Meet Our Pet of the Week: Sassy Little Sassafras

"Sassafras” is the pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 2 year old, 40 pound, spayed, female, Staffordshire Terrier mix.  

Sassy is a big “squish” according to the care providers in Rancho Coastal Humane Society’s kennels. She can never get close enough to you. When the volunteers sit in her kennel, Sassafras sits on their laps. When they lean over, Sassy gives them kisses. If she could figure out a way to do it, she would climb inside your skin with you to be closer.

One more thing about Sassy. She’s a beautiful girl with white fur, a pink nose, and golden eyes.

Sassafras was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from another facility through the Friends of County Animal Shelters program. The $145 adoption fee includes medical exam, up to date vaccinations, spay, and microchip identification. 

Get Sassy or sponsor a pet until its new family takes it home. Call 760-753-6413...log on to SDpets.org...or visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas.
