A
Hello
and
thank
you
for
tuning
in
to
this
episode
of
animals
and
Ames.
My
name
is
Ron
Edwards
I'm,
the
animal
control
supervisor
here
for
the
Ames,
Animal,
Shelter
and
animal
control
program.
Our
first
guest
with
us
today
is
Ludo
bean
lunabeam
was
surrendered
to
us
by
the
owner.
She
was
adopted
from
the
Oregon
Humane
Society
and
then
the
her
pet
parents
moved
here
from
Oregon
and
unfortunately
she
doesn't
like
kitties.
A
So
they
found
out
that
a
kitty
that
they
had
in
the
house
would
not
be
a
good
companion
with
Ludo
bean,
so
she
was
surrendered
to
us.
She
is
what
we're
calling
a
terrier
mix
very
sweet
girl
news
week.
Yes,
you
are
very:
very
sweet
dog
oops,
come
on
jump
up,
jump
up,
very
sweet
dog
that
unfortunately,
just
doesn't
like
kitties.
So
now
we
know
that,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
find
a
home
for
Ludo
beam
where
she's
not
going
to
have
any
other
kitties
in
the
house.
A
One
of
the
things
with
her
is
that
she's
also
a
little
possessive
of
her
stuff
with
other
dogs
in
the
house.
So
we
think
that
Ludo
bean
would
probably
be
the
best
pet
and
the
only
pet
in
the
home,
she's,
very
sweet
I
understand
she
does
need
a
little
bit
of
training
on
the
house,
training
potty
training
for
her,
but
she
is
a
very
sweet
and
gentle
dog.
A
Very
playful
lots
of
energy
loves
to
just
run
and
sprint
in
the
in
the
play
yard
that
we
have
outside
so
just
a
very
fun
energetic
dog.
So
if
you're
looking
for
a
dog
that
has
lots
of
energy,
maybe
a
dog
that'll
go
running
with
you
or
if
you
have
a
nice
fenced-in
secure
yard
where
she
can
run
out
and
play.
A
But
of
course
we
want
to
make
sure
that
Ludo
lives
indoors,
especially
right
now,
this
time
of
the
year
it
is
so
cold
outside
and
with
this
little
fur
that
she
has
on
there,
she
really
has
no
protection
at
all
with
the
cold
weather.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
Ludo
bean
is
completely
safe
and
comfortable
out
there
and
and
finds
that
really
good
forever
home.
So
she
doesn't,
she
doesn't
get
bounced
around.
A
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
make
a
good
match
for
her
and
find
her
that
best
place
that
we
can
find
for.
So,
if
you're
interested
in
Ludo
beam,
you
can
complete
an
adoption
application
at
our
website,
which
is
wwm
animal
shelter,
org
or
you
can
come
in
here
to
the
shelter
and
complete
an
application
in
person.
A
But
if
you're
interested
in
Ludo
beam
or
like
to
know
more
about
her,
give
us
a
call
here
at
the
shelter
you
can
reach
us
at
five
one:
five,
two,
three:
nine
five,
five,
three
zero
again
take
a
look
at
our
website
for
additional
information.
You
can
always
see
pets
that
are
available
for
adoption
on
our
website.
A
In
our
next
guest
with
us
today
is
ion,
Zion
is
a
happy
puppy
who
is
really
excited
to
be
in
the
cat
room
here.
He
sees
all
the
cat
toys
and
wants
to
go
get
them.
He
also
keeps
pulling
on
his
leash,
so
Zion
obviously
has
a
lot
of
energy.
We
need
a
very
special
home
for
him,
as
you
can
see
down
here,
he's
had
his
surgery,
so
all
of
those
masses
have
been
removed
and
the
good
thing
is.
A
A
But
he
really
is
a
very
nice
dog
and
we're
really
just
hoping
for
a
special
home
for
him,
someone
that
maybe
has
had
some
bully
breed
experience,
someone
that
understands
that
these
guys
have
a
lot
of
energy
a
lot
of
muscle,
but
they
can
also
be
a
lot
of
fun
and
a
lot
of
love
to
give
here
was
ion.
