All of us at I-92 WLWI love our pets, and know so many loving dogs and cats at the Humane Society of Elmore County would love to have their forever home with a loving family. That’s why we’re stepping up to create awareness with the Pet of the Week campaign.
Here’s our latest Pet of the Week! The shelter shares, “Doughy is a two-year old male that looks like he could be a Pit/Akita but certainly could be other mixes. He is 65 lbs, found as a stray and brought to us, never reclaimed. He is an absolute sweetheart, shy at first but then a huge love bug and wants nothing but attention. He knows sit and down and has pretty good recall. Will play fetch but also easily distracted and LOVES car rides. He seems great with other dogs, actually scared of cats. Doughy came to us heartworm positive and completed his treatment last week – just one of so many we have to treat because of not being on heartworm prevention.”
UPDATE: Jackie has been adopted! See other available pets: click here
The adoption fees are $100 for dogs and $50 for cats under one-year-old; cats over one-year-old can be adopted by approved adopters for a fee of their choosing. This adoption fee completely covers the mandatory spay or neuter, basic immunizations, de-worming, microchip, heartworm check for dogs, rabies vaccination if old enough, free health exam with your participating veterinarian.
If you are interested in meeting the Pet of the Week or any of the shelter’s pets, the first step is the Adoption Application you can do here: https://elmorehumane.org/adoption-application-online-form2.html . Once approved, they will coordinate with you to set up an appointment to meet & adopt.
