Farah is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

Get a long little doggie.

(RCHS - Mark Viguri)

Farah is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 1-year-old, 29-pound, female, Dachshund mix.

Farah was at a shelter in Sonora, Mexico before she was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through the Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS) program.

She needs a calm home and a family that will give her time to settle in. Farah will need confidence building with plenty of positive reinforcement. You can never remind her too often that she’s a “Good Girl!”

The $145 adoption fee for Farah includes medical exam, spay, up to date vaccinations, registered microchip, and a one-year license if her new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society’s Department of Animal Services.

For information about adoption or to become a Virtual Foster visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas, call 760-753-6413, or log on to www.SDpets.org. RCHS is open 11 to 2 Friday through Monday, and Wednesday and Thursday by appointment.
