Colby's Story

Calling all scruffy terrier mix lovers! This sweet guy is 4-year-old Colby! He was surrendered to the Franklin Township Animal Shelter by his owners who claimed he tried to set their house on fire. We don’t know the whole story, but so far, Colby has been on his best behavior at the shelter! He loves attention from people and would benefit from having someone around the majority of his day. He appears to have some separation anxiety so if you work from home, Colby would love that! He’d do great in a home with older kids and possibly another dog, but would have to meet them prior to adoption. Colby needs a little TLC and grooming because underneath that scruffy exterior lurks a very handsome pup! Here’s your open invitation to meet Colby at the shelter T-F 12-3 and Sat 12-6. All it takes to bring him home is an $80 adoption fee and an approved application!