So
if
you
are
interested
in
Zion
come
on
down
to
the
shelter,
we
would
love
to
introduce
you
to
him
and
see
if
he
might
be
a
good
match
for
you
and
your
family.
A
And
our
next
guest
today,
our
final
guest
for
the
show
today
is
Luna
and
Dora.
These
are
two
bonded
guinea
pigs
that
we
have
here
at
the
shelter
that
are
available
for
adoption.
We've
been
getting
more
and
more
of
these
guinea
pigs
that
are
brought
in
here
for
adoption,
because
the
owners
can
either
no
longer
care
for
them
or
they
don't
have
the
time
or
the
ability
to
to
give
these
guys
the
home
that
they
need
and
desire.
They
are
very,
very
sweet
creatures.
A
Guinea
pigs
can
be
a
lot
of
fun,
but
they
do
require
a
lot
of
work.
We
always
tell
people
to
go
to
the
guinea
pig
Manuel
calm.
It
is
a
website
that
has
lots
of
information
about
how
to
care
for
these
very
special
creatures,
how
to
make
sure
that
they're
getting
all
the
nutrients
that
they
should
have.
One
thing
that's
critically
important
with
guinea
pigs
is
they
get
all
the
vitamin
C
that
they
need
and
again
there's
lots
of
information
on
websites
about
them
on
how
to
properly
care?
For
them.
A
You
want
to
make
sure
you
have
a
very
good
size
environment
for
them,
so
their
cage
should
be
a
very
good
size.
I
always
tell
people
get
the
absolute
largest
housing
enclosure
that
you
can
afford
for
them
because
they
do
have.
They
have
a
lot
of
fun
running
around
and
playing
and
just
doing
things
that
guinea
pigs
like
to
do
so
again,
they're
very
special
creatures-
and
it's
very
important
to
us
here
that
we
understand
that
these
are
animals
that
deserve
a
forever
home
and
someone
that's
committed
to
caring
for
them
for
their
entire
life.
A
Now,
unfortunately,
guinea
pigs
don't
live
very
long,
but
for
whatever
time
that
we
have
with
them,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
loved
they
are
cared
for,
that
they
get
vet
care
as
necessary.
It's
all
very
important.
It's
also
very
important
again
that
they
get
the
proper
vitamin
C
that
they
need
so
pellets.
A
lot
of
green
leafy
vegetables,
cilantro,
parsley,
romaine
lettuce.
Those
are
all
really
good
for
them.
So
if
you
were
interested
in
Luna
and
Dora
they're
a
bonded
pair,
so
they
do
have
to
be
adopted
together.
A
That's
our
show
for
today
when
I
thank
everybody
for
watching
that
was
just
a
quick
sampling.
We
got
two
dogs
there
and
two
guinea
pigs
I
want
to
tell
you.
We
have
quite
a
few
cats.
We
were
very
fortunate.
We've
had
so
many
adoptions
at
our
cat
room
that
we've
taken
in
some
cats
from
the
Animal
Rescue
League
of
Iowa
down
in
Des
Moines,
so
very
happy
that
we
can
help
our
partner
shelter.
A
So
if
your
instead
of
meeting
some
of
those
cats,
you
can
look
online
and
get
pictures
see
all
the
pictures
of
the
animals
that
we
have
here
again.
That's
Ames
Animal
Shelter
org,
but
you
can
always
see
updated.
Real-Time.
All
the
animals
are
available
for
adoption
or
even
those
pets
that
are
lost
so
really
important.
If
you
lost
a
pet,
you
want
to
go
immediately
to
our
website
if
you
lost
it
here
in
the
city
of
Ames,
go
immediately
to
our
website
and
see
if
your
furry
friend
is
on
our
website.
