JENNY is a sweet 2-year-old
coonhound who is hoping to
love her way into your heart.
She is a talkative girl who loves to
play with other dogs. She has also
met with a cat at the shelter and
was respectful. Jenny absolutely
loves the water! She’ll make an
excellent adventure partner,
although she will likely need to
stay on leash as she is a hound,
and will follow her nose wherever
it leads! If Jenny sounds like the
girl for you, come meet her today!
Poor SPOOKY! His long-time
owner had to relinquish him when
he could no longer take care of
him. Spooky is about 9 and is very
used to people, a friendly boy in
search of his new people. He’s still
learning to make his way around
the cattery at the shelter, but is
defi nitely worth your consideration
as a mellow guy who just wants
some attention, with plenty to give
in return! He’s neutered, chipped,
and up-to-date on vaccines.
