Alexandria Pet Of The Week: Patty Is Ready For Summer Adventures

ALEXANDRIA, VA — Summer is the perfect time to get a walking or running buddy and head outdoors. A dog can be an active companion for those outdoor adventures.

If you're in the market for a furry friend, consider starting your search at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria. Patch regularly features adoptable animal shelter pets to help them find homes.

One of the available pets is Patty, an adventurous gal who can tag along on your hikes and swims.
