QUEEN

Meet our Queen! She’s all decked out in regal attire with her Tuxedo of jet black, medium-length luscious fur. Pristine white trims her chin, bib, toes and long whiskers. At 18 months, this attractive girl has huge bright eyes and a friendly and gentle nature. Queen will grace the family setting and be a faithful companion and playful friend. Come have an audience with Queen and get to know her in person. She is available through Saturday at the shelter.

KENT

Say hi to Kent, our handsome three-month-old, black and tan, Rottweiler-Hound-mix puppy. He’s a friendly, playful, gentle, smart pup who loves people and other dogs. Kent will be the perfect pup to bring into a growing family and have him grow up with the kids. Rottweilers are loyal, companion dogs. Surrendered by his former owners, as they could no longer keep him, this is a perfect chance to scoop him up. Kent will not only be a good dog … Kent will be Super Dog!

He’s available through Saturday at the shelter. Overcrowded conditions at the shelter makes this a great time to come in and adopt a dog or puppy and give it a good forever home.
