Simba

Simba

He may not be the tiny lion cub from “The Lion King,” but this week’s adorable pet is ready to be a part of your pride. Meet Simba, a 3-year-old, 70-pound poodle who has been neutered.

Simba is house broken and crate trained and is described as being affectionate and playful, but due to some past trauma from being kenneled for long periods of time, he needs to be in an adult-only home with an experienced dog person who is firm but gentle.

For the remainder of the year, most animals at the shelter are part of the Home 4 the Holidays campaign where adoptions are half price.

For more information on Simba or any other adorable pets up for adoption, contact the New Nodaway Humane Society at 660-562-3333 or online at newnodawayhumanesociety.org. The New Nodaway Humane Society is located at 829 S. Depot St., Maryville.
