Do some canine magic and take Pandora home for your loving pet

BOCA RATON — Special needs dog?  Who?  I hear there’s one here but….wait…me?  Nah.  I can run and play and be happy as a clam, so it can’t be ME.

I’m Pandora, a Lab/boxer mix, a four-month-old spayed female weighing 25 pounds.

They say I have a neurological problem with my hind end.  It sometimes fails to follow my front end and I get a little tangled up but I get going again right away, big smile still in place!

I love to run and my ‘disability’ lessens when I run fast and in a straight line, so that’s a lot of fun.  I’m active, playful and happy just like any pup should be.  I’d love some kids to live with and I can probably teach them a thing or two about not complaining or feeling sorry for yourself.

I like cats and other dogs, too.  Did I mention I’m just darn adorable, too?  Please ask to meet me.  I need a loving home so I can love RIGHT BACK AT YOU!

I’m available for adoption at Tri-County Humane Society, a no-kill animal shelter located at 21287 Boca Rio Road in Boca Raton. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.  Adoption fees for companion animals are $110 and up.

Animals are heartworm-tested and up-to-date on vaccinations.

Included in the adoption fee is one year of free office visits to
Regency Veterinary Clinic.
