Pet of the Week – Sweetums

February 18, 2025

Our pal Sweetums has been looking for her family for quite some time. Is that with you?

Sweetums is a terrier mix full of love, excitement, and a clear sense of companionship. Joining KHS in December, she loves spending quality time with her people and making new dog friends! A social butterfly and very energetic, you wouldn’t believe that Sweetums is nearly 8 years old!

Sweetums has been spending the last few weeks in foster, and they have adored their time with her! Being in foster allows Sweetums to feel a sense of normalcy as a pup who was particularly stressed by the shelter environment. Her foster says, “She is a dear sweet girl- a bit of a bull in a China cabinet but she has a big heart to match. She’ll make a wonderful pet – just needs kindness and patience – and long walks!!!”

Sweetum’s ideal home environment:
-Kids 10 and older

Because Sweetums is in foster, an appointment will need to be scheduled before visiting her at the shelter. Email a completed dog adoption survey to adoptions@kitsap-humane.org to begin the process. To learn more about Sweetums, visit her Adopt-a-Pet profile!
