Pet of the Week: River
Sweet River was found running stray here in Burbank with no identifying information, and because of this, the Burbank Animal Shelter does not know very much about her history. Staff here say that she is a very sweet and loving dog, and even knows a few basic commands already.
Pet of the Week: Coulson
Coulson is looking for someone who is not afraid to be loved...a lot. This sweet guy absolutely loves his people and does not like it when he is left alone, protesting when his people go away. A home with a big family, and where someone is home the majority of the day, is the ideal situation for Coulson as he does suffer from separation anxiety.
