Tansy's Story

Hello! My name is Tansy and I am a one-year old lab/herding dog mix who is a very good companion to other busy dogs. In recent months my foster mom has taken me out on many hiking adventures and I LOVE IT. I would call myself an avid hiker now and I absolutely love playing in rivers and lakes. I bond very easily with other friendly dogs and can feel more shy and timid around humans. I have a soft spot for kids and brushing is definitely the fastest way to my heart. When I sense that my foster mom is grabbing the leash for a hike, I love to chirp and whistle, but rarely ever bark. And, even though I am a very active pup, I don't jump or get too hyper. I really appreciate having a routine and am very willing to relax in my kennel when play time is over. Every day I am learning something new and love showing my foster parents the big ol' grin on my face! I am currently located in Riverton, WY, but my foster parents would find a way to get me just about anywhere for the right forever home!

Friends of Wind River Humane Society's Adoption Policy

At Friends of Wind River Humane Society, our adoption process is designed to set both dogs and adopters up for long-term success. We take the time to ensure each placement is a thoughtful match, prioritizing the well-being, safety, and happiness of every animal and family. Our adoption process includes the following steps: 1. Submission of online application by prospective adopter - this includes collecting key information such as household details, existing pets, vet references, landlord approval (if renting), and experience with animals. 2. Detailed application review by a member of our team - one of our dedicated volunteers/team members carefully reviews each application, looking for the best match for the animal’s needs. 3. Phone/virtual screening by a member of our team - one of our dedicated volunteers/team members, often from one of our foster caregivers, walk through the application questions in more detail, giving our team a solid understanding of the prospective adopter's lifestyle, expectations, experience with animals, etc. 4. "Meet and greet" with dog(s) of interest/compatibility - prospective adopters are invited to meet the animal, ideally in person if location permits or via video; if adopters have other pets and location permits, a controlled meet-and-greet might be arranged at this stage. 5. Final approval and adoption - if our team and the prospective adopter feel positive and wish to proceed following the "meet and greet, " an adoption agreement is signed and transport is arranged for the dog to their new home; depending on distance, this could include transport support provided by our organization; adopters are provided documentation of all medical history, microchip information, etc.
