Pup of the Week: Venus
614Now has partnered with the CHA Animal Shelter to put some focus each week on a cute pup up for adoption.
Quick note: the shelter wants to remind everyone about their $5 Feline Friday special. All cats and kittens have a $5 adoption fee every Friday through the winter.
Let’s take a look at Venus.
Venus is a large, athletic, fawn brindle Pit Bull mix. She is just shy of 2 1/2 years old. She has the cutest upright, triangular ears (think Yoda or an adorable alien). Venus loves her toys and playing out in the play yard. She really likes fetch and is learning to bring a ball back in exchange for throwing another. Venus is a very clever, motivated young dog. She would excel in a home where she could play training games and get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Venus has done well in play group with other dogs. She prefers calmer, well-mannered play partners and tends to be more focused on getting staff to play fetch with her than romping with other dogs. She also enjoys spending time in the volunteer coordinator’s office. She settles nicely on a mat and has been very polite and well-mannered. She does like to give kisses, right on the mouth….so watch out! (LOL) Venus will be a very rewarding, loyal companion for an active family.
Venus’ adoption fee is listed at $150. She is up-to-date on all of her shots, and has been spayed and micro-chipped. Adoption fees go right back into the shelter to help care for animals continuing to wait for their new homes.
