Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Aren't I EAR-resistable?!?! Hello! My name is Oscar. I am a ~1.5 year old Chihuahua. I was found emaciated in a snow bank on the Cheyenne River Reservation. Since then, I have come into the care of the Brookings Regional Humane Society. With lots of TLC and canned food, I'll be adoptable in no time UPDATE: When I was found, I was only 4.4#. Now I'm 7.8# and I got neutered today! I'm ready for adoption! !
Unlike our cats, our dogs do not stay at the shelter full time. They are kept in foster homes, but come in on Saturdays from 11:00am to 4:00pm. Arrangements can be made to have specific dogs brought in during the week- just give us a call or email to set up a meeting time.
Our adoption fees include the following: all of our dogs/puppies are current on vaccinations (DHPP and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, heartworm tested and current on preventative, treated for fleas/ticks and are spayed or neutered. Our large dog adoption fee is generally $125.00 + tax. Our small dog and puppy adoption fee is generally $160.00 + tax. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Due to space limitations, we do not hold dogs.
You also have the option to microchip your new dog/puppy for only $20. Brookings city pet licenses are also available for purchase for those living in Brookings, SD.
Because we are on a busy street, we require that all dogs leaving the shelter be in a carrier or on leash. All pets remain up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee paid.
