Pet of the Week: Meet Sierra from the SPCA

    ORDER REPRINT →

June 14, 2014 12:00 AM

Meet Sierra. She’s got the energy of a lifelong friend with the maturity of a great companion. And she’s looking for a home. Sierra is 10 years old, so you might think she’s too old to keep up with you. Not true. Her Jack Russell terrier breed is known for its energetic tendencies, but her age balances her out nicely.

She’s always ready for a walk, great on a leash, affectionate enough to come sit with you and is house trained. Sierra gets along well with other friendly dogs and cats. She is used to living inside with a family. It’s our goal to find this sweet dog a home. Come visit her at the Sacramento SPCA, 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday, 6201 Florin Perkins Road or www.www.sspca.org.

SPCA pet of the week: Zu

Meet Zu, an adorable, chocolate-colored sweetheart who is still getting used to shelter life. She may take a moment or two to warm up – when she does, you’ll see some gentle tail wags, a full-body wiggle and she may lean in for a snuggle. She takes treats with the most gentle mouth and is attentive to people. Zu would love a home with patient humans who are interested in spending the time to socialize her and build her confidence, as she has spent her most of her previous life as a backyard-only dog. She will repay your kindness tenfold with love. Zu has lived with dogs in her previous home.

Name: Zu
