Pet of the Week: Shweet Sheldon

Meet Sheldon, a male Shepherd mix puppy available for adoption locally.

Here is what Sheldon has to say about himself:

My name is Sheldon, my siblings and I are 8 weeks old and weigh about 8lbs each.

The shelter staff has taught us all about furever homes and we would really like to find some furever homes of our very own. We are looking for homes where we would have a family who loves us and will take us on long walks or let us run around in the backyard.

Some toys, a soft bed to sleep on, and lots of belly rubs would also be much appreciated. My new owner will be asked to have their vet neuter me when I am a little older as it’s very important for helping to keep puppies like me off the street and out of shelters.

Are you and Sheldon a match? If so, let us know and our sponsor, Becky’s Pet Care, will send you some treats and prizes.
