Shirley: The Story of Love, Loss and A New Beginning

A Dog's Life Rescue Pet of the Week...Shirley, the Cairn Terrier mix who has suffered a great loss.

A warm home, a devoted owner, and three playful feline pals - it was a perfect life for a sweet girl like Shirley.  But tragically, her world was turned upside down in February.  Shirley's person passed away suddenly and left her and her feline friends alone.

Now, Shirley urgently needs a new place to call home and a new person to be her best friend.  Though she's been through a lot in these past few weeks, this Cairn Terrier mix surprises everyone she meets with her enthusiasm and friendliness.  Shirley's great on a leash, extremely polite and very social.  She'd be an ideal companion for someone looking to take a dog to work everyday or for someone who works from home.

Shirley is ready for her next chapter.  Do you want to be a part of it?
