Pet of the week: Jurni
STAFF REPORT | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 4 years, 1 month AGO
Adams County Pet Rescue
Jurni is a fun loving Pit Bull that came to Adams County Pet Rescue. Adams County Pet Rescue raised money for his hind leg amputation. However, being a tripod isn't slowing this boy down at all. He tries to jump up to get treats and his balance is getting better and better. We don't encourage the jumping and it will be something that his new people will need to work on. Jurni is very people oriented and enjoys getting out and walking. He also wants to play with other dogs but can be a little overbearing. Like all of our pets available for adoption, he has been neutered, microchipped and is up to date on vaccinations.
For more information, call Adam’s County Pet Rescue at 509-488-5544 or by visiting us on the web at adamscountypetrescue.com. Jurni and other pets may be found at our shelter located at 1961 W. Bench Road in Othello.

About 104 homes are planned at the former Atlas sawmill site
Teachers, nurses, firefighters and other workers who keep Coeur d’Alene running will soon have more places to buy a home in the community where they work. About 104 homes are being planned to be built at Atlas Waterfront, on roughly 10 acres that are part of a swath of land that was once home to the Atlas sawmill and is being redeveloped. Ignite CDA, the city of Coeur d’Alene’s urban renewal agency, is leading this effort.
