Beamer is coming to Cheverly tomorrow!

Meet Beamer (Miss Bea to her friends)! She's a sweet yellow lab mix who ended up in a high kill shelter in January. When the shelter was told it had to downsize from 200 to about 30 dogs in a matter of weeks, a vet took Bea in to keep her from being euthanized. Until she came to the DC area, she was living in an outside kennel with a few pals, hoping for a family of her own.

Bea is timid at first with new situations, and needs a family who will be patient with her as she settles in and learns that she's safe. She takes treats very gently, and cautiously wags her tail at any affection. She is happier with other dogs than on her own and would do best in an adult-only home.
