Do you ever get to leave work and just go play with animals?  Don't tell the bosses but a few days ago, our team at Townsquare Media in Rochester, Minnesota broke out of the studios and spent a little time showing some furry animals some attention.  We saw puppies, big dogs, cats, and some pretty adorable kittens...quite a few that were just way too tired to even open their eyes to say "hello".

There are two amazing dogs though that we fell in love with that we wanted to tell you about...because they would be amazing pets and are ready for a new home now!

Meet Kira and her best friend, Jax! These two were found running on their own, and taken in to our friends at Leashes and Leads. No owners came forward, so they are now here at Paws and Claws so that they can find their forever home!

Jax and Kira are young, happy, and active dogs who would love a home with a big fenced yard to romp around in! They love each other very much, and we are for a family who can adopt them together!

We know that's not something everyone can do, adopt 2 big dogs at once, and that's ok! All we need, is for the right family to come in and meet these too, with enough room in their hearts and home to add this pair in. Interested in meeting these besties? Apply online!
