Meet Velma, the 3 year old grey pitbull with the cutest little underbite! Velma came to the shelter as a stray so we don’t know much about her previous history. Here at the shelter she has proven herself to be a very sweet girl. The volunteers have notes that she loves butt-scratches and is a good walker! So far Velma has shown that she isn’t a huge fan of her shelter-mates so far, so she may do better as a solo dog who gets all the attention. If you are looking for a darling little pittie to be your best friend, come down and meet Velma today! Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
