My story

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

Our sweet Libby is a bit of a shy girl at first, but she warms right up when she gets to know you. She is about 2-3 years old, is up to date shots and is spayed. She does get along with other dogs but can be selective, so we always do a meet and greet. She does not do well with small dogs or cats. Come meet sweet Libby and see if she'll be your lifelong partner!

Additional adoption info

After applying for an adoptable animal we screen all adopters via application, phone interview and meet/greet. Once that has gone through we will schedule a home visit to ensure everyone is happy with their decision.
If the home visit goes well and the adopter wants to move forward we will leave the pet in their possession and allow them to "foster" for up to two weeks to make their final decision. If the decision is to adopt, we will finalize paperwork, collect the adoption fee, and transfer all information to the new adopters.
