Meet Our Pet of the Week!
Have a Merry Time with Melvin!
Helen Woodward Animal Center Pet-of-the-Week
Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. –Melvin is a handsome 2-year-old Lab blend who spreads joy to everyone he meets. He is very smart, and since working with the Center’s trainers, he’s become confident, independent, and ready to find his forever family. Melvin would love a home with a yard to roam in and a family to take him on long walks to explore. He does well with some of the Center’s other adoptable dogs and could thrive with a dog sibling! Most of all, he wants a relaxed home where he can get lots of attention and love. Melvin has so much love to offer – will you give him a home for the holidays?
He’s waiting to meet you at Helen Woodward Animal Center. He has been altered and is up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. As with all pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center, he is microchipped for identification.
Kitten BOGO
Did you know that adopting two kittens is better than adopting just
one? Young felines flourish when they have another feline friend.
Right now, when you adopt two kitties, we will waive the adoption
fee of the second!
Helen Woodward Animal Center pets come from a variety of sources, such as the transfer of animals from public shelters to relieve overcrowding, working with local dog and cat rescues, as well as owner surrender. Every animal in our pet adoption program has received a medical examination, spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, tons of TLC and a microchip. Our goal is to adopt our pets into loving and permanent homes. Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoption Counselors are here to help you choose a pet who will be your perfect match for life.
