This is Rosie, 8 yrs old. < Cue sad music > I’m just an old girl looking for a new home, and this is how you see me most of the time, lying around. My human mom died and I was surrendered to the shelter because her family couldn’t keep me. I have all the hip problems, hearing loss and beauty marks that come with age. I’ve been the perfect girl at my foster home. They have a little dog that tries to be mean to me, and I don’t give her the time of day (even when she nipped at my face). I’m housetrained and stand at the back door to let them know I want out and give them a” woof” when I’m ready to come in. I would use their doggie door, but it’s too small for me. I like to nap in their backyard or on the shaded porch. I’m quiet, sweet, calm and don’t jump on the furniture (because my hips won’t let me!). Although I’m nearly deaf, I’m alert. I watch all their moves and follow them just in case they’re going to do something that might be interesting to me. I’m only able to do short walks and get excited when I see the leash. There are so many good things to see and smell “out there!” My fosters say I’d be the perfect girl for someone who works from home because I’m such a good companion and not a pest. I could get along with or without another dog, but I’d prefer if they were willing to share their humans. They did notice that I can’t have a regular dog bed because I will pull all the stuffing out, so I’ve been sleeping in a wicker bed with a rug and doggie blankets. I’m just a 60 pound hunk of love looking for a soft place to spend my golden years! Give me a chance to prove it!
If you are interested in adopting from the City of Georgetown Animal Shelter, please fill out an application at https://records.georgetown.org/Forms/AdoptApp . Approved applicants will be contacted to schedule an appointment to meet available dogs and cats. Please contact the shelter with any additional questions
The application/screening process for potential adopters usually takes about 24 hours except when it falls over a weekend or holiday, and then it may take two or three days. We ask that potential adopters please be patient with us; we are only trying our best to ensure that the homeless pets in our care get the best possible home. All cats and dogs adopted from our shelter are spayed or neutered (as Texas law mandates).
Our adoption fee is currently $70 for non-residents and $75 for residents*.
The adoption fee includes:
spaying/neutering
vaccinations (appropriate to species and age)
heartworm or feline leukemia test (appropriate to species and age)
de-worming medication
microchip (a tiny ID tag inserted under the skin, which allows your pet to be returned to you quickly)
There is a $5 Pet License fee added to the adoption fee if the adopter lives inside the City Limits of Georgetown.
Please visit our website for more information on how to adopt, special events, adoption application, educational and volunteer information.
