Hello there! I'm Brownie and I am likely a Shepherd mix breed dog. I'm around two years old so I'm past all that puppy energy! I'm a big guy weighing about ninety pounds, I'm a little on the fluffy side but I'm gonna say its all fur!
A little bit about me, I was an outside boy for a while. I didn't really enjoy it, so I decided to take myself for a few walks. I came to the shelter and discovered that the inside life is where I'd like to be from now on. I want to be pampered! I want to have a nice fluffy bed to sleep on and perhaps I could even have my own blanket! Since I'm not one hundred percent used to being inside, it takes me a minute to adjust to my new surroundings. I would love to go to a home that will let me adjust to my new digs at my own pace, which will be quick, I need to have some personal space for a few days. While I have lived with children previously, I think I would enjoy an adult home.
I'm not a party animal but I do love to play with toys so I hope my new home will have some of those for me! I hope you have a big yard; I'll need it for play time you know?!
I would do great in a home with daily walks, as I still enjoy being outside. I'm still learning to walk on a leash, my staff here say I'm doing great. Sometimes I get to go on pack walks with the other pups, how fun is that?! In my previous home, I wasn't around other dogs, but I'm finding out that they're ok! Pack walks have been a great experience for me! If you have any other dogs in your house, I'll need to meet them before you take me home. I just want to make sure we like each other first.
If you're interested in adopting me, please stop by or call and talk to my staff about me! My adoption fee is $175. Benton County adopters have an additional licensing fee.

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.
