Courage's Story

She wasn't supposed to still be alive. Her family had made the appointment to have her euthanized, but the local vet wanted her to have second chance at life and Courage made her way to us.<br/>And our initial assessment - Courage is an absolute treasure. Can she ever be with cats or small dogs, no. But she played with some bigger dogs and had the time of her life, racing at top speed with them around the yard. She is a whippet mix, hence the speed, and six-years-old.<br/>Courage is a smidge submissive the first time she meets you - which is understandable to us. But once you hang out with her just one time, you are her friend for life. She greets you with her whole body wagging. Courage then wraps her legs around you, as if to say, thank you for taking a chance on me.<br/>Courage was excellent in the car and at our vet. She wiggled up to everyone there and crawled in many laps.<br/>We are thankful someone recognized this was not the end for Courage. And we wholeheartedly agree with them. We are confident we can find this amazing girl the perfect home - one full of love and acceptance.<br/>Please share her story - Courage is counting on all of us! She is available to meet every single day from 9am-12pm (80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton) - come see what second chances are all about.<br/>Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Animal Aid Society's Adoption Policy
We require an in-person meeting prior to processing an adoption application. If you think one of our dogs could be a good fit, come for a visit! If all goes well and you decide to pursue adoption, you may submit your adoption application. Once your family, including any dogs, have also met with the dog you wish to adopt, your application will be submitted to the Adoption Committee for review. We estimate the pre-adoption process can take up to 14 days or longer. PLEASE NOTE: AAS is committed to finding the best fit for each of our dogs. For this reason, we will accept multiple applications for a dog. In the case of multiple applications, we will select the applicant that is the best fit based on the needs of the dog. Adoption fee for puppy/adult dogs is $300.00. Adoption fee for senior dogs is $150.00. We prefer that adopters be located within 40 miles of the shelter to facilitate post adoption follow up.
