OF THE WEEK
MEET DIXIE
Dixie is quite notable around the
shelter! At first she was very shy but
warmed up quickly and now always greets
us with a smile and a tail wag! She enjoys
playtime with volunteers and loves to play
with toys! As you can tell, Dixie is extremely
photogenic and loves the camera! She is slightly over
a year old and would love to have an active home to grow up in as she has lots of
energy. She would do best in a home where she could be the center of attention
with no other pets or children. Being Pet of the Week, Dixie’s adoption fee is
waived for all qualified adopters! If you think Dixie would make a good fit for your
household, please come in and meet her! Dixie is ready to go home!
The Linda L. Kelley Animal Shelter is located at 5055 Hallowing Point Road in
Prince Frederick. We are open for adoptions Tuesday through Saturday. For more
information about this week’s Pet of the Week or any of
our other adoptable pets please check out our website
www.calvertcountyanimalshelter.com or give us a call at
