Jack Frost may have blown into town, but he is definitely not nipping at anyone's nose. This guy is quite the gentleman. It's not a surprise to anyone that he is a chill kinda fella. He is cuddled up in the B1 igloo at HSWC snowball factory. Since production has been low he's had some extra time on his paws to hang out with the staff and volunteers. They are quite impressed with his calm demeanor. He doesn't seem phased by cats or dogs along the slopes. He lays on his bed like he is on a warm beach, relaxing in the sunshine. He doesn't seem to mind the noisy kennel. Just goes on about his own business trying to improve sales at the factory. He is an easy walk, looks deep into your eyes like he has lots of wisdom to share. He might be more of a Romeo than a Jack Frost! We can't wait to see this young fella open up once he glides into his furever home. We know his personality will warm up once he knows he has a committed family by his side. Until then , he may seem a bit icy or aloof, but he is waiting for that special person to melt his heart! Maybe that is you? We promise he is a warm and cozy kinda friend to have! Come and give Jack Frost some of you time he won't disappoint you! Primary Color: Blue Secondary Color: White Weight: 52.4 Age: 2yrs 0mths 1wks

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Wicomico County was started in 1968 by a group of people who wanted to help improve the lives of animals. We have come a long way in our 40+ years! We have a staff dedicated to making sure the animals that come to our doors are loved and protected as they wait for their forever home. Not only are our animals vaccinated, wormed and given flea preventative, we can treat animals that come to us with mange, ringworm, heartworm and pay for animals to be seen by an outside vet should there be a need. We have an on-site spay/neuter clinic that not only is used for our animals but we also offer low cost spay/neuter for animals of the public. We provide emergency boarding for victims of domestic abuse, fire, and medical emergencies. We also have the capability to set up an off-site emergency shelter for people evacuated from their homes. In addition, we have an education program to help teach kids about being a responsible pet guardian. We work with a wide range of rescue groups and our animals have been transported from our mid-Atlantic area throughout the North Eastern United States. Our shelter is an open admission shelter and we will take in approximately 3500 animals this year. We do what we do because of our love for animals and our desire to make a difference in their lives every single day.
