Table of Contents

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - This weekend animal-lovers can stop by the Tallahassee Animal Service Center to meet dogs and cats awaiting adoption and browse an assortment of new and gently used pet supplies at the shelter’s monthly yard sale. It’s Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon.

Furry Friday is a collaboration between WCTV and the Tallahassee Animal Service Center designed to get shelter dogs out of their kennels and into the spotlight in hopes of helping them get adopted.

Here are the dogs we are featuring this week:

MEET BISHOP!

Meet Bishop!

This easy going boy is a perfect trading partner.

He’s always ready to trade sloppy kisses for delicious treats!

He is patient and gentle, but NOT boring!

Bishop enjoys walking the trail and running through the tall grass.

He’s happy to lean in for a back scratch or a head scratch and can’t wait to find a family that thinks he’s as handsome and charming ... as Julie does.

You can see his shiny coat and winning smile for yourself when you visit the shelter this weekend!

MEET SWEET POTATO!

Meet Sweet Potato.

Her name really sums it up.

Our 30 minute stroll turned into a 30 minute massage instead.

Sweet Potato was not interested in walking at all.

Apparently she prefers lap surfing, snuggling and making sure we had ample opportunities to rub her belly.

This puppy is ready to crawl into your lap and smother you with doggie kisses.

You can meet Sweet Potato at the shelter this weekend!

MEET ZOWIE!

Meet Zowie!

This caramel cutie has a zest for life and a taste for treats!

Plus her eyes and her coat are a perfect match!

Zowie loves cracked windows and car rides, playing in sprinklers and taking a dip in the pool.

She excels at the belly crawl and the belly rubs that may follow!

Zowie misses being part of a family. She can’t wait to take a deep breath, let her hair down and be loved once more.

Zowie is in foster care so please make an appointment to meet her at the shelter this weekend!

MEET ADDY!

This speckled sweetheart is ready to charm you with her luxe brown bikini and her adorable underbite. All she needs now is a pair of tortoise shell sunglasses!

Addy has two speeds: full speed and full snuggle!

She charmed everyone at Tails and Trails recently but somehow everyone made it home without her.

Addy is more than ready for her shot at a loyal, loving family!

Please visit her at the shelter this weekend!

MEET AND GREET

You can meet these dogs and dozens more awaiting adoption at the Tallahassee Animal Service Center. It’s located across from Tom Brown Park at 1125 Easterwood Drive in Tallahassee.

People can walk through the kennels Wednesday through Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. People can also visit by appointment the rest of the week from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m.

Check out all the dogs and cats available for adoption on the shelter’s website.

CONGRATULATIONS!

We are excited to share that another dog recently featured on Furry Friday has just been adopted! Congratulations to Yanna and her new family!
