Animal Ark Spotlight

By Leslie Hudgins

 Meet Van, the one-of-a-kind Bull Terrier mix with a heart of gold.

Van is a cuddly and handsome 3-year-old male dog, and despite a rough start, he has plenty of love to give.

He came to the shelter with a burn down his back, but with love and care, he healed up beautifully. Now, he has a unique white streak running down his back that adds charm.

He absolutely adores running and playing with his friends at the shelter. He is a social butterfly and would do best in a home with people who love giving hugs and snuggles, especially at night.

He also gets along well with other dogs. So, he wouldn't mind having a furry sibling to share his space.

Van’s special traits make him stand out. He is affectionate, devoted, and has a loyal personality that truly shines.

Come and meet Van at Animal Ark Rescue, located at 7133 Sacerdote Lane, Columbus, Ga., 31907, from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and see if you’re meant to be family; or, call (706) 289-8495.
