Lexus's Story

Hello, my name is Lexus! I am very excited to move into my new home and keep the ball rolling with my socialization. I am a very confident and loving girl and could do well in a busier household than my sister Porsche. It is important that I join a family that has the time and patience to dedicate to my socialization and training, and who can handle my energy and excitement. I am not aggressive but still mouthy and bouncy which means I am a bit too much for small children at this point of my life. To become a well-rounded, socialized adult, it's important I have frequent and positive interactions with new people, other dogs, visits to the vet clinic and other unfamiliar environments (like friends' homes and pet stores). I am very affectionate, playful and just a bundle of pure love! MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES... CHILDREN: I could be good with older children that can help with my training but I am a bit much for small kids. OTHER DOGS: I could be good with other dogs once I have been taught proper socialization. CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident around dogs and training. FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience. Researching Belgian Malinois dogs would be a good idea. FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended. HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any with a yard preferred. SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: It would be best if someone could be home part of the day or a lunch break. SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME... ACTIVITY LEVEL: High HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes but do expect some accidents. BIRTHDAY: May 21, 2025 **I am a foster to adopt until I am spayed.** If you think I would be a good fit for you, please visit www.uppercredit.com or call us at 519-833-2287

Upper Credit Humane Society's Adoption Policy

We are thrilled you are considering adoption and our staff are eager to assist you! Our goal is to help you find your best-fit companion and provide the animals in our care with a second chance at a happy home. HOW DO I MEET THE ANIMALS? We ask that you make an appointment by calling us at 519-833-2287. Why? Some of the animals in our care are in foster homes, so if they are one of the pets you would like to meet we will coordinate the time with their foster. We also want to ensure that you have time to spend with the animal(s) you are interested in without interruption. Our shelter is small and too many visitors at once can become overwhelming for the animals. If you are interested in adopting an animal, all family members residing in the home must meet the animal prior to adoption. If you are interested in adopting a dog and already have a dog in the family, a meet-and-greet will be scheduled with the dogs to ensure their compatibility. APPLICATION PROCESS When you have decided which animal is right for you, you will complete an application form that includes questions about your family’s lifestyle, other animals that are part of your family, and the care this animal will require, such as diet, housing, veterinary care, socialization, etc. The application helps the UCHS staff determine if your expectations and lifestyle are a good match with the animal you are interested in adopting. We do accept multiple applications for animals that are in high demand e.g. puppies to ensure we place the animal in the most suitable home. DISCUSSION It is important to us that adopters find the animal that best fits them. A UCHS staff member will follow-up with the applicant(s) to learn more about them, and get a clear understanding of what they are looking for when adding an animal to their family. This is also an opportunity for applicants to ask additional questions, and receive guidance about introducing the animal to its new home. FINALIZING THE ADOPTION Once your application is approved, the adoption will be finalized in a separate visit to allow you time to prepare your home. When you take your animal home, you will be provided with an adoption kit, microchip registration information, and the medical records for your animal. A staff member will follow-up with you a week to 10 days after you take the animal home to see if how the animal is settling in. You are encouraged to phone the shelter if you have any questions or concerns within the first 2 weeks of having the animal home with you. If you have questions about our adoption process, please contact the shelter at 519-833-2287 or via email at info@uppercredit.com.
