Pet of the week
Sunny is about two years old. Animal Control picked him up after some un-
known traumatic incident. He had a laceration to his back and some bruising on
his right shoulder. During his daily treatment to his wounds he never snapped,
but continuously kissed the shelter staff in the face as if he knew we were try-
ing to help him, He was a little timid at first but now he is a very happy boy.,
hence the name Sunny...he is a little ray of sunshine! Shelter hours are Tuesday-
Saturday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and by appointment on Sunday and Monday at (512)
