Yall know I work at my local animal shelter now, so help me share these sweet dogs pics and let's help find them a home! Also- if you'll go follow our the shelter's FB page- CARES Clarksdale Animal Rescue Effort and Shelter, it would mean so much not only to me, but to all the animals in our care that we work so hard to find homes for! TIA!!

🐾💖 Shelter Dog of the Day: Bailey 💖🐾

This pretty girl has been watching her world go by from inside our shelter since May, and she’s wondering when it will finally be her turn. Meet Bailey, a 6-month-old Lab Retriever mix who weighs about 35 lbs. She’s already spayed, heartworm negative, and ready to pack her little puppy bags for a forever home.

Bailey is everything you’d want in a best friend—bouncy, playful, and always ready to make you smile. She loves other dogs and would thrive in a home where she has space to romp, play, and then curl up at your feet when she’s all tuckered out.

She’s been with us 119 days, and while we’ve loved watching her grow, we can’t wait to see her running through her very own backyard, chasing toys, and cuddling with her family at night.

✨ Bailey has so much love to give, and she’s been waiting patiently for the right people to find her. Maybe that’s you?

📩 Send us a message or apply online at www.caresclarksdale.com to meet Bailey and give her the home she’s been dreaming of.

🐾 Today’s Shelter Dog of the Day post is Sponsored by First National Bank. We are so grateful for their continued support of CARES and the animals in our community. 💛

Hope everyone is staying dry and warm today! ☕️

I'm so thankful to be working from home today, doing what I enjoy with a cat snoozing beside me. 🐈‍⬛

I'm finishing up a few holiday orders today. 🎁

Here's a sneak peek at what's on my rack today. 👀 It's the start of a navy blue hanging bookshelf! It's still a work in progress, but I'll be sure to post more pics once it's complete!!
