LIKE PUZZLES? You’ll love Sudoku. This mind-bending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off, so sharpen your pencil and put your sudoku savvy to the test. HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each tow, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle.

Excellent Care Professional Service

Meet Jake!

Jake was surrendered to the shelter after his owner passed away. He is a male, senior, mixed breed.We are estimating Jake to be 8+ years old. He is neutered. Jake would do best in a quiet home. Jake has a sweet temperament; he is well mannered and walks nicely on the leash. Jake is missing a lot of his teeth, so he needs to be fed soft foods.

Meet Lloyd!

Lloyd came in as a stray, we are estimating that he is 2-3 years old. He is Neutered. Lloyd is friendly and loves extra attention. We are normally closed for weekends. If you have an emergency for animal control, please contact dispatch at (231) 745- 2711.
