Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Dog meet and greets are by appointment only, please answer the questions below the bio, either through Petfinder, Adopt-A-Pet or by directly e-mailing us at shelter@hbpets.org. Please be patient, we are over capacity and short staffed, we try to get back to everyone quickly, it may be 4-5 days.
Meet Mason, he came to us in 2022 as a stray. He was adopted shortly after arriving as he is such a good boy. Mason was having a tough time adjusting to a toddler and after a almost a year of trying to make it work, his adopters posted him to be re-homed, through the re-homing site they found his old owner, who also said he doesn't want to be around children and is scared of some men. Mason is a well trained dog, he needs a home with children over age 14yrs, he is cautious of men, specially men who are loud, he does very well with our two guys here. He needs a home with someone who understands heeler behavior, he loves to play fetch for short periods, specially now that he has lost the some weight, he would love a quiet home, loves calm female dogs, he has no issues with woman. He just needs someone who understands him, he is a very sweet boy.His play buddy is Cody a Pit Mix (Available for adoption).
My adoption fee is $125: Included Neuter, Microchip, vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment and a 1lbs bag of food.
1. Do you have a privately fenced yard?
2. How many humans and ages live in your home? Male/female for adults?
3. How many animals, types and male/female for dogs?
4. Do you have the patience to allow Mason to get comfortable with you?
5. He needs an owner who can take him on walks and play chase, is this something you can do?
