Firefly
MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- The Wisconsin Humane Society (WHS) needs your help to get Firefly home in time for Thanksgiving.
The 1 1/2-year-old dog has been available for 75 consecutive days -- and first entered the shelter as a stray from Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission (MADACC) seven months ago. At WHS, the average stay on the adoption floor for a dog is under two days.
Angela Speed, vice president of communications at the Wisconsin Humane Society, said the following in a news release issued on Friday:
Last week, WHS reached out to the Pabst Theater Group to see if they could help, and were floored by the response: The Pabst offered to not only pay for Firefly’s $25 adoption fee, but also pay for a WHS dog training class and give her new adopter a $100 Gift Certificate to Bark & Scratch Outpost for food and treats.
Firefly still remains available for adoption at the WHS Milwaukee Campus. Interested in adopting? Speed noted that Firefly would do best in a home without other animals, as she prefers to be the center of attention. To fill out an adopter profile, go to wihumane.org or stop in during adoption hours, T-F 12-8, SAT 10-6, SUN 11-5.
