This week we met Venus and Aphrodite the dogs...

Here's some information on Venus and Aphrodite from the Humane Society of Ocean City...

"Venus and Aphrodite are both around 2 years of age and both under 35 pounds. They were found on the street together and have become best friends. We would love to keep them together if we could.

They are quite happy to run around the yard with each other and they enjoy playing with toys. They would be fine with older children. The girls have done fine with other dogs they’ve met also.

Adopting a pet as a new family member is a major commitment and responsibility. The Humane Society of Ocean City is there to help you and your family succeed every step of the way. We provide training assistance by one of our certified dog instructors and quality veterinarian services by our award winning clinic."
