Amos is a 3-year-old Basset Hound. He’s very friendly, loves to be around people and is always ready to play! If you’re looking for a pet to add to your family, come meet this beautiful dog. He can howl pretty loudly, so he can’t go into an apartment-type environment. He needs a yard and kids to run around with. Please give this big guy a chance. He’ll steal your heart.
Amos and other pets are available for adoption from Operation Kindness, 3201 Earhart Drive, Carrollton. The no-kill shelter is open six days: Monday, 3-8 p.m.; closed Tuesday; Wednesday, 3-8 p.m.; Thursday, noon-8 p.m.; Friday, noon-5 p.m.; Saturday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.; and Sunday, noon-5 p.m. The cost is $110 for cats, $135 for kittens, $150 for dogs over 1 year, and $175 for puppies. The cost includes the spay/neuter surgery, microchipping, vaccinations, heartworm test for dogs, leukemia and FIV test for cats, and more. Those who adopt two pets at the same time receive a $20 discount.
