Andy **IN FOSTER**'s Story

Hi, I'm Andy!<br/>Back in June, I was found in a single house with 134 other dogs. Thirteen of us were then brought to Big Lake Humane Society as part of a nationwide rescue effort led by Animal Rescue Corps. Because of the conditions we endured in that situation, we do not know what it's like to be a companion dog. Now that we are safe and carefully looked after by loving people with lots of patience, we are slowly learning to relax into a better way of life for ourselves as companion dogs. We desperately needed this chance to shine.<br/><br/>I like other dogs, and am respectful of them. I would do best with a dog friend in the home to mentor me in the "Ways of Dogging with Humans" as I am accustomed to being around other dogs. They will be able to help me learn basics, like walking on leash, going outside and help me understand my new human family<br/><br/>Anyone interested in me, needs to understand, I am a flight risk, and not great on leash yet. A fenced-in yard is a must for me as well as a preparedness to handle my tendencies to bolt. <br/><br/>I am looking for some one who knows that good things come to those who wait. With time, patience and love, I will be the best little Furiend you ever had!<br/><br/>If you're interested in adopting me, please submit an application at https://biglakehumane.org/adoption-process-application/<br/><br/>****Please note that some other pet adoption sites may not update their listings promptly after an animal is adopted, or they might not reflect new intakes, all animals in our care, or updates to each animal's bio.

Big Lake Humane Society's Adoption Policy
Adoption Process You must be 21 years or older to adopt. Please bring a valid form of I.D. We generally do not do same-day adoptions. Please plan a visit to the shelter to work with our adoption counselor and pick out an animal that best fits your lifestyle. All members of the household must visit with the potential new family member before the adoption is finalized. We want to make sure it's a good fit for everyone! If you are planning on adopting a dog and already have an existing dog, we ask that you leave them at home during your first visit. Once you've picked out a dog you'd like to adopt, you can schedule an appointment with an adoption counselor to bring your dog to the shelter to meet your potential new pet. This is not necessary for cats. We then ask that you fill out our adoption application and allow 24-72 hours to process and approve your application. Renters must provide a copy of their lease (including pet policy). We require a Veterinary reference for adopters who currently or recently had a pet. If you do not have any pets or have not had one recently, we do ask that you put a deposit at a Veterinary clinic (of your choice) to cover the cost for your first visit. After you are approved we schedule an appointment to return to the shelter to finalize your adoption. If at any time you are unable to keep the pet or offer it proper care, we ask that you bring it back to the shelter before alternate arrangements are made. Multiple applications can be submitted for the same animal; adoptions are not decided on a first come basis. Our adoption committee looks at each application in order to decide the best home for the animal. Our mission is to give each of our animals the best environment for their personality, in order to ensure they have this home forever. Applications may be denied for any reason. We reserve the right to deny adoptions to people who have surrendered their animals in the past. Our adoptions include: Feline: Spay/Neuter, Rabies (based on age), Distemper, Deworming, Flea/Tick treatment, preventative, FIV/FELV test for stray intake, and Microchip. Canine: Spay/Neuter, Rabies (based on age), Distemper, Bordetella, Deworming, Flea/tick treatment and preventative, Heartworm test, ProHeart 6 Heartworm Prevention (age appropriate) and Microchip. Adoption Fees: $100 for Cats, $ 50 for seniors 8 years and up, $150 for Kittens (2nd for $50), $300 for Dogs, $ 100 for seniors 8 years and up, and $350 for Puppies 6 months & younger. SENIOR TO SENIOR Adoption Program: 65+ humans qualify for a free senior cat adoption or a $50 senior dog adoption.
