My story

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

***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org***

Are you looking for a dog that likes everyone?  Would love to run at the dog park?  Go for car rides?  Hike? Run? Walk? Play ball?  Go for a swim? Cuddle on the couch and share your snacks??? Well have we got a deal for you!  Not often do you come across a dog that seems to be up for just about anything!  Zara was abandoned at impound when her owner just decided not to pick her up.  We don't understand why because we think she is terrific!  This high energy, full of love and eager to learn girl would be ideal for an active person looking for a let's go places and do stuff kind of friend.  While she is still very young at likely around a year old she could benefit from some structure and general obedience but she seems ready to learn and a few treats in your pocket would go a long way with this pretty chocolate colored pupper.  At about 50 pounds of zeal, Zara is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.  Her adoption fee is $300.00

Additional adoption info

All interested parties must fill out an adoption application and be approved prior to adoption. If a family has currently, or in the recent past had pets then a veterinary reference is required. If not then two personal references are required. Our adoption fees for dogs range from $150-$300. Our adoption fee for cats is free will donation. After an adoption has been approved an adoption contract must be signed.

More about this shelter

The ECAS is an all volunteer, no kill shelter. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome pets in need due to neglect, abandonment, abuse or from simply not being wanted! We started in 2010 due to a need in our community. We are currently a foster based organization and we are currently building our new shelter facility. We work hand in hand with other rescue and shelters in the area to help out when and where we are needed.
