Kristoph's Story

Meet Kristoph ❄️<br/>At just 10 months old and 65 pounds, Kristoph should be discovering the joy of the holidays--not trying to make sense of shelter life.

He's quickly become a staff favorite--loving, gentle, and well-behaved. He keeps a clean kennel, adores stuffed toys, and once he feels comfortable, his affectionate personality comes through beautifully. Kristoph has previously lived with kids, cats, and other dogs without concern, making him a wonderful candidate for many types of homes.<br/><br/>What Kristoph needs most is someone patient and understanding--someone willing to give him time, reassurance, and a calm place to land. With trust and consistency, this sweet boy will thrive.<br/><br/>Kristoph is ready for a home for the holidays... and a future filled with love.Give us a call at (304) 387-4102 for more information!<br/><br/>ADOPTION APPLICATION:<br/>All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.<br/><br/>FOSTER APPLICATION:<br/>Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need? <br/>Apply online to become a Foster Care Volunteer today! <br/>https://jchsfoundation.com/FosterApplication<br/><br/>Please keep in mind that this page is managed by volunteers and may not be completely up to date at all times.

Hancock County Animal Shelter's Adoption Policy
ADOPTING AN ANIMAL Adopting a shelter animal is one of the most rewarding things you can do.  The dog or cat will pay you back  with unlimited unconditional love and will provide many hours of devoted companionship. Studies also prove that owning an animal has many health benefits such as soothing stress and lowering blood pressure. Just keep in mind that taking an animal into your home is a commitment for the lifetime of that animal.  A dog can live up to 16 years or more; a cat even longer. You will need to think about that animal's veterinary care, feeding, exercise, and general well being.  To adopt from our shelter, you must fill out an application with references and veterinarian.  In some instances, you may be asked to fill out a pre-adoption form.  Upon approval, you may adopt. We do not hold animals.  Adoptions are on a first come basis. We reserve the right to refuse.
