Pet of the Week: Maybelle (Local News ~ 07/07/20)
This week’s pet of the week is our sweet old matron, Maybelle. Maybelle came to Good Shepherd in May and she looked rough. Her body showed that she had likely been used for breeding and she had injuries on her neck from being chained up. Even after being treated so badly, she has turned out to be a real sweet lovebug. Maybelle deserves to get out of the kennel and into your life so she can have her much deserved happily ever after. You can visit Maybelle any day from noon to 5 p.m. at the Good Shepherd Humane Society Adoption Center at 6486 Highway 62. Reservations are encouraged. For more information, call 479-253-9188. -
