Shawn is from the Mountain Litter — a group of 10 adorable puppies rescued from a high-kill shelter in Georgia. Shawn was adopted this past summer, but was recently returned due to his owners going through a divorce and being unable to keep him in their new living situation. Through no fault of his own, he is once again looking for a loving home.
Now about 6 months old, Shawn is a super cute, happy, and friendly Mountain Cur mix who gets along with everyone he meets. He’s social, affectionate, and loves being part of the action — whether that’s playing with toys, exploring his surroundings, or soaking up attention from his people. He has an easygoing, joyful personality and brings plenty of tail wags and smiles wherever he goes.
Shawn has already experienced life in a home and understands the basics of being a family dog, but like any young dog, he will benefit from continued training and consistency. He’s eager to learn and would thrive with a family willing to help him continue growing into a well-mannered companion.

ADOPTION PROCESS:
1.) Apply: Fill out adoption application completely and submit all necessary documents.
2.)Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
3.)Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: after approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5 day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure its the right fit.
4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
