Pet of the Week

Blackie

It's not polite to ask a lady her age, but in Blackie's case you don't need to.*You can tell just by lookin' at the ol' gal that she's lived a long life and is ready for retirement. With salt-n-pepper fur, and sad, tired eyes, Blackie is a sweet and gentle shephard/lab mix.*She needs a quiet home with compassionate caregivers who will make sure her golden years are free of stress or illness.*She has a slightly injured paw and needs some special attention. But what she'll give in return is beyond measure.

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.
