Story
Meet Phoenix, he is beautiful 3 year old house hippo that doesn't mind dressing up in Rubber Ducky pajamas. Phoenix recently lost his home, no fault of his own however this has left him interviewing new humans. He is house trained, crate trained, good with kids and other dogs. He will walk on a leash but is strong in the beginning pulling, but eventually settles in. He does fine being left for 8 hours while his foster mom works and keeps his crate clean. He is too interested in cats, so we are looking for a home with no cats or small animals. Because of his blocky headed breed, we will require you to own your home, no rentals as we don't want him to wind up homeless again. Phoenix's $300 adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, heartworm test and prevention, flea/tick prevention, and microchip registration. You can apply at  https://gfrpets.org/apply/adoptdog/ ##984173##

Story
Tauro is doing very well in his foster home! His foster mom says: "If you're looking for a dog to give you as much affection as you could want, look no further! Tauro is hands down the most loving dog we've ever met. We have zero complaints about Tauro; he gives kisses constantly, is a professional cuddler, walks well on a leash, and has a huge personality. This boy is funny and after over 200 days in the shelter he deserves someone who will happily accept the love he has to give. He gets 2 types of seizure medications and takes them with food wonderfully, no pill pocket or convincing needed. Don't let his well managed condition prevent him from having a home."This smile and personality is an overall win! Tauro is on seizure medication that has been well managed while here at the shelter, and in foster. He'll be an excellent companion. Apply today!

Story
Hi my name is Lilly! I am a professional lap dog and love to cuddle but I am also down for a play session when you get home. I am a thrill seeker and a go-getter when it comes to playing with new toys. I do have to say, I don't chew on anything but my own toys. I am fully potty trained and crate trained. I already know some tricks, and I really do enjoy learning new ones for treats! I love long walks and I walk well on leash. My foster doesn't have a fence and takes me for plenty walks! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile. After we review your completed survey we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. We're primarily a volunteer organization, so we appreciate your patience. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sundays and Mondays and will not be processing any applications on that day. Do get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). Counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and leash to pick up. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart: Park in the PetSmart Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. PCH supports a 21-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we are not able to provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!
