San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter Pets of the Week

Dog of the Week: Elliot

Elliot is a handsome 5-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier. He likes to spend his time cuddling with his human, playing with other dog buddies, and going on long walks. Elliot recently finished his heartworm treatment (YAY.), so he will need to take it easy and rest for a few more weeks. Although he would prefer to rest in the comfort of his new furever home. This smart boy is always ready to learn new tricks, and he’s potty trained. If you’re looking for a 55-pound cutie that will love you unconditionally, Elliot is your guy.

Cat of the Week: Jade

Jade, a stunning eightpound cutie with bright yellow eyes who enjoys roaming around the house looking for small places to take a nap in and finding the occasional hair tie to play with for a while, was adopted before publication.

Elliott is available for adoption at the San Marcos Regional Shelter. All ready-to-go pets (meaning cats and dogs that have already been spayed/ neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped) are $10 until further notice and include spay/neuter, vet exam, vaccinations, a microchip, and 30 days of free pet health insurance.
