Clark Kent💙⬇️

It's Wednesday, so that means Country Pet Rescue is back at 8:40am with Scott and Sarah and Pay It Forward For Pets!

Meet Clark Kent ❤️! Look at that face! What a sweet, and concerned, boy.

Clark is a neutered male found on West Exchange Street, very close to the Krispy Kreme Doughnut shop. He’s estimated to be around 6-7 years of age and is a so-called “lemon” Coonhound. Meaning, he’s a light tan and white speckled boy - no black or dark brown as is normal coloring for a Coonhound. He came in with a blue canvass “Superman” collar on and appears to be well cared for and loved. If we can’t get Clark back to his previous home, might we be able to get him a new home? Don’t delay … schedule your meet and greet, today.

Life can be difficult, and very unfair, for domestic animals😔. The shelter offers no life for orphaned dogs and cats. Pets residing in a shelter are there through no fault of their own. After all, at some point, all dogs and cats once resided in the home of an owner. Pet ownership is a serious commitment. Dogs and cats are feeling beings with emotions and intellect. Handled casually, selfless pets become a casualty. Let’s change their fate … ADOPT, DON’T SHOP!
