Velvette / 59848052's Story

Hello!! I'm a sweet girl that was found out by Eight Mile Creek Reservoir near Elko and was brought to the Elko Animal Shelter for safekeeping. I was looking for my owners, but I have been here well past my stray hold. Sooo, I need a new home to call my own. I am very unsure of men. I don't show well inside my kennel, so if you want to meet me, it would be best to do so outside in the yard. I do well with other dogs whose temperament matches mine. I love running around, playing with toys, or lounging about relaxing. If you're interested in meeting me, come down to the shelter and see me. Or call them at 775-777-7333!

If you are interested in adopting an animal from our shelter you will need to fill out an adoption application prior to adopting. Please just call or email the shelter and we will be happy to email or fax one to you. The adoption fee for a dog or puppy is $85.00 and includes the animal being spayed/neutered, a rabies vaccination, and a microchip. The adoption fee for a cat or kitten is $65.00 and includes the spay/neuter, a rabies vaccination, and a microchip. All incoming dogs under the age of 2 are given Parvo/Distemper and Bordetella vaccinations. All cats receive a feline distemper/feline rhinotracheitis (respiratory) vaccination.

These yards are also used by potential adopters to meet, socialize, and get to know a dog prior to adopting.
