Shep is a 7-year-old male.

Meet Shep: He has been at the shelter for quite a while. He has been in two different fosters and has done well in both. He is back with shelter staff and we are hoping to find him a permanent home ASAP. He came with some prior injuries that have caused his back end to become severely arthritic. He has no teeth, but this does not stop him from loving food or people and all the loves he can get! This snuggle bug deserves a loving consistent home. Please open your heart and give this guy a second chance.

To adopt a pet, call or stop by the animal shelter across from the Public Works Department off the Sterling Highway. The shelter is open from noon-7 p.m. Tuesday, noon-5 p.m. Wednesday-Friday, and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday-Sunday. Closed Mondays. For more information, call 235-3141.
