Pet of the Week: Adorable Amy

DOTHAN, Ala. (WTVY) - NEWS 4 had a nutty good time this afternoon with our Pet of the Week, at the National Peanut Festival fair grounds!

Say hello to Amy, a 1 year old chocolate lab mix. She is the sweetest and loves to meet new people.

Melissa Gideon with the Dothan Animal Shelter told NEWS 4 that she doesn’t see Amy lasting too much longer at the shelter since she is young and very personable. Gideon also tells us that she has a very distinctive feature; her tall ears! “When they stand up, she looks like a bat. Her ears are bigger than her,” said Gideon about Amy’s adorable ears.
