If you invite someone into your space for those unfinished or annoying things you now spend too much time looking at, try to choose someone who will add to your comfort, offer solid skills and bring in some humor and compassion.

Pet of the Week

OZZY ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY

Ozzy is a perky 2-year old mixed breed who was surrendered because his owner didn’t have enough time for him.

He is a Heinz-57 mixed breed and is smart and playful. He would be best for teens and older due to his exuberant energy. This cute boy should be the only pet in the household. He’s a great size, only about 45 pounds, maximum. We hope someone adopts this joyful dog soon!
