ALFIE: About 5-6 months old, Alfie is a small Schnauzer mix with long legs, but you’d think he believes he’s a Portuguese Water Dog! We’ve had lots of dogs that get their front feet in the water bucket but Alfie’s a first for all four. Obviously, he LOVES water, but he also loves all people and every dog he’s ever met. This little guy is a winner!

BAGEL: Bagel is a beagle mix about 5 years old, the traditional and lovely black and rust with white feet and a distinctive white tipped tail. Like all scent hounds, he will follow that smell until he finds it, whether it be next door or in the next county so he needs a securely fenced yard so that nose won’t take him too far. He also needs a playful, active family as he’s a happy guy who loves attention.

SCARLET: Scarlett is a mix of who-knows-what but isn’t she a great looking girl? A little over 6 months old, she’s still a puppy but we think she’s going to keep a lot of those playful puppy ways about her as she REALLY likes to play. Beautifully marked, she’s one cool dog.

Come see her, Aflie, Bagel, and all the other animals at the Port Lavaca Animal Shelter, 201 Stringham Drive (across from the rodeo arena), Monday through Saturday, 10 to 2, or call the Calhoun County Humane Society, 553-8916. You can also view her and other animals ready for adoption on line at:
