George's Story
Meet our George!<br/><br/>George and his brother Greg were found as strays in our local park. Sadly no one ever came looking for them, so they joined our program and have been in foster care ever since. These boys are very bonded and we so hope they can be adopted together. They are very friendly and get along very well and have gotten along with other dogs they have been introduced to. Their foster even cat tested them and they didn't seem concerned about the kitties in the crate when introduced. They weigh 80ish pounds and are very strong, so they need an experienced large dog owner, as they do pull while on leash. George and Greg will be happy with a family who will give them plenty of love and care. Like all dogs, George and Greg will be happiest when they are involved with their family and their activities their whole life.<br/><br/>All of our dogs are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed or neutered, given intestinal worm treatment, heartworm, flea, and tick prevention and are microchipped prior to adoption. Our foster families do their best to begin their house training but please be patient with any puppy you adopt. It's a learning process!<br/><br/>If you are ready for the work, time, patience, expense, and commitment required to raise a puppy, we welcome your adoption application. Sending us a completed application is the very first step so be sure to do that first thing! The adoption donation is $200. All of our animals must be spayed or neutered when reaching the appropriate age. A reimbursement of $50 will be sent to the adopter once we receive the receipt from the procedure. The adoption donation also includes a discount for S.T.A.R. Puppy Kindergarten or Canine Good Citizen Class.<br/><br/>When applying for any adoption, please be aware that The Humane Society office is open Mon - Thurs from 10 - 3. We will respond to any inquiries or adoption submissions sent during non-office hours on the next day we are in the office. Thank you for your understanding!<br/><br/>Dog Adoption Guidelines:<br/><br/>You must fill out an application to be considered for adoption. You can find the application at www.ForThePets.org. Please email any questions to humanesociety@murray-ky.net.<br/><br/>It is not a first-come process; we try to match the dog with the family for a FOREVER home. We process all applications at once and take the dog off the site, placing them on adoption pending status until a decision is made. If a suitable home match is not found, the dog returns to active status.<br/><br/>The dog adoption process can take up to two weeks; we are a small group of volunteers who mostly have full-time jobs.<br/><br/>All of our dogs are indoor dogs with outdoor privileges unless otherwise specified.<br/><br/>We do not fly or ship our dogs due to heat/cold concerns and safety issues. If you are willing to fly out AND fly the dog back in the cabin (size restrictions) with you, that would be considered.<br/><br/>If you apply to adopt a dog and are chosen, you must come to Murray, KY to pick up the dog and fill out the paperwork in person.<br/><br/>We can't provide individual meet and greet sessions for each applicant. If chosen to adopt, you will have plenty of time for your family and pets to visit with the potential new family member before signing any paperwork and will not be committed to adopting if you choose not to at that time
