A2 • HERMISTONHERALD.COM SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 2015 LOCAL WEATHER Pet of the week Today's Weather Hi, my name is Bandit. I am a male Corgi/collie-mix 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, and I am good with children and oth- er dogs. I am 1 year 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 refund. If you are interested in welcoming Bandit to your family, please stop by the humane society at 1844 N.W. Geer Road, Hermiston, or call 541-564-6222.
