Ginger

One sweet girl, that’s our Ginger! She is a 1-year-old, brown and cream Boxer–mix, with a gentle, calm and friendly disposition. This smart girl is attractive with a pretty face and trim and well-proportioned body. The Boxer breed is known for their desire for human affection, and Ginger is no exception. She needs a good forever home, one that will give her love, attention, affection and tender loving care. Stop in and meet Ginger; see what a truly nice dog she is. Ginger is available through Saturday at the shelter.

Louie

Good-looking, friendly, affectionate and calm are but a few words to describe this wonderful cat. Louie is a 2-year-old, male tabby with an amazingly beautiful shorthair coat of silver and dark pewter. White on his chin area and huge pale green eyes complete the picture of one handsome boy. This purring machine loves people and will make a wonderful pet in a variety of good forever home settings. Louie is a must see cat — pay him a visit.
