Our next Pet of the Week is calm, loving and affectionate. Meet Lassie, a 60 lb. cutie pie who has a kissable face, and would be perfectly content with a fluffy dog bed, a house to wander around in, and a human to look up to. This-four-year-old gal is shy initially, but once she knows she is safe, she warms up quickly. Lassie shares her kennel with an energetic pup who loves to shower her with kisses, but Lassie is very tolerant, doesn't mind the kisses and lets her friend bounce around happily. If you have a dog at home, we'd be happy to introduce them to Lassie.

Come meet Crosby and Lassie and receive a fee-waived adoption, including their spay/neuter, microchip and vaccines! To meet them, simply drop by 845 Camp Road in Decatur, email adoption@dekalbanimalservices.com or call (404) 294-2165.
