Pet of the Week: Pretty Patches

Meet Patches, an adult female retriever and terrier mix available for adoption locally.

Here is what her friends at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue have to say about her:

Patches is an awesome little dog! She came in with some coat and skin issues, which are totally cleared up now. She will make a fabulous dog for a family with kids… she is friendly and smart as a whip.

She already knows to sit and plops her little butt right down for a treat. Knows “up” and loves toys.

And… she gives great hugs! She also quickly figured out where the cookie jar is kept — very clever girl. This great pup is a nice blend of friendly affection and normal puppy playfulness and will be great company.

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