What’s up, peeps?! I’m Mugs, and I’m here to rock your world! I’m an energetic 4-year-old chow mix, ready to take you on epic hikes and explore all the beautiful waterfalls out there. Long adventures are my jam, and don’t worry—I’m all about those well-deserved naps, too!
Toys are my absolute favorite! I’ll let you know when it’s playtime and when I prefer to keep my treasures to myself. I can be a bit of a private guy, but hey, who isn’t these days?
I’ve met some other pups and loved getting to know them on walks. If you have a dog at home, I’d love for them to join us for a stroll so we can sniff and interact!
Don’t let my chill vibe fool you—I’ve got some serious zoomies! Just wait until you see me in action; I’m the fastest guy around!
If you’re looking for an adventurous and fun-loving companion, let’s meet and start our journey together!
My adoption fee is $175. Benton County adopters have an additional licensing fee.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption procedures have changed in response to safety restrictions and precautions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Please visit our website, heartlandhumane.org, specifically our Adoptions page (heartlandhumane.org/adoptions/), for up-to-date information on adoption procedures.
Things to know:
• We require that you are allowed to have an animal where you live. We will contact the rental agency or owner of the property to verify this prior to approving an adoption questionnaire.
• We reserve the right to deny an adoption if the animal will not be a good fit for your home.
• Adoption fees must be paid at the time of adoption (see below for a table of current adoption fees).
• Dogs: If you have a dog in your home already, you will need to schedule a dog-to-dog meet at the shelter before your adoption can be approved.
• Cats and small animals: We do not have the ability to do pet meets with cats or small animals prior to adoption. However, we can counsel you on safely introducing a new pet into the home, and will always take our animals back if an adoption does not work out.
• We require that animals are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. If an animal is not yet fixed, you may place a hold on it until it is ready to be adopted.
Heartland will always take our animals back if an adoption does not work out.
