Meet Ariel, a two year old Staffie mix weighing around 60 pounds.

Ariel might just be part seal-at least that's what her soulful eyes, shiny coat, and adorably expressive face would have you believe! But one thing's for sure: she's 100% heart. This incredibly friendly girl is all about the people. Ariel doesn't just love humans-she adores them. She's never met a stranger, only future best friends, and she's always ready to dole out hugs, snuggles, and full-body tail wags. If you're sitting, she'll be in your lap; if you're standing, she'll lean in for love.

Photos don't do her justice-partly because she was convinced the camera might steal her soul (we promise it didn't). So, while we tried our best, you really just have to come meet Ariel in person to experience the magic. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate, human-oriented companion who will never let you feel unloved, Ariel is waiting with open paws.

This pet is available for adoption on 8/19/2025 at 1:49 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.

Did you know YHS offers a "Foster to Adopt" program?
It's a fun way to make sure you and your potential new pet are the perfect match-like a sleepover, but with extra cuddles! Spend a little time together before making things official. It's a win-win! Just stop by the front desk and ask how to get started.

Ready to adopt?
Great news-our spayed/neutered pets are available to go home the same day! You can visit us in person, give us a call, or apply online-whatever works best for you.
For online adoptions please fill out our quick adoption questionnaire here: https://yakimahumane.org/adopt/apply/

Your adoption fee includes:
A lovable new companion, spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations + deworming, flea/tick treatment, rabies vaccine (for pets 3-4 months and older), and microchip with nationwide registration.
Every adoption helps support YHS and our community spay/neuter programs to end pet overpopulation.

Questions?
We'd love to hear from you! Email us at [email protected], call us, or just stop by.

Let's help you meet your new best friend!
