A rose by any other name would be: a beautiful pointer!
Rose is a very aptly named dog: she is absolutely drop-dead gorgeous. This affectionate spayed five year old beauty is a pure-bred German shorthaired pointer, or “GSP” as their admirers say. She is trim and athletic and loves to go and do- she would be a wonderful addition to an active family or a steadfast companion for a busy single person.
She walks well on a leash, and gets along well with most dogs, so she probably would be a good companion for another active dog, as well.
Rose is not a “couch potato” dog and would not be happy being confined in a small space or in an environment where she could not get adequate exercise. True to her breed, she is not “hyper”, but has a good energy level, and is attentive, learns quickly, and is eager to please.
If Rose sounds like the ideal dog for you or your family, come and meet her. This pretty flower is very anxious to be planted in someone’s heart and home!!
The kittens will be arriving soon- “foster parents” needed
]Spring is here, and soon also will be the kittens. Often we get in tiny kittens that have lost their mama but are not yet weaned. We very much need “foster parents” for these tiny tabbies that must be bottle-fed and carefully nurtured to survive. This can be a wonderful and rewarding experience that can be very life-enriching for people who have the time and dedication to help- ideal for “empty nesters”. We provide all necessary equipment, instructions, and technical and emotional support. If you are interested, please call the shelter at 642-1180 and talk to Diana, our shelter manager. We will soon have babies that need you!!
Shelter wish list
We would be very grateful to receive donations of good used heating pads to help keep baby kittens warm. Also, donations of Purina Kitten Chow would be most appreciated. Thank you for your support.
