Elaine's Story

&#128062; Elaine Ś 3&#8209;Year&#8209;Old Husky/Shepherd Mix<br/>Elaine is a gentle, timid Husky-Shepherd mix who's looking for a safe, understanding place to land. She's a sweet girl who bonds quietly and gradually, and once she trusts you, she enjoys simple joys like a few throws of fetch, tug&#8209;of&#8209;war, and following her person around the yard.<br/><br/>Elaine is house&#8209;trained, spayed, and up to date on vaccines. She gets along well with other dogs, women, and children, and she has no bite history. She's a sensitive soul who startles at loud household noises and prefers calm, predictable environments.<br/><br/>Elaine has a history of digging under fencing and escaping, even with added barriers. Because of this, a farm or rural setting would be idealŚsomewhere she can enjoy space, structure, and supervised outdoor time without relying on traditional fencing. She responds well to kindness, learns quickly with food rewards (hot dogs are her favorite!), and comes when called after an escape.<br/><br/>Elaine is ready for a home that understands her quirks, appreciates her gentle nature, and can offer the right environment to help her thrive.<br/><br/>&#128222; Pennington County Humane Society <br/>218&#8209;681&#8209;8045

The shelter is often filled to the maximum allowed by the license.

To adopt from Pennington County Humane Society, you must be over 21 or over 18 years old with a co-signer. You must own the home where you are living or have a signed statement from your landlord permitting you to have a pet in a leased or rented home Cats must be kept indoors in city limits unless leashed and accompanied by a responsible adult. Many mobile home parks have their own rules (such as size restrictions), so please check with the park manager before attempting to adopt. Many cities have pet ordinances that must be followed. These include proper vaccinations and licensing. Some communities may restrict the number of pets allowed in each household. Be sure to check your local ordinances before attempting to adopt. All adoptions must be done by the person the pet will be living with most of the time. We do not allow pets to be adopted as gifts for other people. You may, however, pay the adoption fee for a pet, and we will provide a “gift certificate,” which allows the recipient to adopt without additional cost. To adopt, the recipient must meet the guidelines listed above. Adoption fees are non-refundable. Adoption fee for a dog- $185-$225 Adoption fee for a puppy- $250-$300 Adoption fee for a cat - $50-$150 Adoption fee for kitten- $150-$200 *We do have adoption fee specials at times.
