Gertie's Story

Looking for a compact older gal with lots of spunk and personality? Gertie is your girl! Gertie was found wandering, completely blind with severe diarrhea and she was working on the world record for longest pup nails! Gertie adores everyone she meets. She may be blind but her sniffer leads her right to her people AND pup friends. Gertie girl is very smart and learns her surroundings quickly. Quiet as a mouse in a condo, Gertie spends her time alone snoring (to keep intruders away from the home of course!) and is happy to greet you with lots of hops when you return!

Stray Animal Adoption Program's Adoption Policy
The Adoption Process SAAP asks for a minimum donation at the time of the adoption. This request is always $300 or less (usually $150 – $250). We are required to collect sales tax on adoptions in the state of Kentucky. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept credit/debit cards. Cash or check is readily accepted. All adoptable pets are spayed/neutered, micro chipped, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea and tick medication applied, and ready to go home with you when you meet them. We ask that you submit an adoption application. We will review and approve/deny your application in a timely manner. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a “Meet and Greet” appointment. Often times this is scheduled at the start of one of our regular adoption events. Frequently, we can make arrangements to meet at times/dates other than our usual events. At the “Meet and Greet” you will have time to make the final decision as to whether you wish to adopt the pet. If indeed you do make the decision to adopt the pet, there is a basic pet adoption contract to complete. The SAAP personnel that is assisting with your pet adoption will be happy to review the contract with you. SAAP does promote life long adoptions. In the unforeseen instance that you must surrender the pet, you must return the pet to SAAP. It is unfortunate, but we cannot return your adoption donation. Copyright 2014-2021 Kreyling Creative LL
