Let Orlando...Bloom! Today's Pet of the Week

If you're looking for a pup with plenty of loving years left - but it just past the "puppy stage" in life - then meet Orlando: today's Pet of the Week from Tri-County Humane Society.

Orlando is a neutered 4ish-year-old mixed breed who's a big fan of Kongs. He came to Tri-County Humane Society as a stray, so it's not known how he reacts to children, cats, or other dogs. Slow and proper introductions are the way, and lots of exercise will keep Orlando happy.

Book Buddies Reading Program

Pets love to be read to. If you have a kiddo (age 5-15 years preferred) in your household who would LOVE to read to a shelter resident, then the Book Buddies program is for you (them)! Pets don't care about mispronounced words, and it's beneficial for both the kiddo (who gets practice reading aloud) and the resident, as shelter life can be stressful.
