Adopt-a-Pet: Max and Ginger

Max

Max is a super sweet two-year-old Lab in search of a “fur”ever home. His caretakers say he is the most loyal guy who loves to play when he’s not busy cuddling and loving humans. He likes long walks and would be great for a family with children ages 10 and older. Max is neutered and ready to go to his “fur”ever home. His intake number is 371587. Reference picture: Max.

Ginger is a two-year-old kitty with a bobbed tail. Her caretakers say she is a bit shy but once you gain her trust she is sweet and loving. Ginger needs to be spayed before going to her “fur”ever home. Her intake number is 425239. Reference picture: Ginger.

All dog and cat adoption fees include a microchip, basic shelter vaccines (excluding rabies) and a free veterinarian check-up. All cats/kittens, pit bulls and Chihuahua adoptions are just $5 (spay/neuter fees, if applicable, are additional).
