About Inez

Inez is a 3-year-old Mastiff mix who brings a whirlwind of friendly energy wherever she goes. After arriving at the shelter as a stray, she has already made a big impression at 102 pounds, showing just how much she loves people. Leaning in for affection, she seems to forget her size and often tries to be a lap dog. Inez enjoys chasing toys and is quick to let them go for something new. While she's learning her manners and leash walking, her eagerness to please makes her a fast learner. Inez needs a patient home that provides structure as she adjusts. Currently, she would do best as the only pet, but with time, she could easily become a loyal and entertaining family member. To meet Inez, potential adopters should complete an application before scheduling an appointment. The friendly staff at Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center is happy to assist you.
