Ready for adoption

Here is the Dutchess County SPCA Pet of the Week — Ready for adoption. What are you waiting for?

This week's featured pet:
Emily — Lab mix
"Emily may be part lab, may be part Ridgeback and who knows what else. What we do know is that mixed breeds are usually the healthiest and most long-lived dogs and that shelter dogs make the best pets (Hello, White House!). Emily is a young female, very active and would do best in an active home."

The Dutchess County SPCA is located at 636 Violet Avenue, Hyde Park, NY 12538. The shelter is open Sunday, Monday, Friday and Saturday 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Closed Wednesdays. Call 845-452-SPCA (7722). Browse our adoptable animals today!
