Meet our Pet of the Week, Bouncer!
Bouncer is our longest resident and is a special dog who deserves his moment. Around 5 years old and 64 pounds, Bouncer is a cancer survivor who came to us with several malignant tumors that needed to be removed. He’s been through more than most, and he’s come out the other side with a clean bill of health and a whole lot of love to give.
While his name suggests nonstop energy, Bouncer does have a softer side as well. He still has a playful bounce, but what he really wants is to be close to his people. He loves ear massages, butt scratches, and just hanging out nearby. He walks well on a harness, keeps an eye on any suspicious squirrels, and can look a little intimidating at first glance, until you realize he’s actually a total softie.
Bouncer has waited far too long for his forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who’s ready to finally be someone’s dog, Bouncer is ready to meet you. Learn more and apply at al-van.org/adopt

Wishlist
A new year means new beginnings, and for our dogs, that starts with something simple but essential: food.
This January, we’re hosting a Dog Food Drive with the goal being to collect 60 bags of dog food to help keep our pups healthy and ready for their next chapter. We are especially in need of Purina dry dog food, Purina Puppy Chow and wet dog food (any brand) to keep up with daily meals for dogs of all sizes and needs.
Donations can be dropped off at our Adoption Center or Rescued Treasures during open hours, or you can ship items directly from our Amazon or Chewy wishlists found at al-van.org/wishlist.
