For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
This Rita is fast as a cheetah! Before you can look, she's taken off, spun around five times, run up and down the ramp three times -- and then sits in front of you like a champ. Seriously, she is an agility star in the making!
Rita came to the shelter from a bit of a rough place, but this gal has not let this get her down. From day one, she was ready to go, be active, have fun -- with her new-found friends of staff and shelter volunteers. She is an agile little thing for whom movement is the essence of life! She'd love to find an active person or family who shares this interest.
Rita also knows some basic manners and is studying daily to expand her portfolio of skills. "With yummy treats, no behavior is too hard to master," she said when we interviewed her about her training experiences.
If an active lifestyle and continuing education are among your interests, this gal is a good match for you!
