My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kyle is a special guy and our longest term canine resident. Every so often, we get a dog that just doesn't quite conform to the typical canine ways. Perhaps they would prefer to be cats, or don't really know how to speak dog. Maybe they are introverts and wish they weren't expected to be quite so social all the time. Whatever the case may be, Kyle is one of those pooches. He can be somewhat feline in the way he behaves; he would like to be petted on his terms, and he would like to do his own thing in the yard, and he has his favorites when it comes to people. However, Kyle also has many wonderful qualities. He is incredibly affectionate with his people, wanting to give kisses and sit in their laps. He makes some very funny noises, often sounding like the grouchy old man he is on the inside. He is housetrained and always potties right away when he goes outside. He is quite smart and quick to offer a paw in exchange for a treat. Except...it better be the kind he likes, or he'll spit it out. He is doing his best to learn about How to Be a Dog and is currently in a foster home with another male dog. He's not terribly playful, though he'll trot around now and then or paw to say hello. Kyle would be best in a home without cats or children.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please come in and visit with our pets available for adoption. Once you find an animal you would like to adopt, you will be asked to fill out an adoption survey and meet with an adoption counselor. We do require landlord approval and we do not adopt out animals to live completely outside. Our adoption fees are $75 for dogs and cats under 5 years old and $55 for those 5 years and older.

Go meet their pets

To visit pets please go to http://bloomington.in.gov/animal-shelter to fill out an adoption application and schedule a visit. You can find out more information about adoption events and specials at https://www.facebook.com/COBAnimalShelter.
