Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Darla,
Darla is a beautiful gentle giant. She was rescued from a high kill shelter in the nick of time. Sadly,
Darla’s story is like so many. She was used and abused for breeding and then left to die at a high kill
shelter. Along the way she developed cancerous tumors that were left untreated and developed heart
worms, both life-threatening. Thanks to an army of supporters, some good veterinarians and a lot of
faith, Darla is on the mend and ready to be adopted.
Darla is a two-year-old Mastiff. She has a pretty face and gorgeous brindle markings. She is a big girl (107
lbs.), but so gentle and graceful. She has a calm and easy-going manner. She LOVES being with people.
She happily strolls along or snuggles in close for some love and comfort. Darla may be selective about
dogs. She seems to do well with calm dogs, and she doesn’t seem to mind cats. She may be house-
trained and she walks well on a leash. Darla loves going for car rides and happily watches the world go
by.
Darla is very patient and very lovable. She loves big and when welcomed into a family she is going to be
a loyal and happy girl. We are over the moon about Darla and for anyone who loves and knows this
breed, you will be smitten at first sight.
If interested in Darla, please submit an application online at:
https://www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/page/dog-adoption-application
Once an application is submitted online, you will receive an email saying your application has been
successfully submitted. If you don’t receive this email within 24 hours, please check to make sure all
application fields were completed or please email our shelter at
smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.net. All adopters must complete an approval process which
involves a reference check with current/recent vet and a brief home visit if located in the immediate
area. We do permit out of state adoptions. Adopters MUST come to the shelter to transport their new
family member home. We do not ship nor do we transport them to their new homes. Adoption policies
and application procedures are detailed at the shelter website: http://smithgallhumanesociety.org/
under tab All Adoptable Animals.
Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care remain safe with us
until adopted. Resident animals are primarily owner relinquished and also accepted from local Animal
Control. The facility usually is operating at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.
Adoptions and meet and greets are being scheduled by appointment only. Please email us or complete
an application and someone will be in touch just as soon as they can.
