Dior had a very special visit to Greenmont Element Dior had a very special visit to Greenmont Elementary! 🐾 The students at an after-school club organized a donation drive to support animals in our care, collecting supplies with so much thoughtfulness and hard work. Dior’s visit was our chance to thank them in person and show just how much their generosity means to the animals waiting for forever homes. Our three-legged wunderpup was the perfect guest, spreading smiles, tail wags, and plenty of joy while meeting all the students. Their kindness made a real difference, and it was heartwarming to celebrate their efforts together. And the best news? Dior found his forever home shortly after the visit! 💛 Three legs, endless love, and a heart full of gratitude thanks to the amazing students at Greenmont Elementary. 🐶💖 #AdoptDontShop #ThreeLeggedWonder #HumaneSociety #AnimalRescue #ForeverHome #ShelterDogs #DogsofInstagram #PuppyLove #KindKids #DonationDrive #AnimalCare #GoodDeeds #FurryFriends #DogLovers #PetAdoption
Meet Marion, the spunky stray turned professional Meet Marion, the spunky stray turned professional toy-tosser. This girl may have started out roaming the streets on her own, but these days she’s much more interested in showing off her impressive fetch skills and redecorating her space… usually by dramatically tossing her salad bowl across the room. Interior design is clearly a passion. Marion isn’t much of a cuddle bunny. Instead, she brings main character energy wherever she goes. If there’s a toy nearby, it will be thrown. If there’s a bowl nearby, it might also be thrown. Life with Marion is never boring, and she keeps everyone laughing with her playful antics and big personality. She is managing a metabolic condition that requires a strict, high quality diet, but it doesn’t slow her down one bit. Marion currently lives in a foster home where her diet can be carefully managed, and because she isn’t at the shelter every day, she tends to get overlooked. We’d love to see this hilarious, resilient girl finally find a family of her own. If you’re looking for a fluffy ball of fun with a dash of sass, Marion might be the perfect match for you.

🐹🐇 Small Animal Enrichment & Puppy Pads Needed! W 🐹🐇 Small Animal Enrichment & Puppy Pads Needed! We currently have over 100 small animals in our care, including guinea pigs, chinchillas, and rabbits. Many of these animals came to us through an ongoing investigation, which means they are not available for adoption or fostering yet. Until custody is decided, our dedicated staff is providing all the care they need. With so many animals, we are in dire need of small animal enrichment items to keep them happy, healthy, and engaged. We’re also running low on puppy pads, which are essential for many of our animals and programs throughout the shelter. 📦 You can shop our Amazon Wishlist here: https://amzn.to/3VWFuTl 🏠 In-person donations are always welcome during our open hours: Tuesday-Friday 1-6 PM and Saturday 12-4 PM Every donation, big or small, helps our team provide comfort, stimulation, and care for these animals while they wait for their forever chance at safety and stability. Thank you for supporting our animals and helping our staff give them the love and care they need 🐾 #WishlistWednesday #SmallAnimalCare #EnrichmentNeeded #PuppyPads #DaytonHumane #SupportShelters #DonateToday #HelpLocalAnimals #AnimalEnrichment
