said. “It was my last class day at Tarleton before my break and I left
early to get to the shelter on time.”
She was serious about finding a dog, so she looked on their
website and found a couple of suitable options, but Davis had
specific needs.
“I needed a calm but protective larger dog that liked cats and
was good with horses and livestock.” She came upon a lab mix
whose name was Bucky and decided to invest a little time with him.
“I walked him for a long time and took him around the cats
and livestock at the shelter and he was a dream,” she said. Davis
adopted him, they drove home together and they have become best
friends.
“He immediately bonded with the horses and my cats played
with him. He loves to run in the pasture next to me while I’m riding
horses and he plays in the water. He has his own couch in my
house and sleeps sound all the way through the night. He goes to
Dairy Queen with me to get a ‘pup cup,’” said Davis. She renamed
him ‘Sir George’ because of his impeccable posture.
“George is my best friend and I can thank the volunteers and the
Weatherford shelter for helping me adopt him,” Katy said. A happy
“tail” for sure!
With all the work needed to keep the shelter a no-kill facil-
ity, WPCAS is currently looking for volunteers who have an extra
hour each week and would like to make a displaced animal’s day.
Volunteers have to be at least 16 years old and can use the commu-
nity service hours for their school. Giving a heart and hand will lift
your spirits and fill your heart with love.
To volunteer, go to www.weatherfordtx.gov/animals for more
