Willow and Stuart are the Animal Protection Society’s pets of the week

The Ani­mal Pro­tec­tion Soci­ety of Fri­day Har­bor shares a look at the adopt­able ani­mals of the week — two small 12-year-old dogs who came to San Juan Island by way of Texas.

Meet the newest dynam­ic duo — Wil­low and Stu­art. They are a sis­ter and broth­er who recent­ly came to us after their own­er grew ill and had to go into hos­pice care. Through this new life change of theirs, and in all areas, Wil­low and Stu­art live by the adage that “we’re bet­ter togeth­er.” Whether they’re pos­ing pret­ty, play­ing in the yard, hang­ing out with their favorite humans, or help­ing shel­ter staff in the recep­tion area, Wil­low and Stu­art strong­ly believe that every­thing is more fun when done together.

Although these sib­lings are a per­fect pair, you’ll nev­er have to wor­ry about feel­ing like a third wheel around them because they enthu­si­as­ti­cal­ly share their love with every­one they meet. Wil­low and Stu­art have eas­i­ly made friends with adults, kids, strangers, and oth­er dogs. But please, no cats.

Although we’ll miss them when they go, we know that Wil­low and Stu­art still have a lot of love to give and deserve their own fam­i­ly. They would love to find a home where there is a mix of activ­i­ty and lazi­ness. Wil­low and Stu­art are in their senior years, so they — wise with age — know the val­ue in after­noon naps and rest. But they also still want to be able to play when their youth­ful spir­it takes hold, which it often does. As if you weren’t already sold on these sweet angels, they are also great on a leash, do well in the car, and are crate and pot­ty trained.
