Pet of the Week – Zayne
SUMMARY: Summer is an ideal time to adopt a dog or cat and provide them a forever home. Chris Menard, a volunteer at Tupelo-Lee Humane Society, introduces Zane, a dog who's been in foster care since March. Zane is housebroken, gets along with other dogs, and loves people. However, he has a mutual disinterest with cats. Zane is healthy, groomed, and free of heartworms, showcasing the positive impact of fostering. The shelter encourages fostering and invites people to meet Zane. They appreciate community support and offer to arrange a meet and greet with Zane's foster family.
Zayne is WTVA's Pet of the Week for July 5, 2024.
