Please say hi to Bootsie, our Pet of the Week this week! She’s a gorgeous blue and white, medium-sized pup who’s always got a big smile for you! As POTW, her adoption fee is waived through next Tuesday, June 30.
APS of Durham also extended the Pick Your Price adoption special through June 30. Adopters can take home any of our dogs or adult cats (one year or older) for the adoption fee they choose!

More about Bootsie:
Notice anything special about me? Yup, I’m sporting four perfectly matching bright white socks, which is how I got my name! I’m a year-old bundle of joy and enthusiasm who treats every day like a brand-new adventure. As a self-proclaimed busy bee, my favorite activities include investigating interesting scents, exploring the great outdoors, and keeping you thoroughly entertained with my silly antics. If you’re looking for a sweet-as-pie sidekick who is always down for a weekend hike or a long evening stroll, I’m your girl!
I’ll make a fantastic plus-one for a family that loves to get out and about! I also value a gentle introduction — when meeting new human pals, I like to take a quick second to do a little sniffing and assess the vibe. Once I realize you’re cool (a tasty treat or two goes a long way on that front!), my cautious side melts away and my warm, affectionate personality shines right through. I’m at that perfect age where I’m eager to learn everything about the world, and I’d love nothing more than a human teammate who is excited to teach me the ropes and work on new skills together!
Imagine waking up to my happy, smiling face, venturing out to conquer a local trail, and then heading home to relax together after a day well spent. We’ll make the perfect team!
