Pet of The Week

This is “Pearl”, she is a very unique and fine animal. She has been at the shelter for a very long time and does not like the kennel arrangements. Pearl is an adult female Jack Russell. She would make a great companion for a mature person with or without mature children. Pearl does not like to be picked on by small children. She does not bite but gives warning nips. Jack Russells are very energetic dogs and like to hunt, they do not do well in homes with cats. The Cortez Animal Shelter is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and closed every other Friday for intensive cleaning. For more information, call the Cortez Animal Shelter at 565-4910.
