Story
Scooter **Dog Selective but has had some yard buddies** *VERY wary of men. Would most likely do best in a quiet, woman home. Scooter is what we call a project dog. We here at the shelter adore him, because we have formed a bond with him so he trusts us. This is NOT a dog you take home day one. We don't know his full background but we know at some point something happened to make him wary of new people, especially men. He is very loving and goofy once he trusts you. We would love to see him get out of the shelter because we feel he would be an amazing dog once in a home. He is active so a fenced in yard would be amazing for him to run in. But he also would curl up beside you while you read a book or watch a movie as well. He has been here 238 days and counting.

Story
Transformation Thursday! Introducing CoCo! He was a surrender to Animal Control in early October, and we had space to pull him. We wanted to start working on that skin condition because we know he had to be miserable. Once month's worth of medicated baths and mousse, oral medications and a Nexgard, and a good sensitive skin food have done wonders for this guy. He still has a ways to go - but he is much healthier and happier now! He is around 4 years old and close to 60 lbs. He is not neutered yet (skin was too irritated) but he will be in accordance with state law, and he will get microchipped and rabies vaccine then as well. He is up to date on his other yearly vaccinations and dewormer. He was 4DX tested and was negative for all the tick and heartworm diseases. We have not tested him with other animals yet - and he does need some obedience work. But he is a happy go lucky guy that would love to join you in your home. Here is the link to apply: https://www.hshcwv.org/adopt.html And if you would like to help support the food he is on - bags can be sent to 2450 Saltwell Rd Shinnston, WV 26431. We will drop the kind he is on in the comments below It is Purina One Sensitive Skin.

Story
***Out-of-Town Pet*** Miyuki is currently in Crosby TX but is available to be transported to her forever home! Meet Miyuki, your future furry friend! This adorable pure white pit bull mix is full of love and personality. At around 2 years old, she’s just recently been spayed. You can tell she might have been used for breeding before, as her teats hang a bit low, but don’t worry—we're confident they will return to normal as she continues to grow. Miyuki is in great health and has tested negative for heartworms, making her a wonderful companion for years to come. When it comes to playtime, this sweet girl loves to have fun but prefers it to be on the calmer side. She knows how to speak up for herself and will gently let other dogs know when she needs a break. She also has a bit of a curious streak when it comes to cats! She’s very interested in them, though it’s hard to say if she wants to chase them or just play. Around people, Miyuki is such a relaxed and easygoing girl. She loves nothing more than to lounge around the house or take leisurely walks, enjoying her surroundings at her own pace. We think Miyuki would do best in a home with someone who has experience with pit bulls. She’s a strong girl with a little stubbornness, which means she might need some training with basic commands. The good news is that she seems pretty smart, so we’re sure she’ll pick things up quickly with a little patience and love! One delightful aspect about Miyuki is her pure white coat, which led us to worry about potential deafness; however, we are relieved to report that she is not deaf! If you’re interested in giving this sweet girl a loving forever home, please fill out the form below. Thank you for considering making Miyuki a part of your life! https://form.jotform.com/241765023842152 As part of our adoption process, we are committed to ensuring that this is the perfect match for both you and the animal. Finding your forever best friend is our priority, and we appreciate your trust in us to facilitate this important decision. When introducing other animals in your home, we strongly recommend a thoughtful and gradual approach with all of our rescues. Keep in mind that not all dogs will get along. They have their own preferences, just like people do. The same goes for interactions with children; it's crucial to prevent overwhelming the adopted animal during the first meetings. Take the time you need to assess how they interact. Please be aware that all adoption fees are classified as donations to support our mission and organization. If the dog is returned for any reason, the donation will not be refunded, as we will incur costs for their transportation back to us. Thank you for your understanding and for making a difference in the life of a rescue animal!
