Pet of the Week

This is Rosie, she is a very sweet 9-month-old Red Heeler. She is very active, enjoys being outside and going on long walks. She would make a great companion for someone that knows the tendencies of the Heeler breed. Would not recommend a home with small children as she does like to give love nips. She is not a mean dog by any means but is young and needs to learn her boundaries when being around youngsters. She is not a very big dog and is the perfect size. The shelter is open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and on alternate Fridays; they will be open this Friday. The fee for adoption includes spaying or neutering, vaccination, microchip and health exam. The shelter could use donations of cleaning supplies such as paper towels, Lysol and unscented bleach. For more information, call the shelter at 565-4910. To view more animals, visit www.petango.com (enter 81321 zip code for each) or www.cityofcortez.com/government/animal_shelter.
