County adopt-a-pet dog Breeze
From the county CEO's office: "Breeze is a lovable lady who has been at the DeKalb Shelter for almost two years. She is a favorite among the staff and volunteers. Breeze knows how to sit and lie down on command. She likes attention even more than treats! Constantly happy and ready for anything, as long as it's with you.

She will thrive as an only dog or with another submissive dog."
