Shelby is a 7-year-old spayed beagle saved from a high kill shelter in North Carolina. Shelby was adopted in November. However, Shelby’s new “forever home” returned her to Another Chance because through no fault of her own, she has become blind. Shelby needs an angel ASAP.

Shelby certainly didn’t ask for this, but despite her limitations she is a doll. Shelby is learning her way around her foster mom’s home. Kelley of Waterboro is training her and working with voice commands. Shelby would make an excellent companion for a senior.

Her new home should have limited stairs and someone who is home most of the day. She is a cuddle bug and just wants to be loved. To meet this cutie, please call 676-5599 or 522-1197.

In addition to Shelby, the featured pet of the week, there are a number of teenage kittens and a large number of adult cats also looking for new, loving families; and some nice dogs have arrived from high kill shelters in the south that are looking for new happy lives with New England families.

To find a pet, check out adoptable pets at www.petfinder.com in the 03906 zip code.
