Tiger and Lab/chow mix pups ready for good homes
Published 12:00 am Tuesday, December 1, 2009
His name, “Tiger,” refers to his stripes and not his personality. He is nothing more than a big baby that loves attention.
Tiger is approximately 11 months old, current on his rabies vaccination and has even been neutered.
These two pups are from a litter of nine that was surrendered to the shelter because their owner was no longer able to care for them. They are a Lab/chow mix, approximately 7 weeks old. Come by the shelter to view the entire family.
The Rowan County Animal Shelter has several animals waiting to be adopted and taken to a good home.
From rescued animals to those abandoned by owners who couldn’t afford them, and all others in between, the Animal Shelter has them all.
Adoption fees are $70, a downpayment for spay/neuter costs. The voucher can be used at any veterinarian’s office.Before adopting any animal, a person must agree to take the pet to a veterinarian for an exam and spaying/neutering. If the animal isn’t already vaccinated for rabies, the person must agree to begin shots within three business days.
Rabies shots can be given as soon as the pet turns 4 months old.
The animal shelter isn’t equipped with a medical facility, and cannot administer any procedures or treatment.
A worker at the shelter will go over all information and gladly answer all questions from those adopting pets.
