Marie is ERAS ‘Pet of the Week’

April 29, 2019 By Dick Cook and Contributed Article 0 Comments

Marie, East Ridge Animal Service’s “Pet of the Week, has been at the animal shelter for several months and is looking for a permanent home. To be exact, Marie has called the shelter home for 103 days and is ready for her forever home.

Marie is a spayed female and up-to-date on her vaccinations. She tips the scales at 35 pounds and is currently taking heartworm medication. However, that hasn’t slowed her down.

She is around 3 to 4 years old and loves to play and go on walks. Our volunteers say that Marie walks great on a leash! Marie is a sweet girl but doesn’t get along with cats.

Please come to the shelter and meet Marie. The staff asks that if you have another dog bring it by as well so they can have a meet and greet with Marie.

For this week Marie’s adoption fee will be waived, so don’t miss out on a wonderful dog!
