Mercy is an absolute sweetheart with so much love to give! She is great on a leash and is very food motivated and eager to please. She enjoys long walks and zoomies outside, but once inside she will happily chill on her bed with a chew toy or find a spot in the sun to lounge. You can tell she has been so grateful to get out of the shelter and will shower you in kisses whenever she gets a chance. A wonderful pup who deserves a loving home!
Because Mercy is currently in a foster home an appointment must be made to meet them! All of our available animals and adoption applications can be found here: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet . Once you fill out an application for an animal in foster care, the shelter forwards that onto the foster and the foster will contact you! All adoptions come with 30-days of support from our staff to help make sure the transition from the shelter to your home goes as smoothly as possible.
