He is very friendly and playful and loves attention. He knows a few commands and is totally house broken. Otis is a very sweet yet strong dog that would do well with an active family. He gets along well with other dogs at the shelter. He has been with them quite a while, and they would love to find him the loving home he so rightly deserves. Please stop by the shelter to meet him.
Garfield is a handsome, adult, male orange tabby who was recently picked up as a stray wandering around an apartment complex in Cornelius. The residents felt that his owner had moved away and just left him behind. He has a long silky coat and big green eyes. He has already been declawed and neutered, and he is available for adoption immediately. He is a little shy, but would probably quickly warm up if he could find a new loving home. Please stop by the shelter to meet this lonesome boy.
