It’s just another ordinary afternoon for Sheldon the tortoise and Dolly the pit bull, who are in the yard playing their usual game of chase.
“And, yes, Sheldon is surprisingly fast!” says veterinarian Cynthia Jones, who is the adoptive mom to the pair.
Dolly the is a 3-year-old pit who was taken from her previous owners in a cruelty seizure. Jones and her husband, Ray, a law enforcement officer, adopted her about a year ago out of the Humane Society of North Texas, where Jones works.
