Sidney is a nice hound mix. All of her breeds are a bit of a mystery.

She is 3-years-old and very sweet, about 45 pounds, and she will lean up against you for pets. She is house trained and has good manners. She likes to play with other friendly dogs and would like to meet yours before going home. She has lived with small children.

Sidney is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. She is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes.
