Here at 97.3 The Dawg we just love our four-legged furry friends.

Unfortunately, there are more animals than you may imagine that need a good home. Shelters throughout Acadiana are sometimes overflowing with lovable, family friendly dogs that are just looking for someone to care and love them.

We decided to try to help out in this cause by getting more of these sweet babies adopted and/or fostered into loving homes.

In the video above you’ll meet our friend Mickey. He loves people, toys, playing and being the center of attention. He's around 6 years old and weighs 7-8 lbs. Mickey is great with other dogs, cats, and kids. He's leash trained and crate trained. Great apartment companion or smaller living area. Very affectionate and loyal.

To apply to meet and possibly foster or adopt Mickey, where he is patiently waiting for his forever home, please visit: http://www.arfla.org/info/adoption

You can also follow them on Facebook at Animal Rescue Foundation of Louisiana. They are currently looking for fosters, volunteers and sponsors at ARFLA.

You won’t change the world by saving one animal, but you will change that animal’s world!
