Velma's Story

Meet Velma, a senior adult female pitty mix looking for her forever home! Velma is a sweet and loving older girl, who would love a home where she can nap on the couch and sleep in a bed. She enjoys walks and does great in her harness. She is dog selective (she can have dog friends, but is picky about new dogs, seeing unfamiliar dogs when she is on leash can be stressful, she doesn’t appreciate some dog personalities or styles of play). She would need proper introductions and a parent who can provide positive guidance and understands her needs and wants with dog interactions. Mostly she would prefer her human’s love and affection! Cats can be too interesting for her, so she would do best in a cat-free home. She is smart and knows basic commands. If you are looking for a love dog and want a cuddle buddy, Velma would love to be your girl. If you are interested in adopting, fill out a questionnaire here! https://www.floydhumanesociety.org/forms

Floyd County Humane Society's Adoption Policy

The Floyd County Humane Society reserves the right to deny any application on a companion animal for any reason. The applicant will always be informed as to why they were denied. Denying an application is not a personal attack on the applicant, in many cases, the denial is because we, at the Humane Society, do not feel that the animal and family will be a good match. This does not mean that the applicant would certainly be denied in the future. Some of the reasons the applicant may be denied: bad vet or personal references, lying on the application, refusing a home check, past history of returning/rehoming animals, or inadequate supervision. In some cases, we receive two applications on the same animal. In this case, it is up to the discretion of the Humane Society to decide which family would be the best fit for the animal. The Floyd County Humane Society is staffed solely by volunteers. The application process can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on how soon references can be reached and if there are any concerns about the application. Unfortunately, some applications are denied, but it is done in the best interest of the animal. If there are any questions or concerns as to why an application was denied, the applicant can reach out to the contact person or email the Society.
