Cadbury Animal ID: 73258 Name: Cadbury Age: 6 months Sex: Spayed Female Species: Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd Color: Brown/Tan

March 7 - 13, 2014

Included in the adoption fee:

- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption) - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!

Cadbury is a sweet 6-month-old Australian Shepherd who has been stealing hearts here at the shelter for a few weeks now.

What's especially funny and cute about her is that she is unaware of her size and expects to be received on your lap as though she were still a puppy. And of course when she does it and you protest a little, Cadbury - armed with the softest little eyes - casts a look your way that says, "well how else am I going to show you what an awesome, loving dog I am?"

So you let her climb aboard and snuggle up. And you know what? It's all good.
