Meet Cowboy! 🐾
Cowboy comes to LCAC, after his owner passed away. After speaking with family it is in Cowboy’s best interest to find a new home. Cowboy’s world has been flipped upside down and took him a few days just to stop shaking.
We have gained his likeness with some tasty treats. And now he won’t stop wagging his tail. ❤️ Cowboy is an older gentleman and will promise to treat you right. He is looking for a family to accept him as the chunky and lumpy boy he is and let him retire in home. He enjoys his bed and naps. He surprisingly jumps at the idea of walks and walks at a brisk pace! He is older and knows his manners. He listens well and is house broke. Cowboy has never lived with other animals and has been the one and only spoiled guy and would do best as the only animal in your home.

Meet Lady! 🐾
Lady is a gorgeous dog looking for her forever home.
Lady was originally found as a stray and living with her finder for a few weeks before coming in.
Lady is going to need a family with patience to work on her confidence levels. She is pretty skittish and jumps at sudden movements. When offered treats and toys she currently shows no interest.
Lady will need an owner who can give her some quiet time and boost her confidence through slow training sessions.
It would also be in the best interest for Lady to have a crate in her new home due to separation anxiety.
With proper training and socialization we expect Lady to blossom to a wonderful full of life dog! ❤️🐾 Breed/Coloring: Red/Black Shepherd Mix.
Sex: Female.
Estimated Age: 1-3 Years Old.
Health History/Alter History: No Known Vaccinations / Not Spayed.
Reason: Stray.
Important Information:
Cats: Introduce slowly and properly.
Dogs: Lady has been introduced to some dogs and showed no interest in them. She is scared by sudden moments by the other dog and tends to try to hide from them. Although we predict lady to benefit from another dog’s confidence, it may be too much for her to handle in the beginning. If you have another dog we would suggest a calmer dog who likes to relax but also knows basic obedience and would respect giving Lady her space and time. (No, young, full of energy dogs). Children: Due to her nervousness, we would suggest older children that will respect her space. (12+). As always, children should be taught to be respectful interactions around dogs.

Meet Alva! 🐾
Let’s give you some background information first:
Alva was originally called in at the beginning of January for being a “stray”. However on arrival officers found he was running around a certain house on the street and would not leave. Officers spent a few hours attempting to catch Alva, (who was avoiding us at all cost) and even set a live trap on the porch. We were unsuccessful. It wasn’t until the person who called him in as a “stray” showed up and he walked right up to this person, wagging his tail and waited to go inside 😢. Unfortunately without proof of ownership to said person, Alva was brought in as a “stray”. We have spent the last few weeks earning scared Alva’s trust and he is officially available for adoption. ❤️ We hope to find Alva a forever loving family who can give him the patience he needs to blossom into an awesome dog!
He does take a little bit to not be nervous and shake around a new person, but don’t worry he loves some treats and is easy to come around when he is comfortable. We do believe he will be extremely loyal to his owner!
Alva loves to play and brings his toy back to you and drops it for you! Alva also will be extremely easy to train as he loves treats and takes direction well.
Breed/Coloring: Tri Color Pit/Dane Mix.
Sex: Male.
Estimated Age: 1 Year Old.
Health History/Alter History: No Known Vaccinations / Not Neutered.
Reason: “stray”. Important Information:
Cats: No Cats!
Dogs: Meet & greets.
Children: we would suggest older children only due to his nervousness (12 + or so)

Selena is back and ready for her forever home! 🏡
Selena was adopted about three weeks ago, and like most cats needs time to adjust and an owner to put in the work. Selena began puking, associated with a harsh food change. After supposedly putting in the work to change the diet, “she just wouldn’t stop puking.” However, changing her food over a three week time period, every few days, didn’t give her belly time to settle and get used to a food. 😭 (We didn’t have an issue with her puking before adoption because thankfully our cats food stays pretty regular of being the same brand). Selena is looking for the right home to NOT feed Meow Mix. 🐾
Selena was previously in a home with an older couple and enjoyed their company quite a bit, and wouldn’t mind a similar home style. 🏡
Selena Info:
Breed/Coloring: White with Tiger DSH.
Sex: Female.
Estimated Age: 2 Years Old.
Health History/Alter History: No Known Vaccinations / Not Spayed.
Reason: Surrender.
Important Information:
Cats: introduce properly and slowly!
Dogs: Introduce slowly! (She can get a little frazzled by change, and she may prefer small dogs). Children: Wouldn’t mind calm kids! 🐾
