My story

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

Hey there, I'm Charger, and I'm still trying to figure things out. My world got turned upside down when my human dad passed away, and my mom's not able to take care of me anymore because of her illness. It's been tough being in this shelter, everything's so different and confusing. But you know what? I'm still friendly, even if I'm feeling a bit anxious.
I may be new here, but I've been told I'm a good boy. I weigh in at a solid 86lbs, and I'm a mix of doggie goodness. My previous owner said I'm housetrained, good with cats, dogs, and kids. And you know what? I think they're right. I've been meeting some other dogs here, and I'm taking it slow with the introductions. But after a few minutes, I'm ready to play and have some fun.
I might be a bit unsure about some play styles and body language at first, but I'm a quick learner. We're all still getting to know each other here. So if you're looking for a loyal buddy who's ready to learn and grow with you, I'm your guy. Let's navigate this new chapter together, shall we?

More about this shelter

“The Siskiyou Humane Society exists to improve the lives of companion animals by sheltering, rehabilitating, reducing pet overpopulation and finding permanent homes. We promote responsible pet ownership, kindness to animals and enhancement of human-animal relationships through education and outreach.”

Since its founding in 1968, the Siskiyou Humane Society Adoption Center in Mt. Shasta has provided rescue and refuge for hundreds of homeless cats and dogs every year. The shelter’s staff and volunteers take special pride in getting to know the animals as individuals. Because they are familiar with the personalities of the shelter cats and dogs, they can help potential adopters find the best matches for their families and lifestyles. From kittens and puppies to previously trained adults, all pets adopted from SHS are spayed and neutered, given permanent micro-chip identification, and adult dogs are assessed for behavior using a nationally known behavior evaluation.

Siskiyou Humane Society is a “no-kill” facility, animals aren’t euthanized because they’ve been in the shelter for too long, or to make room for more animals, but are cared for until they find new homes. Preventing pet over-population is a big part of the Society’s mission statement. The shelter provides information and referrals for low-income Spay/Neuter assistance programs in Siskiyou County. SHS also offers humane education presentations for schools, youth groups and service organizations with topics like dog-bite prevention and kindness to animals. To help owned pets stay in their homes, the shelter’s Behavior Team provides free consulting for common behavior problems, so that pet owners and pet can live together in peace.

As a private, 501(c)(3)non-profit animal welfare organization, the shelter receives no funding from government agencies or national humane organizations. Most of the funding comes from private donations and the sales at the Society’s two thrift stores.
