Bacon's Story

Meet Bacon.<br/><br/>She came to us after living with little to no human interaction, so the world as we know it is completely new to her. The sights, sounds, and routines of home life are all big, scary firsts. In fact, this is her very first time living inside. Because of her past, Bacon is extremely shy and cautious. <br/><br/>Bacon has already started to show us what's possible. She has formed a bond with one of her caregivers and is beginning to learn that humans can be safe and trustworthy. She has also made progress with handling, and her trusted caregiver is now able to take her outside for very short walks. <br/><br/>Bacon will require a home with a secure, physically fenced yard and a calm environment with minimal chaos. She would do best going home with another dog to help her learn how to "dog" and gain confidence.<br/><br/>Bacon isn't looking for perfection; she's looking for patience. If you have a big heart for a dog who just needs someone to believe in her, Bacon might be waiting for you.<br/><br/>Adoption fee sponsored by: Just a Girl Who Loves Dogs

Elmbrook Humane Society's Adoption Policy
If you would like to adopt an animal in our care, the first step is to complete our adoption application. Applications can be filled out online or in person and are reviewed same-day (as long as they are received during business hours). We are open for viewing from 1-6pm every day*. While there is no appointment needed to walk through the shelter and view all of the animals, appointments will be required to meet and/or adopt. Appointments can be made same-day when available or scheduled up to a week in advance with an approved application. Operating by appointment allows us to provide the best possible care for the animals and service to you. We encourage all family members in the household to meet the adoptable animal prior to adoption (this may be required for certain animals). If you are adopting a dog and have another dog in your household, we encourage you bring in your dog to meet their potential new companion (this may be required for certain dogs). *The shelter is closed on holidays and the last day of every month. **Beginning in 2026, the shelter will be closed on the last Tuesday of every month.
