Paws to Consider Your Pets of the Week, Oct. 4

Take a moment and paws to consider these two adorable pets. Meet Patches and Nike, this weeks Cumming Patch pets

Patches is a 5-year-old female Calico who loves affection. She was pulled from animal control just in the nick of time, and is very thankful for her new lease on life. This fabulous feline is wonderful with other pets and with children and enjoys being held and petted as long as you are willing.

Nike is a 2-year-old Great Pyrenees mix. He is a big boy and wants only to be your lap dog. This gentle giant is great on a leash--but would love to have a large enclosed yard he can run in. He is good with other dogs and children. Great Pyrenees are great protectors and very loyal.

Come by the shelter at 4440 Keith Bridge Road or call 770-887-6480 to arrange for a meet and greet with Patches and Nike.
