Sergeant Pepper is a staff favorite, this adorable boy is a LOT of fun in a little package! He loves to play with toys--he adores stuffies in particular--and has quite the growing collection in his kennel! He likes to get his zoomies on, is a total snuggle bug, and is looking for a quiet, routine home where he can be your only pet and monopolize all of your attention.

If you're interested in giving Sergeant Pepper a home for the holidays, please visit hswestmi.org/adoptabledogs.html.

They will support the adoption costs of all of the pets in the HSWM care so that cats and dogs will be only be $25 to adopt, small animals will only be $5 to adopt, and as always, senior pets are fee-waived!
