Big pup with a big heart

ANDREW WELLNER/Frontiersman

Big Betty is still a puppy, and she has the energy to prove it, though you wouldn’t know it from her size — she’s a very large, very strong pit bull/St. Bernard mix. Taller people looking to get into the sport of doggy ballroom dancing might consider her as a potential partner. Farmers seeking an unlikely plow horse might also be well-served. She’s been at the shelter since the middle of last month and since she lacks a microchip and hasn’t been spayed the cost to adopt her would be $119.50. Her shelter identification number is A029610.
