Rex

Rex is a Queensland heeler mix, who is almost 3-years-old.

His owner can no longer take care of him due to ill health. Rex has lived with children, and is good with female dogs and non-dominant male dogs. He has been a little shy in the shelter. Rex really enjoys car rides.

Rex is neutered, microchipped, tested for heart worm, and vaccinated. He 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. Go to the Tahoe animal shelter’s Facebook page to see photos and descriptions of all pets at the shelter.

Call 530.573.7925 for directions, hours, and other information on adopting a pet.

For spay-neuter assistance for South Tahoe residents, go to online or call the animal shelter. Vouchers are available there also: bring $25 and a copy of a photo ID and a local utility bill.
