Meet Sheba

Sheba came to the shelter as a stray. Sheba is a small female mixed breed dog, who probably has some beagle in her make up. She is sweet as can be and loves to be with people and to be outside.

Sheba is approximatley 2-3 years old and approximately 40 pounds. She has a beautiful coat and an equally beautiful personality. Come see this special little girl and give her the opportunity to show you how sweet and loving she really is. Sheba desperately needs a forever home soon. Come give her a chance to show you that she will be your special friend forever.

If you are interested in adopting Sheba or one of the many other dogs or cats that are available for adoption at the shelter, please take the time to visit the Douglas County Animal Shelter located at 1755 County Services Road (off Cedar Mountain Road) this week, or view them on line.

Douglas County Animal Control maintains PetFinder listings on their website.

Or you can visit the Douglas County shelter pets in depth and with personal commentaries on individual animals by those who know them best. These photos are posted and profiled daily on volunteer pages at: Rainbow Connections on Facebook  Or our sister page at: Furbabies of DCAS on Facebook.

Pet listings on each of these pages are updated daily; therefore, some animals featured may be adopted prior to your visiting the shelter. Finding forever homes for these pets is the goal, so please consider giving another loving pet a home if the one you first saw has already been adopted. Come see these sweet dogs and cats and allow them to show you just how special they each can be once they are given a chance to be loved and have a home.

Adoption fees for dogs and cats at the shelter are $25 and there is a $10 micro chip fee. That means for $35 you have the opportunity to make a friend for life and the opportunity to give a homeless fur kid a forever home.

All dogs presently receive intake inoculations for kennel cough, parvo and distemper (cats receive distemper as part of a five way vaccination). All pets adopted from the shelter are required to have their rabies shots and be spayed or neutered within thirty days of adoption, unless they are kittens or puppies, Kittens and puppies are given extended time. The Douglas County Animal Shelter phone is: 770-942-5961. If the line is busy, please keep trying as there is often limited staff to answer calls. However, messages left will be returned as time permits.
