Listen to Hilley and Hart each Friday at 7:30 AM for 94.3 KAT Country’s Furry Friends.
Each week, Hilley & Hart introduce you to a dog or cat (or maybe something else!) from the Jefferson City Animal Shelter that would LOVE to be a part of your family!
Bonesy, a 10- to 12-month-old neutered male Hound mix, is this week’s Furry Friend on KAT Country. Bonesy was brought to the shelter as a stray, so little is known about him. He seems to be very friendly and a happy boy while at the shelter. He is now ready to find a forever family.
Bonesy does have a grade 2 heart murmur. A grade 2 heart murmur in a young dog under a year old is very common and frequently turns out to be an “innocent” or physiologic murmur. Because the cardiovascular system develops rapidly during a puppy’s first year, blood flow can sometimes be turbulent without any underlying disease. This will need to be monitored by the adopter’s vet of choice.
Visit the Jefferson City Animal Shelter today and make yourself a new Furry Friend! They’re open Monday-Friday from 12 Noon to 5:30 PM and are located at 2308 Hyde Park Road. Their phone number is 573-634-6429. Be sure to visit their website to see all the animals available for adoption!
