Meet Boonie — Big Heart, Big Personality, and an Even Bigger Love for Sniffs! Boonie’s story started on a rough note—found as a stray at a known dumping site—but he hasn’t let that dim his joyful spirit. Since arriving at the shelter, this lovable guy has made incredible progress and is turning heads with his goofy charm and zest for life. He’s a treat-motivated sweetheart who’s learning his leash manners and adjusting to life in a harness. While he occasionally gets a bit overexcited about snacks (watch those fingers!), his eagerness to please makes him a fun work in progress. Boonie is a certified sniffer—exploring the world nose-first is his favorite activity! He adores belly scratches, affection, and being the center of attention, often “talking” to let you know he’s ready for love and laughs. This goofy hug-giver is neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative and up-to-date on vaccinations. Ready to add a little Boonie-boost to your life? Your new best friend is just a sniff away!

Additional adoption info
It is the goal of the SJBHS to find a good match for all of our adoptable animals. In that effort, we screen every home before we approve an adoption. In general, SJBHS uses the following guidelines when determining the status of an applicant for adoption, with the understanding that if there is a questionable application, the Executive Director will make the final decision on adoption and may choose to approve applications that fall outside of these general guidelines.
In general, SJBHS does NOT adopt to:
•Homes in which other animals are not current on vaccinations and are not altered
•Homes that have previously given away an animal
All applicants will have to provide their veterinarian information prior to adoption approval.

More about this shelter
St. Joseph Bay Humane Society, Inc. is dedicated to relieve animal suffering, prevent animal cruelty, promote human education and enhance the animal and human bond.
Before SJBHS was founded, conditions at the city and county pounds were deplorable and not likely to get better. Animals were being killed at a rate of approximately 70 per month.
The St. Joseph Bay Humane Society was formed to alleivate the suffering. The Society received it's 501c3 status in 1998.
A new facility was constructed in 2007 and provides safe housing for the homeless animals of our county.
The St. Joseph Bay Humane Society is proud to announce its DAWGS in Prison program, a joint effort with Gulf Correctional Institution.
All of the dogs selected for this program go through an intense 8-week training session and live with their trainers, handlers and caretakers in a dormitory style work camp. All of these dogs have had an extensive temperament test and get along well with other dogs and people. They are available for adoption immediately and will able to go to their forever homes with you after graduation.
We continue to educate the public about the importance of spaying or neutering their pets. We do this through our own adoption events and ongoing community events.
We continue to be successful, thanks to the efforts of our volunteers and fundraisers. Paws in the Park and the Bow Wow Bash are huge seasonal fundraisers for us.

It is located on our property ajacent to the Shelter.
