Notes from Emmet County Animal Shelter

***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org***

This cutie patootie is Shelby! She and her stout brother (clearly not biological!) Scooby love each other and have so much fun playing together that we are looking for a new forever home that is ready and capable of welcoming them both! Scooby is about 5 years old, very outgoing and energetic. Seems to love everyone and everything but can be a bit of an escape artist (he's naughty like that!) so a fenced yard is best! But the cool thing is that Shelby adores being outside a lot so a fenced yard for her to run and play and then lounge and sunbathe would be ideal indeed! Shelby is about 15 months and a sweet super silly girl that loves people, other dogs and cats. They will be a fantastic duo for the right home. Their mom loved them very much so we are doing our best to get them a wonderful home where they can be happy, safe and loved. Both dogs are fixed, vaccinated and microchipped. Please keep in mind that Shelby will need to have a regular grooming routine. Their combined adoption fee is $500.00
