My story

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

New Year, New Beginnings!
A huge thanks to our partners at Best Friends Animal Society for sponsoring this animals adoption fee! Helping us place more cats and dogs into loving homes this season!

**Adoption visits are by appointment only** If you see an animal you`re interested in, fill out an adoption questionnaire on our website https://everettwa.gov/161/Adopt-a-Pet

Meet Rusty!
Rusty is a 45-pound Husky with a golden coat and an even bolder personality. She’s the golden girl who refuses to act her age; full of spunk, attitude, and charm. Rusty knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to tell you (or the other dogs). She’s the queen bee of the pack, a little bossy but endlessly lovable. If you’re looking for a confident, spirited companion who will rule your heart and your home, Rusty is ready to take the throne!

Wandering Rover Report: *note that Rusty is a female dog
He seems pretty tolerant but will communicate in dog language if he`d rather not. He walked on the sidewalk but his ears went back with loud traffic. A little break from sniffing along and he `sneezed.` Pretty much just rolled his eyes and waited to continue, he was fine with changing direction with just a little oomph.
Rusty is motivated by the freedom to sniff. He is very much a dog who needs a secure fence and would be delighted by his very own dig box I`m sure. He will lead the way but stops and slows down easily. Given the time to bond with his person and get comfortable, Rusty would warm up. He didn`t bark once - not at sirens or anything. He was very aware of his surroundings, continuing our walk after passing a small dog and a man alone. He is agile and confident on different surfaces. He does great getting in the car and going for car rides, he just wants to gaze outside or sleep.

Additional adoption info

We've got awesome dogs, cats and other critters waiting for new families to come and adopt! The adoption process begins online, and all adoptions are done by appointment only. To reduce the animals' overall stress levels, we have decided to limit animal viewing to those people with appointments for specific animals.

How it works:

1. Check out our available animals online. If you see an animal you’re interested in, fill out that species adoption questionnaire at https://www.everettwa.gov/161/Adopt-a-Pet to start the adoption process. Please be sure to include the name of the animal that you are interested in adopting. Questionnaires will only be reviewed if a specific animal is identified. You aren't obligated to adopt that pet, but it's a place to start.

2. Our staff will review your questionnaire and contact you to discuss the adoption. Please note that it often takes several days before you are contacted. We appreciate your patience! (If it has been longer than one week and you haven’t heard from us, please email us.)

3. Most animals will be available to go home the same day as the adoption meeting.

Adoptions by Appointment
Our shelter is currently closed for general animal viewing, but we’ve still got awesome dogs, cats and other critters waiting for new families to come and adopt them. To help keep our staff, volunteers and community healthy, we are now providing adoptions by appointment. This enables us to comply with social distancing guidelines while still finding loving homes for the pets in our care.
