My story

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

Throwing your arms around Nero’s neck is like hugging a cloud! Nero, a Charmin soft, 7-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog who weighs in the 60 lb. range is neutered, up to date on his shots, and housebroken. Nero was initially surrendered to the shelter when his family moved to Texas. Aside from his plush coat and sea blue eyes, this strikingly handsome fellow is unique among shelter dogs because Nero is deaf. Nero can startle easily if you surprise him from behind (understandable because he can’t hear you coming), so Nero is looking for a quiet, calm home without children or cats. Living since birth in a world of silence, Nero has learned to “read” faces and body language. This smart, sensitive dude would be a whiz at training with a vibrating or “paging” collar. One look into Nero’s eyes is all it takes to see the gentle wisdom of this precious soul. In the animal rescue world, we know there are adopters reading this description who have experienced firsthand the joy of loving a special needs animal. Perhaps you just discovered Nero on our website and now can’t stop thinking about him. Let us nudge you gently. Please reach out to us. Meanwhile, even though he has every reason to feel down and out as a homeless dog, Nero “rocks” in his exuberance for life, frolicking in the big back yard, smiling big and sniffing enthusiastically when he walks on leash, greeting visitors at his kennel gate, and curling up with a sigh on his dog cot at the end of the day. If you’re wondering how you can play a lead role in the “happily ever after” ending to Nero’s story, please contact Tri-County Animal Rescue Center on Facebook, or call 814-918-2032, or email: contactus@Tricounty-arc.org

Additional adoption info

Our dog adoption fee is $125 and we require either a spay/neuter deposit of $50 or a certificate for spay/neuter at our vet may be purchased for $100 (unless already spayed/neutered which would change the adoption fee) if the option of the $50 deposit is chosen, it will be returned after proof of the surgery.
Our cat adoption fee is $75 for kittens and $35 for adult cats. The cat adoption fee includes spay or neuter costs. All cats and dogs receive a wellness check and are current on all vaccinations appropriate for their age.

The adoption process includes filling out an adoption application and providing references. Any current pets in the household must be spayed or neutered (unless not recommended by a veterinarian for health reasons) and current on vaccinations. If adopting a cat/kitten you must agree to not have it declawed.
If living in a rental property, we must obtain permission from the landlord before an adoption can be approved. The dog or cat will be placed with the potential adopter that best matches the needs of the animal.
