Dogs as loveable and fun loving as “Willard” need a home!

Why not welcome “Willard” into your home.

“Willard is the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”

“Willard is our two-year-old Pitty Mix. He is super sweet and full of energy. He has been neutered and is up to date on his vaccinations. Willard has been micro-chipped and is ready to go. We don’t know yet how Willard does with other dogs so if you have other dogs and are interested in adopting him we ask that you set up a meeting with us. Bring in your dog and we will have a formal meet and greet. Willard is a really good boy and a really sweet dog,” said Shelter Director Emmaly Bennett.

“Visit our website at https://www.dekalbanimalsheltertn.com/ to see Willard’s picture, fill out an adoption application and we will call you to come in and meet him,” said Bennett.

The shelter is open Monday-Friday from 8 to 4 and Saturday from 8 to 12 at 186 Transfer Station Road.
