“Casey James” needs a home where he can roam and burn off some energy.

This loveable eight month old pit bull mix is the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”.

“He is such a good boy and full of energy but once he calms down he just wants to be in your lap and be held. Casey James is great with other dogs and cats and loves to play. This boy is very special. He  also loves children. If you want to meet Casey James fill out an adoption application on our website at https://www.dekalbanimalshelter.com/ and we will call you to set up an appointment to come see him,” said shelter employee Emmaly Bennett.

Does your dog or cat need to be microchipped? The DeKalb Animal Shelter is hosting a free microchip clinic at the shelter today (Saturday, May 22) from 10 a.m. until noon in partnership with a microchipping company.

Fifty free microchips will be provided to residents of DeKalb County. Registration forms are available. There is no charge to register or for yearly registration updates. The goal is to eventually microchip all pets or as many as possible.

“Its first come first served. No appointments are required. Just drive in and line up. We will give you information to fill out. Please visit our facebook page before you come and under the events tab you will see all the information and criteria including for parking and safety,”said Bennett.
