(KGTV) — Say hello to our Pet of the Week: Eva!

Come sweep away this sweet 8-month-old Hound blend. You won’t be able to resist Eva’s larger-than-life personality to the daily full-body wiggles that will keep you petting her forever. She loves to be active and has been learning some agility training to help burn off her energy. She will do best in a home with no children under 12 years old and a yard to let her zoomies out. She may not be the greatest treat catcher, but we love her for it. If you are looking for your EVAlasting love, wait no more, she is ready for you!

You can adopt me at the Helen Woodward Animal Center:
6461 El Apajo Road
Rancho Santa Fe
858-756-4177
Kennels are open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and weekends from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Past Pets of the Week:
Ember #812096
- American Pit Bull Terrier mix
- Female
- 6 years
- Adoption Fee: $5 through October 2 thanks to our “Fall in Love” adoption promo!
- Pet Profile

This sweet gal is Ember! Ember is a staff and volunteer favorite who does a fantastic wiggle dance and loves her toys! Ember has made a lot of progress in our care and we have loved getting to know her. Did we mention she loves toys and balls? She does! And she will often bring them with her when she is taken out to play. We can’t wait for this darling pitbullpotamus to find the wonderful home that she deserves, where she can continue to thrive and receive positive reinforcement training. If you are ready to give Ember all the cuddles and tasty treats she deserves. Ember is available for adoption but living in a foster home.

Ember and she has been in our care for several months. We could tell she was starting to feel a little discouraged that she hasn’t found a home yet, so we decided to give her a little pick-me-up by throwing her a special pittie party!

Dana #704609
- American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Female
- 6 Yrs
- Adoption fee: sponsored by Purina! (And all adult dog adoption fees are currently waived until September 18!)
- Pet profile

What does Dana want? She wants a yard to run in, she wants a comfy bed to crash on, and she wants an active owner that wants to go on adventures with her! This goof has been with us for a while, and as much as we love her, we'd love even more to see her go home. Wide-open spaces are definitely more her jam, while apartment living would likely cramp her style. Dana has too much energy and excitement for young children and needs a home with kids over the age of 12. Dana is an only dog kind of girl and her need to chase makes her an unlikely cat friend. Dana will thrive in a home that wants to work with her and continue her training, we want to see her go home so much that SDHS will cover a free training class for her! We have seen her come so far and can't wait for her to go home.

And great news! Dana has been graciously sponsored by Purina! This means that the adoption fee has already been paid for!

Now is a great time to adopt as all adult dog adoption fees are waived through September 18th!
