Pet of the week
Today's Weather
Hi, my name is Max. I am a male Lab-
rador available for adoption at the Humane
Society of Eastern Oregon Pet Rescue in
Hermiston.
I was surrendered by my owner, and
I need a new home. I’ve already had my
shots, I’m house trained and I am good
with children and other dogs. I am 5 years
old and can be adopted for $125. I come
with a free vet check and a three-day return
policy. If I am neutered within 60 days of
adoption, my owner will receive a $50 re-
fund.
If you are interested in welcoming Max
to your family, please stop by the humane
society at 1844 N.W. Geer Road, Hermis-
ton, or call 541-564-6222.
