TEMPA

Description

Meet Tempa, the 13 year old Australian Cattle dog mix. Tempa came into the Shelter after some previous guardians were unable to continue caring for her. She has previously been an indoor dog who lived with other dogs. She also has some experience with children. Tempa has been around cats and sometimes chases them, but has never harmed them. A home with a dog-savvy cat paired with a slow, thoughtful introduction may be afit in the next home. Tempa is a senior dog, despite still having lots of spunk. A home with an adopter who has the resources to take in and care for a senior dog (which will likely include more frequent vet visits) will be best. Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them
