Hey there, pals! I'm Ty, the cutest beanie baby boy around. At first, I was a bit shy when I arrived at Heartland, but let me tell you, I've blossomed into quite a good boy! Once I warm up to you, get ready for some serious best bud bonding. I came in as a stray, so my friends at Heartland don't know much about my history but they know so much about me now. Playing and frolicking in the yard are some of my favorite pastimes, especially if it involves a good game of tug-o-war or fetch. A home with active family members would be a good fit for me, but I love a good snuggle time as well. If you need a good hiking buddy, I would love to go with you! Now, about my canine companions - I've met some dogs here at Heartland, and while I was eager to make friends and play, sometimes I get a little overexcited. I love to go on pack walks with my doggo friends here at heartland and do good with most of the other dogs here. I would love to meet any other dogs in your home, before I go home with you. I'm a total sucker for treats! With tasty snacks, I have mastered all sorts of tricks. I know how to sit, go down, wait, and so much more. I would love to work on other training with my new parents. Plus, just wait until you see my adorable smiling face - it's sure to melt your heart! So, what do you say? Swing by Heartland and let's meet each other! I can't wait to become a part of your family and bring endless joy and laughter into your life! My adoption fee is $175.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption procedures have changed in response to safety restrictions and precautions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Please visit our website, heartlandhumane.org, specifically our Adoptions page (heartlandhumane.org/adoptions/), for up-to-date information on adoption procedures.
Things to know:
• We require that you are allowed to have an animal where you live. We will contact the rental agency or owner of the property to verify this prior to approving an adoption questionnaire.
• We reserve the right to deny an adoption if the animal will not be a good fit for your home.
• Adoption fees must be paid at the time of adoption (see below for a table of current adoption fees).
• Dogs: If you have a dog in your home already, you will need to schedule a dog-to-dog meet at the shelter before your adoption can be approved.
• Cats and small animals: We do not have the ability to do pet meets with cats or small animals prior to adoption. However, we can counsel you on safely introducing a new pet into the home, and will always take our animals back if an adoption does not work out.
• We require that animals are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. If an animal is not yet fixed, you may place a hold on it until it is ready to be adopted.
Heartland will always take our animals back if an adoption does not work out.
