Hounds. It seems like there are so many of them, everywhere. It seems like they all do the same thing - just eager to find things, smell things, bury things and run around with each other.
But, every once in awhile, one hound stands apart from the others. He is different, he is soulful, he is quietly loving and it feels like he can look right through you.
That's Creedence (aka CCR). He will look at you and watch you as if he knows you have something so important to tell him. He even leans in and just waits. What he is actually doing at that moment is stealing your heart.
Creedence has won our shelter lottery in that he now has our most favorite British lady coming weekly to read Peter Rabbit to him. And what was once so foreign to Creedence - a soft bed inside a warm room with someone to love him - is now a part of his life.
Creedence is five-years-old and comes to us from Isle of Wight. He is loving and playful as much as he is cuddly and sweet. He is a fast learner and realizes people love him and only want the best for him.
He is a joy to have at our shelter and we cannot wait to find him his perfect family. Creedence deserves to live the rest of his life knowing he is loved and adored and safe. If you want to meet the most perfect, soulful hound - his name is Creedence and he is at Animal Aid. Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!
PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Additional adoption info
If all goes well and you decide to pursue adoption, you will be asked to complete a pre-adopt. Once your family, including any dogs, have also met with the dog you wish to adopt, your application will be submitted to the Adoption Committee for review. We estimate the pre-adoption process can take up to 14 days or longer.
Please note: AAS is committed to finding the best fit for each of our dogs. For this reason, we will accept multiple applications for a dog. In the case of multiple applications, we will select the applicant that is the best fit based on the needs of the dog.
Adoption fee for puppy/adult dogs is $300.00.
Adoption fee for senior dogs is $150.00.
Dogs qualify as a senior based on their stature/weight and age. The scale below shows the age at which a dog attains “senior” designation:
0-20 lbs: 11 years
21-50: 10 years
51-90: 8 years
91+: 7 years
