Happy Wet Nose Wednesday! Let's talk animals.

The love of a pet will always make a house a home, and if you want to add a pet to your family, please consider adoption.

Hundreds of animals are waiting patiently at local shelters, hoping to find their forever families once and for all.

Every week, we give one animal the spotlight, and this week, we head to Fall River where an adorable pup is stealing the hearts of everyone at the shelter.

Meet Zara. Zara the pit bull is about 3 years old and "45 pounds of perfection", according to the team at Forever Paws Animal Shelter.

"Zara is perfect," said the shelter. "Watching this girl go from massive scaredy-cat in the kennels to sweet, social snuggle bug has been nothing short of magical."

Zara loves to play with the other dogs at the shelter and responds best to soft voices and softer touches.

"She's a gentle soul," said the shelter.

Zara has never interacted with cats before, so the shelter recommends a cat-free home. She does great with other dogs and children should be at least 8 years of age or older due to her size.

"If you want your own little slice of heaven, Zara is your girl," said the shelter.

Does Zara sound like a good fit for you and your family? Visit Forever Paws online and fill out an adoption application.

Zara cannot wait to meet you.
