Dog of the Week Miss Betty came to Gosford Dog Paws as a stray with no microchip. While she’s a little afraid of loud noises and raised voises, Miss Betty is a total sweetheart who is very affectionate and loves attention. As she’s still young and energetic, this girl would love a family who will walk her every day. Miss Betty is $350 to adopt which includes; vet check, desexing, microchipping, registration, vaccination, flea control, heartworm and worming treatment. The Gosford City Animal Shelter is at Pateman Road, Erina and is managed and operated by Gosford Dog Paws. www.gosforddogpaws.com
