The Big Cheese looking for a heart to melt
MOSES LAKE – For some reason, I think I’m the big cheese, perhaps because Big Cheese is literally my name. The folks here at Grant County Animal Outreach know how to give a pup a name that builds him up. I’m a mix of this and that and the folks here at the shelter say I’m around 44 pounds at just over three years old. I’d love to meet you and see if we click and can hang out together for the long term. Feel free to provide cheesy treats. If this big lump of cheddar seems like your type, visit GrantCountyAnimalOutreach.org and fill out his application today. If you can’t adopt right now but would like to help a local shelter, visit the website and click “donate.”
