Gwen Vizsla & Coonhound Mix Sautee Nacoochee, GA

Posted Apr 11, 2018. Gwen came to us 5 months ago from Animal Control where she had been picked up as a stray. There has not been much interest in this gentle hound though she did recently have a 2 week adoption from which she was returned. Gwen has keen critical thinking skills and had assessed how to left the gate lock, thus escaping the fenced yard. Staff at our shelter already knew of Gwen's ability to let herself out of her kennel and had shared that information but... Clearly, this is a very intelligent girl who will take well to training which would make for an ideal companion, outreach or service companion. Gwen has a loving personality and enjoys the companionship of people and dogs. Her adoption fee is $100. More photos in Comments below.

Application can be submitted at: https://www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/page/dog-adoption-application/ or at the shelter. Adoption of all dogs/cats requires an approval process to ensure that they are going into a home appropriate for their needs and that will keep them safe. That process can take from 1 to 3 days. Each is loved and nurtured by our staff and volunteers during their stay with us and each is placed with same due diligence that they would be given if they were our own family members. Adoption policies and application procedures are at the shelter website: http://smithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable Animals. All approved adopters must accompany their new family member on the journey home. We do not ship nor transport.
