My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

WATCH MY VIDEO...Sweetie is just a beautiful girl, inside and out. She was adopted as a puppy, six years ago. Now she`s returned because her family is moving and can`t take her with them. She was ready! Suitcases were packed, but it didn`t happen. She`s understandably nervous in the shelter. She clearly doesn`t understand why she`s here, but with a family who will be gentle and loving to this kind soul, Sweetie will show you just how wonderful she is. When she`s comfortable, she`s friendly and playful. She loves her stuffies and any kind of treats you`d like to give her. She`s active, loving her walks and running at the dog park with new friends. She also loves to people watch, so she`d love to live in a home with a window that she can peer out of. You have to meet this treasure, and look past her shyness, knowing when she`s comfortable once again, she will flourish! Oh, and she likes car rides and meeting new people.

Take the Pet Home

If the pet is spayed/neutered and up-to-date on vaccines, he/she can go home right away. If not, you will pick him/her up the next day.

Additional adoption info

Please visit our shelter, we are open 7 days a week and adoptions opens daily at 11 a.m. All adopters will meet with an adoption counselor to complete an adoption application and then meet their potential new family member. Please bring your driver's license with you or a bill that has your current address on it. All pets are spayed or neutered prior to going home, so the pet may not go home the same day.

The adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, preliminary vaccinations, deworming, treatment for fleas, microchip, limited 14 day health care plan courtesy of VCA Animal Hospitals, feline leukemia test for cats, heartworm test for dogs over the age of 7 months, and a bag of Purina ONE pet food.
