Name: Boyd
Breeds: American Bully
Age: Adut
Sex: Male
Size: Large
Boyd is a 3-4 year old black, stocky, big headed, bully type dog, who is really a calm, level headed guy. He is currently fostered with other dogs and cats, as well as an assortment of outdoor animals and is doing fine with all of them. He is playful with the other dogs, but is really a people-oriented kind of guy so would do well alone in the home too. He isn't crated currently, but would be fine with it. He is definitely an experienced, in-the-home guy. Not only is he doing excellent with his potty training refresher, he also does not jump on the furniture. He instead likes to lounge around on a dog bed and spends the night curled up on his own foam dog bed in the bedroom. He isn't a chewer or a barker. He did announce that Amazon had arrived with a delivery, but he was chorusing along with the other dogs. Along with walks and naps, his favorite pastime is sitting next to his foster dad's chair and getting pats. This blockhead might not be the brightest bulb on the tree, but he is definitely treat-motivated and therefore trainable. He already knows basic commands like sit and shake and is working on down. He pulls a bit on the leash, but is improving all the time. He also has excellent recall off leash. While he is definitely calm, he also needs his daily walks. And a rope to tug on or even a big stall ball to play with outdoors. This guy has been well socialized and is ready to join you on your adventures. Or just hanging out, watching sports or a movie.
Requirements: No special requirements
Adoption Fee: $500 + tax. This includes neuter/spay, current vaccinations as age appropriate, heartworm/tick testing in dogs over 8 months of age, deworming, microchip and current Heartgard and Nexgard preventatives.

id you see a dog that caught your eye? Ready to start the adoption process? Happy to help! Feel free to email the dog's listed contact with any questions you have...the dogs live in our homes with us so we know them very well.
Please fill out the preadopt application which is the first step to meeting/adopting a dog from HHK9. We read through the application, check references, and once approved (we aim for 24-48 hours to approve or deny depending on how quickly references reply), we set up a visit with you and the foster home or direct you to an adoption event to meet the dog(s). Fosters are more than happy to answer questions that arise. We all want a good match the first time, and a successful experience for the adopter and the dog.
After meeting, you can choose to adopt if it seems like a good match. There is a 2 week trial on all adoptions to ensure there is time for the dog adjust and the fit between the dog and your home is right. We encourage adopters to give it a MINIMUM of a week. Returning a dog before that period means it never had a chance to settle in and show you what the true personality is like. Moving dogs between homes is stressful and not in the dog's best interests. We are here to support you after adoption also, answering questions and helping make the process as positive as we can. We highly recommend you read the tips in this packet (Adopting 101) before bringing your new dog home...it will help greatly ease the transition and make it a positive experience for everyone!
Our adoption fees are non-negotiable and average about $385 for adults and $425 for puppies which includes their vet work-spay/neuter, vaccinations, heartworm testing (if old enough),microchip, deworming, and current preventatives. Often the vet costs far exceed the adoption fee, especially on our special needs dogs. We rely on adoption fees to be able to continue to rescue more dogs in need.

We rescue all types of dogs, ranging from small to large breeds. Roughly 40% of the dogs we rescue are purebred while the other 60% are mixed breeds. We will tell you about each dog's history, personality, & behavior, including whether or not they are good which children and other pets, their exercise needs, & other important information.
