Buck has taken over front desk duty today… and let Buck has taken over front desk duty today… and let’s just say customer service has never been this adorable! 🐾

At just 7 months old, this Doberman mix is deep in his awkward teenage phase. All legs, oversized paws, and goofy energy, Buck is still growing into those feet of his. Every now and then he forgets where they all are and gives us a little clumsy moment… but honestly, that just makes him even more lovable.

He’s sweet, silly, a little shy, and very excited about his new role as today’s official greeter. If you stop by, don’t be surprised if you’re welcomed by a wiggly, big-pawed teenager who is very proud of himself for saying hello.

Buck is hanging out at the front desk greeting visitors today, so stop by during open hours to meet him! And who knows… you might just fall in love with this goofy growing boy. 🐶💙

Some cats walk into your life. Jonathan Taylor Tho Some cats walk into your life. Jonathan Taylor Thomas does a brave little hobble right in and steals your heart. 😽

JTT came to the Humane Society of Greater Dayton after what we believe was a car accident, suffering multiple fractures to his right rear leg and pelvis. To give him a pain free future, his right rear leg was amputated. After six weeks of crate rest in a loving foster home, his pelvis had time to heal and stabilize. It didn’t heal perfectly, which gives him that slightly awkward little hobble… but he gets around just fine.

And he truly does not let it slow him down.

He uses his litterbox like a champ, navigates his space confidently, and has adjusted to life on three legs with so much quiet resilience. Because of how his pelvis healed, he may be more prone to arthritis as he gets older, so keeping him at a healthy, slim weight will be important.

JTT does not see himself as fragile. He is strong, adaptable, and so deserving of a family who will see his three legs not as a limitation, but as proof of everything he has overcome.

If you are ready for a resilient little legend with the sweetest hobble, Jonathan is ready for you. 💙 hsdayton.org/adopt/cats
