Sweet lady AMEY is a 6-year-old
beagle/pug mix, seeking her forever
home. Amey arrived at the shelter
when her owner could no longer
care for her. She is a cuddler who
knows “sit,” “stay,” “come” and “lay
down.” Amey didn’t have much
interest in the cat she met at the
shelter. But she can be slightly picky
about her doggie friends, so a
meet-and-greet with any canine
relatives is recommended before
adoption. Come meet her today!
