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.
