JACKSON, MI — The Jackson County Animal Shelter, 3770 Spring Arbor Road, has many pets available for adoption.
Here are two of them.
Rocky is a 4-year-old American Staffordshire mix who came in as a stray. Rocky is primarily black, but you will see some brown brindle striping throughout his coat.
He is a mild mannered guy with not a lot of barking or jumping. Rocky likes to go outside and enjoys walks on the leash.
Isabella is a 9-year-old, long haired solid black cat. She was surrendered by her owner who had a change in life circumstances.
Her owner had lots of nice things to say about Isabella. She is good with people and she lived with kids, other cats and dogs. Isabella is laid back, loves to lounge around and is a mellow girl. She loves being cuddled and is very affectionate.
Dog adoptions require an application, online. A meet-and-greet with a dog also is mandatory. A cat room walk-through is available to test reaction. The dog adoption fee is $150 for medium and large dogs and $250 for puppies and small dogs, which includes vaccinations, microchip and sterilization.
Cat adoption fees are $60 for one cat, $80 for two, which includes applicable tests, vaccinations and spay/neutering.
