ADOPT A PET

This chunky ball of fluff is Olenna, and she is waiting at the shelter for her new forever family. She is about 4 years old and is an Australian shepherd mix. When Olenna arrived at the shelter, she was heartworm positive, which has since been treated, and she is now ready to go home. This sweet girl is housebroken and loves the company of people. She would prefer to be the only dog in the household, but she could live with another aloof pup. Olenna is available at the Edmond Animal Welfare Shelter, 2424 Old Timbers Drive. Call 216-7615.

Hamish is an orange tabby with a striking tabby pattern. He is a little timid at first and needs a family to adopt him that will give him the time he needs to come out of his shell. This handsome chap enjoys being petted once he gets to know you and would make someone a wonderful companion. Hamish is available at the Edmond Animal Welfare Shelter, 2424 Old Timbers Drive. Call 216-7615.
