle Boy is already neutered!

Vaccinations: Yes, Beagle Boy is up-to-date on all his vaccines and heartworm negative! He's in very good health.

Housetrained: We're not certain if Beagle Boy is housetrained, but if not, he should master it in no time!

Compatibility With Children: Yes, Beagle Boy would do VERY well with children.

Compatibility With Other Pets: Yes, Beagle Boy does very well with other dogs. We're not sure how he does with cats, but if he's like most beagles, he'll probably do just fine with them.

Personality: Beagle Boy is a playful loving little dog. He's quite a little character and makes his foster parents laugh a lot. Beagle Boy is happiest when he's playing with his squeeky ball which he carries everywhere with him.

Ideal Home: Beagle Boy's ideal home would be with a family that's looking for a playful, but older dog. Don't forget that with older dogs you have to worry less about "puppy-behavior" like chewing, etc., and can spend more time enjoying your sweet, little dog.
