Hansel and Gretel are Looking for Home
Hansel and Gretel are quite the travelling pair! Remember the fairy tale where the two children were lost in the woods? Well, that's the tale (tail?!) of these two wanderers as well. Hansel and Gretel arrived as strays on 11/7/10. We know that they are smart, because they managed to survive on the streets. They arrived with dirty ears (they're clean now), and fleas and ticks galore (yuck - removed); they are up to date on their vaccinations and their monthly flea and tick preventative).
Gretel (here on left) is approximately 6 to 8 years old and she weighs in at 22.3 pounds. She had an ingrown nail that had become infected, so she's been on an antibiotic for 7 days - poor girl, each step must have been very painful. She also has some pendicular mammary growths; they will need to be removed and biopsied when she goes to her forever home as per our vet's examination.
Hansel (the male) is approximately 2 to 3 years old, and he weighs in at 23.4 pounds. When Gretel went for her walk, Hansel was fine with being left behind, as he had just returned from a walk himself - he was distracted by meeting all the various visitors coming by on Saturday morning!
Both dogs are friendly with long waggy tails. These two travellers need a loving home to call their own. They are sweet and cheerful, making the best of living in a shelter (they actually seem quite grateful for their comfy beds, fresh water, and consistent nutrition)! Do come and meet them today, they need and deserve a loving home environment.

Please pass this on to others. Hansel and Gretel need and deserve a good home. Come see them now!.
