Our girl Pearl has the right name because she is absolutely a gem. She was scared and overwhelmed by shelter life when she first joined us, but after decompressing as a full-time house dog in the Director's office, her confidence blossomed and she became known to staff, volunteers, and visitors as one of the sweetest, most gentle dogs here. Pearl is what we think of as a fantastic breed ambassador. She plays well with both big and small dogs and has had successful meetings with some of our adoptable kitties, so she could possibly be a great fit for a multi-pet household. Despite her big-dog size and weight, she is absolutely committed to being by your side at all times for snuggles and snoozes. Zoomies also have their moment! Looking for a loyal and loving companion? Pearl is waiting for you. If you'd like to meet her, please visit https://www.hsnb.org/dog-adoption-application/ to fill out an interest application. Her adoption fee means she comes to you spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on all her vaccinations. Primary Color: Grey Secondary Color: White Weight: 43 Age: 4yrs 1mths 3wks

Additional adoption info
We test animals for the following:
Dogs: Good with other dogs, possibly cats, food aggression, walks on leash, noting any other attributes we may know.
Cats: Good with other cats, litter box trained, noting any other attributes we may know.
We cannot test if any animal is good with children. We may know if an animal is possibly house trained, but cannot guarantee any animal in the shelter is house trained. We do not know if a dog is good with cats unless we are advised by a person surrendering the animal. We may have an idea of this depending on how the dog reacts to our community cats that live on the property.
Please visit our website for current fees, and to find out about adoption specials! (The website link is at the top and bottom of this page)
