Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications.  You must come to the shelter in person to meet the PAHS pets.Honest is an 1-year-old male Cane Corso/Black Lab mix who must be neutered before adoption. Weighing 80 pounds, he was brought in by city animal control after his owner didn’t reclaim him. Honest is as handsome as they come—black with some white markings, giving him a distinguished look. We believe he’ll grow into an extra-large adult dog. This gentle giant gets along well with both dogs and children. He has a soft spot for marshmallows and loves splashing around in the pool. Come meet this wonderful all-around dog—Honest ready for a home and family!Dog/puppy adoption fees are $120.  Cat/kitten adoption fees are $75.  All pets will be spayed/neutered before adoption; or you will be given a discount spay/neuter certificate to be used at participating vet clinics to help with the cost of spay/neuter.  Our adoption fees cover a microchip, microchip registration, deworming, vaccinations (as age and law requires), and a courtesy vet exam at participating offices.
