Did you know you could adopt a “Bear” from the DeKalb Animal Shelter?
No need to get excited because this “Bear” is not really a bear, he is a dog. “Bear” is only his name but he is available for adoption as the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”
“Bear has been with us since last summer, so we are trying to find him a good home. He is a Boxer/American Bulldog mix. Bear is super sweet and up to date on everything and has been neutered. Bear is good with other dogs but we are not sure about cats. All in all he is really good natured with a good demeanor. He loves to go for walks and play with toys. Bear is one of our sponsored pets so his adoption fee has been reduced to $80,” said shelter director Emmaly Bennett.
“If you are interested in adopting Bear please check out the adoptable pet’s link on our website at https://www.dekalbanimalsheltertn.com/to fill out an application and see his picture and we will call you to come in and meet him. Please give us a call so we can find Bear a good home,” said Bennett.
The shelter is open Monday-Friday from 8 to 4 and Saturday from 8 to 12 at 186 Transfer Station Road. Phone 615-597-3647.
