*PET OF THE WEEK - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION*

My name is Jack, and the shelter staff think I am one of the cutest and best puppies they have seen in a long time! I came to the shelter as a very shy puppy back in July, and a super nice police officer from Puyallup has been fostering me since then. I have learned how to be a very good boy, and now I am ready to be adopted by my forever family.

Please note that I am a dog with special needs, because I was born completely deaf. There are lots of things that I can do and I’m very well behaved, but I might need a little extra care whenever I leave the yard or I’m off my leash because I can’t hear you calling my name. I would do best in a house with a fenced in yard, so I can safely play outside even if I can’t hear you

I am very sweet, very snuggly, and very friendly. Come visit me at the shelter in Puyallup on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. -- I promise I will melt your heart!

Today we celebrate the many hands that keep our city running—first responders, crews in the field, planners, clerks, finance staff, and everyone in City Hall—and we wish all our community members a safe and restful holiday. Thank you for making Sumner a great place to live, work, and play.

Yesterday we had the privilege of meeting David Nicholson, a champion powerlifter who has earned top awards at the Special Olympics World Games in Berlin.

Beyond his incredible athletic achievements, David’s greatest passion is policing. He volunteers with the tactical and canine teams, works at a police museum, and supports the Police Foundation back home in Calgary, Alberta.

David loves connecting with law enforcement, and we were so grateful he made time to visit us here in Sumner. Thank you, David, for inspiring us with your dedication and enthusiasm!
