Pet of the week • 10-21-22
Meet Minerva, a 4-year-old shepherd mix who weighs 55 pounds and has a regal, light brown coat of fur. She loves treats, toys and snuggling up with a trusted friend.
She was found as a stray wandering the streets of Ennis alone, so not too much is known about her earliest days. Minerva needed a little bit of medical TLC upon arrival and is still being treated for heartworms so she is on exercise restrictions but is otherwise a healthy gal.
She is currently in foster care, so making an appointment in advance is necessary to meet with her in person. Adult dogs and cats are normally a $75 adoption fee from the SPCA of Texas.
Puppies and kittens under the age of six months are $150. Adoption fees vary for small mammals, equestrian and livestock. Fee includes spay/neuter surgery, age-appropriate vaccinations, a heartworm test for dogs six months and older and a FIV/FeLV test for cats four months and older, initial flea/tick preventative and heartworm preventative, a microchip, 30 days of PetHealth Insurance provided by PetHealth, a free 14-day wellness exam with VCA Animal Hospitals, a rabies tag and a free leash.
