WDHA's Rock N' Ruff is back this week with a great pup! Sweet Kona- A 2-3 year-old female pup that is a long-term resident of The Randolph Regional Animal Shelter - Randolph Regional Animal Shelter Website -

ABOUT KONA-

Kona is a 2-3 year old female terrier mix, who is the life of the party! The Randolph Regional Animal Shelter took in Kona after being found as a stray and ending up in another shelter and is a fun, energetic girl. In fact, Kona has been overlooked at the shelter because she is so happy and exuberant, her energy may scare some people off- why? It shouldn't! Kona is happy, friendly, loves riding in the car, playing with her ball and toys, swimming, and running, basically Kona likes doing everything!  She would really like to do everything in her forever home, with her very own family.

Kona Loves Her Ball

Kona also enjoys the company of other dogs and the shelter feels she would be fine with Cats. Poor Kona, is coming up on being in the shelter for a year. Making her a long-term shelter resident, so we are hoping her Rock N' Ruff exposure will get her noticed and she will have some visitors! The Randolph Regional Animal Shelter also has a fantastic "Foster To Adopt" program, which helps dogs and humans find their perfect match. I actually feature them in my- '5 Important Tips When Adopting A New Pet" story- 5 Important Tips Before Adopting A New Pet.
