We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well for now please look for dogs on your coast. Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.
Shelly, came to us as a stray from Hopkinsville Humane
Shelter in Hopkinsville, KY. She was
tested and did fine with cats other dogs and older kids over 5 yrs as long as
they are respectful of animals. She takes just a little bit to warm up but when
she does she’s your buddy and wants to be where you are. She does not really
care for a crate and will kick up a fuss but we are working with her on that
and she is doing much better as time goes on. She will need another young dog
to play with as she loves to play and has lots of energy. A fenced in yard is
also required for her. She does appear housebroken but we are sure will have a
few accidents until she gets used to your schedule. Shelly is too sweet to stay
homeless long please fill out an application for her today and give her the
home she deserves.
Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our
dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them
to go by ground transport.
If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then
there will be an additional $35 fee for the Health Certificate required. THANK
YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.
