Story
Adorable Sorrel was born to her medium sized mom here at the shelter on 12/28/24. We think she is a terrier mix so she should be a medium sized dog when full grown. Her weight as of 3/11 was 6 pounds.Our adoption fee is $125 for small breed dogs under 20 pounds and $100 for all other dogs and cats unless otherwise noted in their bio. Every pet available for adoption is current on shots spayed/neutered, and microchipped. You may submit an application online for pre-approval and to set an appointment or you can visit the shelter Wednesday - Sunday from 11am - 5pm. Please note that the kennels close for pet viewing at 4:30pm.
