All of us at I-92 WLWI love our pets, and know so many loving dogs and cats at the Humane Society of Elmore County would love to have their forever home with a loving family. That’s why we’re stepping up to create awareness with the Pet of the Week campaign.

Here’s our latest Pet of the Week! The shelter shares, “Sydney an 18 lb, male Terrier mix, not quite nine-years-old, black with distinguished gray features.  He was found as a stray but the owner never responded. Sydney is good with children and good with other dogs though can be a bit bossy at times and we think he is housetrained.  He WAS heartworm positive but completed his treatment earlier this month so is now ready to go. Like all dogs, he HAS to be kept on heartworm prevention without fail or he can get them all over again!”

UPDATE: Jackie has been adopted! See other available pets: click here

The adoption fees are $100 for dogs and $50 for cats under one-year-old; cats over one-year-old can be adopted by approved adopters for a fee of their choosing.  This adoption fee completely covers the mandatory spay or neuter, basic immunizations, de-worming, microchip, heartworm check for dogs, rabies vaccination if old enough, free health exam with your participating veterinarian.

If you are interested in meeting the Pet of the Week or any of the shelter’s pets, the first step is the Adoption Application you can do here:  https://elmorehumane.org/adoption-application-online-form2.html .  Once approved, they will coordinate with you to set up an appointment to meet & adopt.
