My personality

My story

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

Garland, an 9-month-old 50-pound female Transylvania Hound mix, came in as an owner surrender, along with her sister Twinkle. She is not fixed yet. Both girls entered the shelter in so much fear that they were paralyzed when away from each other. Since spending more time with staff, they have absolutely blossomed and have become social and friendly towards everyone. They still get a little afraid when they feel trapped or when someone moves too quickly around them, but they are getting better at this.

Both girls only know the life of a farm and have never experienced different social environments. They will both probably always be more comfortable in a farm environment. They were allowed to free roam, however, it was reported by a neighbor that they may have both been the culprit to a recent chicken heist, but no definitive proof in this accusation. They both have experience living with ducks, pigs and horses. It is not a requirement both Garland and Twinkle are adopted together, but they could be.

The $100 adoption fee is SPONSORED. The adopter will be responsible to have the animal spayed or neutered within 90 days at the clinic of their choosing. If this is completed within the required 90 days the adopter is to submit required documentation that includes a spay/neuter certificate, a receipt for the spay/neuter, and a rabies certificate to get their refund of up to the deposited amount. Spay and Neuter is required for adoption per our adoption contract and by Indiana State Law.

We do not require in most cases that adopters bring all their families members and dogs for a meet and greet. But we do highly encourage it. We are happy to introduce the new dog to your dog(s) at the shelter. No appointment necessary.

We do offer home trials of dogs over 6 months of age for about a week. You will not need to pay the adoption fee (spay neuter deposit) ahead of time, but if you decide to adopt you will need to return to the shelter to complete the paperwork and pay the adoption deposit. If you do not wish to complete the adoption, you can bring the dog back at any time during normal business hours during your home trial period.
