The Chattooga County Animal Shelter is hoping a local family will open its home to Ms. Betty, a brindle dog recently surrendered to the shelter and now available for adoption.

According to Friends of Chattooga County Animal Shelter, Ms. Betty has done well with other dogs and everyone she has met. Shelter supporters describe her as playful and loving, with a particular fondness for squeaky toys.

Ms. Betty is ready to trade her shelter kennel for a permanent home, and residents interested in adopting are encouraged to stop by and meet her.

The adoption fee is $25.

The Chattooga County Animal Shelter is located at 464 Red Oak Drive in Summerville. The shelter is open from 10 AM until 4 PM Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Wednesday visits are by appointment.

For additional information about Ms. Betty or other animals available for adoption, call the shelter at 706-857-0679.

Those who aren’t able to adopt can still help by sharing information about Ms. Betty and other shelter animals with friends and family.
