Meet Petunia…Our Tri-Cities Animal Shelter Pet of The Week

Our Tri-Cities Animal Shelter Pet of The Week is Petunia, a stunning Bulldog mix who is approximately 2 years old. Petunia’s journey began with a call to Animal Control about a dog abandoned in a field near Oregon Avenue in Pasco. When officers arrived, it was clear that Petunia had been on the run for a while. Her collar had become so deeply embedded in her neck that it required surgical removal. Despite this rough start, Petunia’s spirit has remained unbreakable.

 Since arriving at Tri-Cities Animal Shelter on May 2nd, Petunia has made remarkable progress and is ready to find her furever home. Though she is highly reactive to other animals and would do best as the only pet in the home, Petunia has an abundance of love to offer. Her excitement for walks is so enthusiastic that she turns it into a playful game of tug-of-war! On a leash, she walks beautifully and stays right by your side. Petunia also has a passion for water and loves to be near her human companions rather than playing with toys.

 Petunia is incredibly food motivated and eager to please, making her a prime candidate for easy training. A little about Bulldogs: These lovable dogs are known for their distinctive wrinkled faces and sturdy, muscular builds.
