Furry Friend Friday
ALANNA WOLF Staff Writer
This princess is looking for her happy ending. Aurora is a 5-year-old Staffordshire terrier who has been living at the New Nodaway Humane Society shelter since 2012. Before she came to live at the shelter, Aurora was mistreated as a breeding female. As a result of her negative experience as a breeder, Aurora is aggressive with other dogs and will do best in a home where she is the only pet. She loves people though, and is always up for a good snuggle. Contrary to appearances, Aurora is a gentle giant who loves children and is always looking for her next play buddy. Aurora is up to date on all of her vaccinations, and will be spayed before she leaves the Humane Society to go to her forever home.
What’s happening at the Humane Society?
October is Bully Breed Awareness month, so each Friday for the rest of October our Furry Friend Friday canine will be a bully breed that is available for adoption.
The New Nodaway Humane Society is always looking for volunteers willing to help with the animals. If you or someone you know is interested in volunteering, call the society at 660.562.3333.
The Humane Society is also in need of supplies. Donations of paper towels, trash bags, cat food, dog food, and kitty litter are always appreciated. Anyone wishing to help support the Humane Society is welcome to donate items or funds. Donations are accepted at the shelter, which is located at 829 S. Depot St. in Maryville.

Say hello to Tabby, a 1-year-old tiger-striped domestic shorthair female. Tabby was a pet once before, but her owners couldn’t handle taking care of her, so she has been staying at the shelter for the past few months. Tabby loves all people and animals, so she will fit in with any family with ease. She’s energetic and is always ready to play, especially if treats are involved. Tabby is up do date on all of her vaccinations and will be spayed before she is allowed to leave the shelter for her forever home.
