use Pedigree Dog Food and always accept donations. Simply drop off a bag
or two at the Shelter and we'll make sure the boys and girls staying at

PET
OF THE WEEK
Lexy
Female
Spayed

Hello! My name is Lexy and Im a Husky mix. I have one blue eye and one brown eye and a few freckles on my nose so Im pretty cool looking! Im on the small side for being a Husky mix, maybe only 35-40 pounds. I just got fixed last week so I am ready and more than willing to find a real home and leave the shelter.
The people here tell me Im a very good girl, I always sit before going in and out of doors, will wait like a polite lady but once outside I am very playful (that shows my self-discipline). I love to run and chase balls and would be great with an active family as I really am not ready to be a couch potato just yet.
I came in with quills and my sister Maxine was skunked, what a lost pair we were. My quills were removed and Maxine received several baths and we cant hardly remember those days gone past. My sister Maxine sometimes gets on my nerves, she wants to play way too much or maybe its the way she plays, always jumping on my back and that really irritates me. I will play with just about anyone here, and if I have to I will play with Maxine but you know how little sisters can sometimes be a pain.
I am very smart and catch on to things pretty quickly, I do know some things already but can learn much more if someone special took the time to teach me. They try to teach us things here but there isnt much extra time and then you have Maxine interfering and who can concentrate with some wiry little black dog jumping on your back! Really! Anyway, I would really like to spend the rest of the summer spending time with my new family you just need to come get me! I will be waiting at the shelter or you can call if you have questions about me 989-785-3738. Oh, I have all my shots and micro-chipped too!

DONATE
A KURANDA DOG BED
TO
THE SHELTER

Kuranda beds are sturdy and
long lasting, so you will be providing a lasting gift for a dog today and
another tomorrow.
They can make a big difference
for even one dog who, for the most part spends 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week on a concrete floor.
Donations are offered at
a special discounted price and shipped directly to the Elk Country Animal
Shelter.
Donate a bed in your name,
or send one as a gift in the name of a friend or family member. We
will mail a personalized Gift Card acknowlegement directly to them from
you. |
