Montgomery County Animal Care and Control

As most folks are aware our Shelter is completely full of adoptable cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. This is a very critical as well as time sensitive situation and we want to start showcasing as many available, adoptable pets from the shelter as possible so they can find their forever families. All pets are fully vetted, some are already neutered and spayed which means they can go home the same day. The others will be spayed and neutered before heading to their new homes. Please take a moment to go to MCACC’s Petfinder page to check out all adoptables.

Two Ladies Caring Dog Rescue

Buckley is a 3 year old male Boxer. He is a big guy weighing around 60 pounds. He is fully vetted, neutered and house trained. He knows some basic commands and walks pretty well on his leash but can pull if he gets excited so he would possibly do better with a harness to help his impulses and easily and smoothly correct his pulling. He will play tug of war with all his rope toys and tries to play fetch but prefers to keep the ball for himself. He is good around other dogs but needs a cat free home please. Buckley can play rough just due to him not being aware of his size, but settles down nicely and becomes a couch potato. You can find him and fill out an application at our website twoladiescaringdogrescue.org or call 931-401-6737 and FB Two Ladies Caring Dog Rescue.
