Pet of the Week: Clyde from HARP 04:19

Are you looking to bring a pet into your home? Local animal shelters are a great place to find a furry companion. So, as part of Furry Tails, I'll be doing an ongoing feature on adoptable pets from local animal shelters once a week. If you have room in your heart and are looking to bring a lovable ball of fur into your home, maybe one of these guys is meant to be a part of your family!

Animal Friends Pet Profile:

Harrison, named after gifted musician George Harrison, came to Animal Friends through our Humane Investigations Department. After spending time in a loving foster home, he is ready to sing a new tune - with a family of his own! Harrison is an easygoing boy who has great leash-walking skills and appreciates nature. This treat-motivated pup loves working on enrichment and basic behavior skills, in between cuddling sessions. He would thrive in a household where children are 13 and older and he is the only dog. Won't you please "Help!" Harrison find a home?

If you can help, come to Animal Friends at 562 Camp Horne Road, Pittsburgh, Pa., 15237 or call 412-847-7000. For more information on how you can adopt any of the pets at Animal Friends, visit their website here!

Meet Bertha! This beautiful queen is an 8-year-old pit bull mix. She has been looking for her forever home since December. When Bertha arrived at the WAHS she was underweight and suffering from severe glaucoma in her right eye. She has since received surgery and treatment from our medical team and is ready for her happily ever after. Bertha loves to chew bones, play with stuffed toys, and cuddle up with big, comfy blankets.
