This beautiful 7-8 year old Husky Mix is the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”.

“Tia was in a household with other dogs but unfortunately her owner passed away. She is house trained and does well with other dogs. Tia can be a little female dominant but she is a super sweet girl and has great leash manners. Tia is just a great all around dog especially if you are looking for one a little older and out of that puppy stage. Come meet Tia. She might just be a good fit for you,” said Shelter Director Megan Moore.

The shelter, located on Transfer Station Road behind Tenneco Automotive off Highway 70 east in Smithville, has been in operation since November, 2017 under the DeKalb Animal Coalition, a 501 c 3 non profit organization.

Stop by the animal shelter, call 615-597-3647 (DOGS), or visit facebook. The shelter is currently open on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 12-4 p.m. and Saturday from 10 to 12 noon. Closed Wednesday.
