Behr & Italia: This Week’s Adoptable Pets at the Williamson County Shelter

Meet This Week’s Adoptable Pets

Behind every adoption story is a team that shows up day after day for animals who can’t advocate for themselves. This week, we want to take a moment to celebrate the staff and volunteers at the Williamson County shelter, whose compassion and dedication give abandoned pets a second chance at finding love. Their tireless work, from feeding and caring for these animals to matching them with the right families, doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves, but it makes all the difference.

Here’s the shelter introduces this week’s two pets of the week:

Looking for a dog with Olympic-level fetch skills and the manners of a gentleman? Meet Behr, our gorgeous chocolate brown hunk who has turned playing fetch into an art form. Not only is he lightning-fast and graceful as he chases down his favorite ball, but he’s also incredibly polite about it—placing the ball gently at your feet and giving you the most endearing look that clearly says, “Please, kind human, just one more throw?” Behr’s got brains to go with all that charm. He’s house-trained, food-motivated, and if you’ve got a treat handy, you’ll have his full attention. On hot days, he’ll treat himself to a little splash through the pool mid-fetch, showing off his silly, joyful side.

This pet has an Adoption Angel, this means his adoption fee has been covered by a generous donation!

Ciao and purrs! I’m Italia, and now that I’ve finished raising my precious kittens, it’s finally my turn to be spoiled! I’m a sweet girl with a one-of-a-kind coat that’s just as beautiful as my purr-sonality. My dream home includes fun toys to chase, a cozy bed for my daily catnaps, and loving paw-rents who will shower me with affection (and maybe a few tasty treats, too!). I’ve been the best mama I could be, and now I’m ready to trade motherhood for a lifetime of purrs, cuddles, and happily-ever-after.
