$50 Adoption fee! Why so low? Yakima County is spilling over with stray and dumped dogs. Our goal is to get dogs into the right homes ASAP so we can help other dogs in need. It's not about the money, it's about finding the right home for these pups! Cookie was found on the streets of Selah by Selah Animal Control. She has been a lot of fun to foster with her spunky, ready to play personality. Cookie would thrive with a fur sibling to play with and be the perfect companion for hikes and exploring. If you are looking for an active dog with lots of love to give, Cookie might be your perfect match. This dog is located in Selah, WA. PetFinder allows multiple postings of the same animal as long as the postings are 100 miles apart from each other. This way we can reach far and wide to find the perfect home for this dog. If driving to Selah is difficult for you, we will do our best to find a rescue partner to meet you halfway.
