Story
Name: Bates Age: 5 years Breed: German Shepherd mix Size: Large Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Bates is a 5-year-old German Shepherd mix with a strong presence and an even bigger heart. Bates came into our care as a stray. He was adopted from us back in 2022 but unfortunately lost his way and was missing for quite some time. His previous owners had moved away and gave us the permission to be able to find him a new forever home. Loyal, attentive, and incredibly smart, he’s the kind of dog who forms deep bonds with his people and takes his role as a companion seriously. Once he knows you’re his person, you’ll have a devoted friend for life. He enjoys staying active and would love a home where he can stretch his legs, explore, and spend quality time with his family. Like many shepherds, Bates thrives when he has structure, engagement, and someone who appreciates his intelligence and loyalty. At five years old, Bates has the perfect balance of maturity and energy. He’s past the puppy chaos but still ready for adventures, making him an excellent companion for someone looking for a steady, faithful partner by their side. Bates is already neutered, up to date on vaccines, and is heartworm negative. Bates's $300 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccines, microchip AND transport fee to a location near you. We currently have transportation to CT, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, GA, and TN. Please email transport@hssm.org for more information on transports! --> If you are interested in adopting Bates please fill out our online application here: (https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 - Dog). A staff member will reach out if your application is approved to discuss the adoption process. No fenced in yard required, and YES - we adopt to families with children! The adoption will not be final until the adoption contract is discussed and signed. Transports are arranged for specific dates, typically within 1-3 weeks of approving your application. Adopters will meet at a designated meeting spot to pick up their new companions. For further information, please first fill out the application referenced above. **Due to import regulations we are not able to adopt to MA or RI residents at this time.
