Pet of the Week

Kaiser

If you visit Kaiser be careful where you leave your shoes or wallet. Chances are you'll be walking home penniless and in stocking feet because not only does Kaiser steal anything he can sink his chompers into, but he buries it too. This mischevious 3-year-old neutered Dachsund mix is light brown and has an extra long lower jaw, giving him a salmon-like appearance. After a long day of kleptomania (as well as his other favorite games of chasing cars and catching tennis balls), when he's ready for sleep, Kaiser will roll himself up in a sheet like a sausage*and bite little eye holes to see through. No joke. Kaiser is a character. He needs a human willing to put up with his idiosyncracies, keep*him under control*and laugh along with his antics.

If you'd like to adopt a pet, call or stop by the Animal Shelter on the Bypass across from the post office. The shelter is open seven days a week, 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. Call 235-3141, e-mail pow@ homeranimals.com, or visit the shelter's Web site at www.homeranimals.com.
