The Lithgow Mercury’s Pet of the Week is a male mixed breed kelpie.

This lovely pup is around two-years-old and would make a great family pet and a loyal companion.

To start the process of welcoming a new pet to the family, call 6354 9999 to arrange a time to meet.

Animals can be inspected at the shelter from 3pm weekdays or by arrangements via the council’s main office in Mort Street.

All animals are checked for health and temperament before release.
