My personality

My story

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

What can we say about Burt? You know a dog is special when your canine manager falls in love and wants to take him home! But, she's graciously decided to allow all of you the chance to love this handsome boy! Burt is a 2-year-old lab/shepherd/hound mix (to the best of our knowledge).

Burt is a little nervous around new people, but once he gets a second to sniff you out and trust that you're nice, you've got a friend for life. He's described as a loving and loyal companion who is a fast learner and aims to please, and once he gets comfortable, he's a carefree, happy-go-lucky boy! He loves to play fetch with balls and frisbees, so he'd like an active home with plenty of room to run and play. He really LOVES other dogs, but still asks for a meet and greet just to be extra sure. He seems to want to chase cats, so a cat-free home would probably be best. He hasn't had much exposure to little kids, but getting him used to new things and experiences in a safe and patient environment would be key. Burt is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Fill out an application at the sanctuary or www.secondchanceas.org/adopt (Inquiries on online listings don't constitute an application)

2.

Interview

We will call your veterinarian and personal references. We'll also call you if we have questions or need more information.

3.

Approve Application

We will approve or deny the application. You may be approved to adopt, but not necessarily the same animal you originally applied for.

4.

Meet the Pet

This may be done before applying. You'll be asked to sign an adoption contract and to make a certain donation amount, rather than a set fee.

Additional adoption info

We are passionate about pairing animals in need with loving families who would best suit their individual needs. NOTE: You do not have to apply for a specific animal on your application. You can submit it as a "pre-application" for a certain size, age or breed of animal, and if approved, we can contact you if a possible match arrives at the shelter.
