Story
Jasper Male Poodle DOB: 3/13/2021 Adoption Fee: $300 Jasper is a sweet boy that just wants to be loved and cared for. He had a really hard start to his life, and would really love to experience a home that he is safe and taken care of. With this boy, he will need some extra work to find his trust. He is looking for someone that is calm and can give him patience with his nervousness around people given his past. With proper socialization and time, this boy will be such a happy boy that will blossom into the amazing dog he is. Could you be that person that shows Jasper there are good people out there? Please give this boy a chance, he deserves to be spoiled and loved for the rest of his life!Please read the animal bios completely before requesting additional information as we do our best to answer the most frequently ask questions in these bios. In order to adopt one of our animals an application must be submitted and approved. You can find these applications by going to http://humanemorgan.org/index.php?page=adoption ABOUT ADOPTING FROM THE HSMC: The shelter address is 1170 Fairground Rd. Madison, GA 30650. For more information on any of our pets, please feel free to email us at INFO@HUMANEMORGAN.ORG give us a call at 706-343-9977. All dogs are heartworm negative, current on vaccines/dewormings, and microchipped. All cats are current on vaccines/deworming, and microchipped. We are open 12pm-5pm Sunday-Friday and 10 am-5pm on Saturday, we schedule our last adoption at 4pm everyday to allow our staff enough time to feed and walk dogs. We are an animal shelter and therefore are not able to individually potty train our residents. Many adult dogs do arrive “house broken” however due to animal behavior any change in environment will make an emotional impact on the animals and therefore initiate unwanted behaviors during the acclamation period. Please keep this in mind. Puppies do not have the biological maturity to maintain absolute bladder or bowel control and will require a certain degree of potty training and house breaking. Please consider the time and commitment it takes to provide the necessary building blocks for these special babies, prior to submitting your application. If you have any questions please email us at info@humanemorgan.org and provide name of the animal you are interested in, in the subject line. Thank you, HSMC Staff ADOPTION FEES Adoption Fees may change without notice. Always verify the fee when finalizing the adoption. ~ Cats and Kittens ~ * Under 1 Year = $150* 1-8 Years = $100* Over 8 Years = $75** Purebred cats and kittens may be subject to special pricing ~ Mix Breed Dogs ~ * Under 1 Year = $225 * 1 -8 Years = $200 * Over 8 Years = $150~ Purebred and Designer Breed Dogs ~ * Under 1 Year = $300 * 1-8 Years = $300 * Over 8 Years = $150 ~ Medical and Special Needs ~ We have rescued dogs and cats which require additional medical care or that have special needs which are not life threatening.

Story
Meet Sophie! Sophie is a precious 7-year-old Maltese/Yorkie mix who is looking for a loving forever home through Furkids. This sweet girl may be small, but she has plenty of personality and love to share! Sophie has lived with other dogs in the past and is house trained and crate trained. She loves to run and play, making her a fun companion for an active family, but she is also a true lap dog at heart. After playtime, Sophie is happiest curled up beside her people... and she especially loves sleeping with them at night. Sophie can be protective of her home, so she will do best with a family who understands her need to feel safe and secure and can help her settle into her new surroundings with patience and reassurance. She is fearful in new settings. Sophie is not housetrained and does not like going outside on a leash, therefore she will require a home with a fenced yard. Sophie’s Details: • 7 years old • Maltese/Yorkie mix • Has lived with other dogs • Loves to run and play • Enjoys cuddling in laps • Loves sleeping with her people • Can be protective of her home Sophie’s adoption fee is $315, and adopters must be at least 21 years old.

Story
Meet Rio! Rio is a handsome 3-year-old Poodle Maltese mix with a big personality and plenty of love to give! This adorable boy is full of energy and excitement, and he’s always ready to be right by your side. Rio is housetrained and does well on leash, making him a great companion for walks, adventures, and an active lifestyle. He loves attention and may happily jump right into your lap for some extra affection! His playful, energetic nature means he would thrive in an active home where he can get plenty of exercise, playtime, and interaction. Rio is protective of his human's food and can be very reactive when you try to move him during these moments. Because of his preferences, Rio is not recommended for a home with small children. He is recommended in a home with very experienced dog owners that have had prior experience with dogs that resource guard. If you’re looking for an energetic companion who will keep you smiling and happily join you on your adventures, Rio may be the one for you! Come meet Rio and see if this lovable boy is the missing piece to your family! If you’re interested in adopting Rio, please apply at furkids.org. His adoption fee is $315, and adopters must be at least 21 years old.
