Rowan
Rowan is a beautiful stray German Sheperd mix from the Gibson area. She is housebroke and knows some commands. She is a friendly girl and would make a great companion for the right family. The local shelters are continuing to experience an unusually high intake of strays and it is straining our budgets and our facilities. Please support your local shelters by adopting and donating. We know it is a difficult time for many people and we sympathize. It is the time of year to extend a helping hand to those in need and all creatures in distress. You can help True Friends by participating in our Santa Claus for Needy Paws raffle. Tickets are available and the drawing is Dec. 8th. The rewards are 1st - $1000, 2nd - $250 and 3rd $100.
