JACKSON, MI — The Jackson County Animal Shelter, 3770 Spring Arbor Road, has many pets available for adoption.
Here are two of them.
Titan is a 9-month-old male Akita mix pup. He has a big, fluffy hair coat which is perfect for potty breaks in this cold Michigan weather.
Titan likes most other dogs and gets along with cats. He is house trained and is not a barker. Initially, Titan will be shy and reserved when you meet him, but after he knows you he is an affectionate tail wagger.
Akitas thrive on human companionship. Bred to be family protectors, they are also Japanese symbols of good health, happiness and a long life.
Smudge is a 10-year-old male brown tabby cat that was surrendered by his owner due to housing issues.
He lived with other cats and seems to be an easy-going guy. He is a larger cat and enjoys receiving kitty snacks.
Smudge is very affectionate, calm and inquisitive. You will love his big green eyes and cute little pink nose.
Dog adoptions require an application, online. A meet-and-greet with a dog also is mandatory. A cat room walk-through is available to test reaction. The dog adoption fee is $150 for medium and large dogs and $250 for puppies and small dogs, which includes vaccinations, microchip and sterilization.
Cat adoption fees are $60 for one cat, $80 for two, which includes applicable tests, vaccinations and spay/neutering.
