DHS does not have a facility. All of our animals are housed in foster homes. Therefore, we require having a completed adoption application on file before we ask our foster families to rearrange their schedules for a meet and greet or answer individual inquiries. And, please be patient, we are staffed only by volunteers. It may be a few days before you hear from us.
Peanut is about a 9 month old Cairn Terrier mix. He is neutered and fully vetted. He is a little lovebug but initially, when he meets someone new or is in a new place, he will act fierce and growl. It is all an act. In about an hour, once he trusts you, he will be in your lap and fine. We don't know what happened in his life to make him fear new situations but we have put him in 4 different foster homes and it is always the same. Once he trusts you, he is perfect. House trained. Loves his crate and loves his family.

All of our adoptable pets are housed with foster families. When age appropriate, they have been spay/neutered, crate, leash and house trained. They have all been living in a family environment so have been evaluated for temperament and personality. We believe that we should know each pet well enough to make sure that when adopted, everyone lives happily ever after. Since all of our animals are housed with fosters, we ask that you submit a completed application before we answer individual inquiries. Submitting an application never obligates you to adopt but we will have a better understanding of your needs so that we can better answer your questions.
