Sativa's Story

Hi, my name is Sativa, and I'm a 38-pound American Blue Heeler mix. <br/><br/>Right now, I'm a very scared and anxious girl-I tend to pace and keep my tail tucked when I'm unsure, and I get pretty shaky when I'm feeling nervous. But if you give me time and move slowly, I'll start to come closer, lean in for gentle attention, and even sneak in a few kisses to let you know I trust you. <br/><br/>I really do have an affectionate heart, it's just hard for me to show it when I'm so overwhelmed. With patience, I know my true personality will shine through, and you'll see that I'm a loving, playful companion. <br/><br/>Because of my breed, I'll likely be a fairly active pup once I settle in, and I'll need both mental and physical stimulation to keep me happy. I'm a big foodie, so treats will definitely help me build confidence and learn that new people and experiences aren't so scary. <br/><br/>I know my name, and when I'm relaxed, I'll tilt my head at funny sounds, prance around with a smile, and even play fetch-yes, I'll bring the ball back too! I'll need slow introductions, a lot of socialization, and someone who will help me come out of my shell at my own pace. If you have the patience to let me blossom, I promise to reward you with loyalty, love, and plenty of goofy, joyful moments.

Humane Society of The Black Hills's Adoption Policy
The adoption process may take up to one hour to complete but we’ll keep it as simple and streamlined as possible. Here are the steps when you’re considering adopting a pet: - Visit our website to see available animals or see them on-site during regular hours, seven days a week. - When you find a dog, cat or small animal you would like to spend more time with, simply call the Humane Society of the Black Hills at (605) 394-4170 for an appointment. - Occasionally, our team is able to accommodate walk-ins, but as we cannot guarantee them, it is best to call for an appointment. -During your scheduled appointment, an adoption advisor will review the animal's history with you and bring the animal to meet you for an initial visit. - A second appointment may be made for you for a variety of reasons (Ex. You have a dog at home you'd like to bring in to meet the pet next). -Once you have met a pet that you think is your perfect match and you have been approved to adopt, your adoption advisor will take you through the adoption process, and you can take your new family member home!
