Hello, I’m Suzie! I may be a senior, but don’t let that fool you. I’m as spry as ever. I’m both sweet and gentle. I enjoy soft beds and treats! How I love the taste of a good biscuit. I may not be the youngest pup around, but I’ve got a heart full of love to give. I’m looking for a family who appreciates the calm and wisdom of a mature dog. I have gotten along with some dogs in the past, but I would prefer to be an only dog. I promise to fill your home with love. Adopt me, and let’s make beautiful memories together.

 Meet Shantel! She’s an adorable tabby who will never turn down any treats offered to her! Shantel is super sweet and loves to give gentle headbutts when she says hello. She is FIV+, but kept indoors, attending her regular vet visits, and being kept up to date medically, she can live a long, healthy life! When she’s not watching all the activity around her, she finds a nice comfy spot, and settles in for a cat nap. If Shantel sounds like the cat for you, come by and visit her at the shelter!
