My personality

My story

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

Meet Snarly Joe 7161
Snarly Joe wears a non-stop grin with lots of help from his “I know it makes me cute” overbite. Even if he is a guy, we agree with the cute quality but would add distinctive to the narrative. His name is Snarly Joe for a reason and as Brussels Griffon’s commonly do, he forgets his small stature and although he weighs only 12 pounds, he possesses a mastiff-sized personality, a characteristic he had to have to survive. It took almost 4 months before the Sheriff’s animal control specialists were able to capture him as he alluded them by dashing across the highway 12 bridge on Beaver Lake. It is a very busy and lengthy bridge but 8-year-old Snarly Joe managed to live through the turmoil and danger. Due to his neglected past, Snarly Joe is not a cuddly lap dog nor does he pretend to be.

Snarly Joe gets along marvelously with other canines, even sharing a kennel with 4 other small dogs. It makes no difference if the dogs are male or female, large or small, young or old, or pure bred or mutt, Snarly enjoys their company. Snarly Joe is a spirited little guy who walks well on leash and usually takes treats with thankful respect. If you can accept him for who he is, you are an evolved human who will find him an intriguingly curious dualistic blend of adverse and upbeat energies.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee is $70 which covers all the basic shots and worming medications appropriate for the age of the animal as well as the required spaying or neutering. If the animal is too young to be neutered, a voucher is presented to the adopter to cover the process at a participating vet. Rabies shots are not included. We have an application process in which we ask basic questions to insure that you and the chosen pet are a good match for each other. We do require a vet reference. If you have been arrested and convicted of animal abuse or neglect, you will not be considered for adoption. If you do not own your home, a letter from the landlord giving permission to have a pet is required. Local ordinances regarding maximum numbers of pets shall be observed. All other household pets must be spayed or neutered. All pets are adopted "as is." Should the pet not work out after you take it home, we ask that you return the animal to us for re-homing. We want each animal to find a loving forever home and reserve the right to refuse any application should the individual needs of the chosen animal not be in that dog's best interest. Contact our office for inquiries and applications.
