Pet of the Week: Meet Ferris

Published 11:00 am Saturday, March 15, 2025

Meet Ferris.

How many ways can you say sweet, playful, goofball and fun? Ferris, the border collie/rat terrier blend. Sadly, Ferris’ came back to us through no fault of her own. Her life was not ideal, however, she has persevered, is doing amazing and embraces each day with a huge smile on her face. Funny, personality-plus, cute, adventurous and only wants to please.

She’s learning her commands, and brings lots of humor while learning them.

Ferris is good with other dogs, gets along with cats, and should be great with kids. Shy and a bit guarded when she meets new people (due to her previous life), she warms up quickly and the love and attention flows. A home with a fenced yard would be ideal for her, perfect for playtime, exploring and playing ball.

Did we mention she’s almost completely house-trained? Come meet this wonderful, loving gal, we promise she’ll bring a smile to your face.

You can go to hsnwga.org to apply for a dog or cat or to fill out an online application to volunteer.
