Meet Shack aka Shaq: at the shelter
Ready for a companion who thinks only of YOU, and one whose biggest desire is to be a bestie, to give love, and to feel appreciated in return? We figure someone suited to a devoted companion is waiting for him, and doesn’t know where he is! So here’s the well kept secret. Finally revealed: Shack is waiting at the Campbell County animal, shelter, taking his sweet time shopping for a new family, but hopes he can get a good deal very soon. He is a couple years old, house trained, absolutely yummy with other dogs, and a mush in the house. He kept secret the fact that he has had someone train him carefully and teach him good manners. What a shock it was to see him sit on one hip like a little old man, then offer a paw, then lay down when asked, and even roll over on his back. These are all signs of a well adjusted, well trained, deeply loved family pet. Wouldn’t it be fun to know how he ended up at the shelter as a stray instead of being at someone’s house being loved? Maybe we can make up for it, and get him home as quickly as we can. You have to see him to believe him. He is that perfect! Apply to adopt by going to our website at www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org. Hey there, I'm Shack! I'm always up for a friendly game. I'm full of energy, ready to explore every nook and cranny of the world with you. New smells, sights, and adventures? Count me in! Walks are my absolute favorite, the longer the better. I'll be your loyal companion on every journey, whether it's a trip to the park or a hike in the mountains. So, why adopt me? Well, I promise to bring laughter, love, and a sense of adventure to your life. Let's make some memories together! I'm not a crazy kid any longer, but am old enough to enjoy my studies and get into some fun training with you. I also LOVE children, and think other dogs are pretty cool. Ready to adopt me?
