Champaign County Pet of the Week

Nala is a 4-year-old female American Eskimo/Samoyed mix. She is a large dog at 60 pounds. Nala came to us as a surrender by her owner. She loves human attention and would be a very loyal friend. However, because of her history, we cannot place Nala in a home with a female dog or small children. She has been spayed, is up to date on vaccinations (including rabies) and has tested negative for heartworm. Come visit Nala at the Paws Animal Shelter, 1535 W. U.S. Highway 36 in Urbana. You can also visit

or petfinder.com. Shelter hours are noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, noon to 4 p.m. Saturday and closed Sunday and Monday. We can be reached at 937-653-6233.
