Manchester Animal Control Pets of the Week: August 6, 2012

Meet Josie, an American Bulldog mix that just so happened to find herself at the pound. We are hoping we can be the bridge to her finding a better life. She appears to have had puppies in the past and did not come to us in the best condition. This however has not squashed her zest for life, as she loves to play with toys, sticks, or anything you are willing to throw for her! Josie does still need some training as she can get very excited and happy when meeting new people, but considering all she wants to do is please, this shouldn't be hard! Training can be an excellent bonding time for a new dog and their owner too! We are just hoping someone will grant Josie the new beginning she deserves. 

Meet Sherman, a very sweet boy and a real lady's man! Sherman wins them over with his charm, and funny personality. Sherman can be fearful of men that he dosen't know and trust, but he's a smooth talker when it comes to the girls in his life. All Sherman wants is a lap to sit in! After about one week in the pound we noticed that he will sometimes limp, after a vet check the doctors couldn't find anything major wrong with him, they have told us he may have some arthritis, but it dosen't stop him from zooming around the kennel like a mad man! 

If you think you can provide the excellent forever homes either of these two dogs deserves, please contact Manchester Animal Control at 860-645-5516 to set up an appointment to meet the pups in person. The office is open 7 days a week, but to be sure a human is in the office please call first!
