Fuzzy Friday in Torrington

It is Chief Johnson’s turn to do Fuzzy Friday this week, and he is happy to introduce his new friend “Mona” a seven-month-old Shephard Mix.

Mona is a sweeeet girl who wants to be friends with everyone she meets. She is also a playful ham who loves to have fun and be the center of attention. Her unique combination of friendly and playful is sure to bring a smile to your face.

Mona is a relatively small dog and she would be well-suited for an indoor or indoor/outdoor home.

If you would like to meet Mona, please call the Waggin Tails Shelter at 307-532-5373 or stop by at 980 E 11th Ave, Torrington, WY 82240.

Have a great looooong weekend Torrington!
