Check out adoptable Marina hanging out for a sleepover at a foster’s home and out for a hike getting fresh air and attention. 🥰 She is soaking it all in!!

If you’re not looking to adopt right now, participating in these short-term opportunities is a GREAT way to help give the pets at the shelter a break as they wait for their furever homes. 🐾 Some pets like Marina who have been waiting a while so desperately want individual attention and some quieter time.

Sign up to be a volunteer or foster to get involved!! lchspets.org/volunteer
