Perhaps like some of y’all, each day that we get a bit warmer temperature, I want to grab hold and hang on! But I’ve also lived around here long enough to know winter isn’t over until it decides it’s over. In the meantime, we take comfort in imagining what those warmer Spring days will be like when they arrive. And for many of us, that means outside sports.

Hey, folks! My name is Atticus. I came to the Shelter in late October (do not tell anyone, but I even had a police escort, thanks to the Flippin Police Department). I was feeling kind of sad because I was very hungry, and my skin was badly infected. I did not know what I was going to do. But the officer brought me to HAH and the nice people here have gotten me all fixed up. I’m now in excellent health (amazing what regular meals will do for ya!). I heard the volunteers say I walk well on a leash, I am housebroken, and I love all the volunteers! I am kind of a lady’s man...I get along well with the female dogs, but I am not at all crazy about other males (especially if they are intact). The folks at the Shelter think I am a lab and terrier mix, and I currently weigh around 65 pounds. Would you like to get to know me?
