Adoptable Pet of the Week
Calhoun
6 months old | Husky mix| Spayed female

Calhoun is my name and playing is my game! I am a very active pup who loves to have lots of friends. I get along with everyone I meet and we always have a blast. A fun fact about me is that I LOVE water! I would be happy at the beach or even in the yard with a kiddie pool. So grab your trunks and let’s have a pool party! If you are ready to party and have fun with life, I am the perfect dog for you! Stop by the Bryan Animal Center today and ask for Calhoun!
