KIX Kitties and K9s: Meet Bisquick!
Our pet of the week is Bisquick.
Adoptable hound Bisquick has been with Second Chance for over 400 days now–and we don’t know why! This 5-year-old boy is great with other dogs and with people; he’s affectionate and well-mannered, especially after mastering his obedience courses with a professional trainer; and he’s a goofy guy who’s always down for a good time! Bisquick is the loyal and loving companion whose smile will light up your day, especially when you take him for a hike or throw his frisbee. If you’d like to learn more about adding Bisquick to your family, submit an adoption application at www.SecondChanceNC.org to set up a meeting with his foster parent.
