Claire's Story

Claire and three other dogs were relinquished to us by their owners. Claire is very shy still, but she does enjoy sitting with us or a volunteer! She is gentle, calm, and overall pretty quiet! She's an older lady, but she has some spunk left and likes to tell us when she wants attention! Claire finds a lot of comfort in her kennel mates, and would likely do best in a home with another dog! Due to her small size and shyness, Claire would likely prefer a home with no kids or kids older than 12. Claire is a sweet 11-year-old Maltese! Claire is not yet spayed, but is scheduled to be! We are taking applications now, and hope to match her with her perfect person by the time she is spayed and ready to go! Every dog adopted from Green Hills Animal Shelter is fixed, wormed, has age-appropriate vaccinations, and is tested for heartworm (if old enough). Dogs from GHAS will also come with a starter bag of Hills Science Diet dog/puppy food to get you started!

Green Hills Animal Shelter's Adoption Policy

We are seeking a permanent, loving, responsible home for all companion animals. So that we may be assured that the animal you wish to adopt is best suited to you, your home, and your lifestyle and is placed in an environment that is compatible with his/her needs, we ask that you complete an application. Please note we have two separate applications, one for cats and one for dogs. In order for you to adopt an animal, we need you to . . . - Be sure that you are financially able to provide for the animal’s needs. This includes food, supplies, license and veterinary care. - Be sure that you have adequate time to spend with your new pet, including training, exercising and grooming. - Have your landlord's permission to bring an animal into his/her property. - Have the consent of all adults in your household. - Be at least 18 years of age and have verifiable identification. - Complete an application in full and discuss it with a GHAS employee. - Understand that this is an adoption, not a sale. GHAS reserves the right to postpone or refuse an adoption. - Be sure that you are prepared for potentially many years with your new pet. - Be sure that you are aware of the responsibilities as a pet owner to provide a safe, healthy, and loving home! - Agree to bring the animal back to GHAS in the event you cannot continue to care for him/her.
