Ninna Is the Best

Ninna has beautiful markings and a beautiful personality to go with them.

Ninna came to the shelter as a stray. She is a young mixed breed female dog who is full of life and a desire to be someone's best friend forever. Ninna has beautiful markings and a beautiful personality to go with them. She may have some Sheba Izu and Beagle mix in her make up.

Ninna is about two years old and approximately forty pounds. She has a short hair coat that is striking. She loves to go on walks and be outside with people where she can chase balls. Come see her this week at the shelter and allow her to win you over. This little girl needs a forever home.

If you are interested in adopting Ninna 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.

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.
