My story

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

Meet Brick!!!


This handsome 10-month-old boy already weighs about 60 pounds and is likely still filling out into his big, strong frame. Brick is a smart young dog who already knows “sit” and is happy to show off his skills for a tasty treat. Like many adolescents, he’s still learning about the world and will benefit from continued training to help him polish his manners. He’s eager to learn and enjoys working with his people, which will make training a fun and rewarding experience for his future family.


Brick has been a bit nervous since arriving here, so we’re still getting to know all the wonderful layers of his personality. Because of his size and youthful energy, we’d like any children in the home to meet him prior to adoption to ensure everyone feels comfortable. We also recommend that all family members come in to meet him, as that can help Brick feel more confident and set everyone up for success from the start.


We haven’t yet seen Brick’s full personality around other dogs due to his initial nervousness, but with slow, thoughtful introductions, we think he could do well. As a young, growing pup, he’ll thrive in a home committed to continuing his training and helping him build confidence. With patience, guidance, and plenty of positive reinforcement, Brick has all the potential to grow into a loyal, loving, and well-mannered companion.


He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines and preventatives.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We’re glad you’ve decided to adopt a shelter pet!

Public visiting hours at the CAHS Shelter are 12-7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 11 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturday. No appointment necessary. Adoption profiles must be started 15 minutes before close.

It is important to bring any children in the house with you to meet potential pets. We also recommend that all family members be present for an adoption. This will help ensure that the potential pet is the best possible fit for everyone in your family!

What to Bring
Government-issued ID
Cash or a credit card to pay for your adoption fee(s) and optional supplies
A carrier for your adopted cat or a leash and collar for your adopted dog. These items are available for sale at the CAHS Shelter if you do not own them.
About the Adoption
Please plan for approximately an hour to complete your adoption. If the shelter is busy, it could take longer. You will be asked to complete a one-page profile and then an Adoption Counselor will meet with you to discuss your pet(s) of interest.

Animals go home at the time of adoption. Adoption Counselors invest time with you to make sure you’re fully informed before you leave and have all the resources you need to introduce your new pet(s) into your home.

After the Adoption
About a week after you adopt, a CAHS Adoption Counselor will follow-up with you to see how things are going and offer assistance should you need it.

Please note, CAHS does not offer refunds on adoption fees. We encourage you to call regarding any difficulties you have. We have many resources available to help make your adoption a successful match.
