RILEY is an outgoing and gorgeous 4 year old sable/white male sheltie. He's very bouncy and will benefit from participating in an obedience class with his new companion. He is completely vetted and on monthly preventatives. He would do best as an only dog or with a very submissive and/or older dog unless adopted by an experience handler because he wants to hog affection ! Although he's done very well with the children that have visited and played with, we feel it best for him to not be in a home with pre-teen aged children. I'm sure if we asked him.....a one on one relationship would be his choice.
*** PLEASE READ ***
If you want to inquire about a specific SHELTIE waiting to be matched with a perfect forever family of their own, please fill out our on-line ADOPTION APPLICATION .
PROCESS OF ADOPTION:
After we have had time to review your application and check references, we will be back in touch with you. This is a totally volunteer organization; therefore please allow at least 48 hours for us to get back with you. If at that time you have NOT gotten a reply, please e-mail us as your application may not have arrived. (ALL APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACKNOWLEDGED, WHETHER APPROVED OR NOT.)
After your submitted application has been processed, references checked and approved, a HOME VISIT will be scheduled after which time arrangements will then be discussed regarding meeting your potential new family member.
Adoption fees range from $150-$275, based on the age/adoptability of each specific dog. HOWEVER, please inquire about our SENIOR SANCTUARY PROGRAM if you are open to adopting a dog in double digit years. We believe these SPECIAL individuals and families deserve even more consideration/support and we make every effort to make these adoptions a WIN WIN for both our DOG and POTENTIAL FAMILY.
