My personality

My story

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

If you want a 100-pound furrball, you must come to meet Kaya!! Kaya is a gorgeous red Malamute that is fun to be around! Kaya loves to go for car rides, hikes, and strolls in the lakes. She is 9 years old but has the energy of a much younger dog. Kaya was recently adopted and though she gets along with most dogs in a more casual setting she does not want to share her home with one. She was in a home with a toddler for the week she was adopted and did very well with him. Kaya's ideal home would be someone who loves to go for walks and have a canine sidekick on road trips. We are open Wed-Sat from Noon to 4 for walk-ins. To get preapproved to adopt same day fill out an application on our website spfldhumane.org. If you have a vet you must contact them to permit them to speak to us.
Adoption fee-$100

Due to the strict animal import laws in MA, we can not adopt to MA residents.

More about this shelter

We're a small shelter in Vermont covering 11 towns in Windsor County. We have a small but very dedicated staff, and an active volunteer program. We have been rescuing cats and dogs since our inception in 1941, when a wonderful woman turned her barn into a shelter. Since then we've grown quite a bit and have recently redone our entire kennel area - we have sun tubes for natural light, radiant heat in the floors, a music program and an aromatherapy program. All through the generous donations of the public. Our cats live comfortably in community cat rooms where they are free to roam and climb and play - one cat room even has a fully fenced outdoor enclosure. We have acres of field for dog walking, and a small agility course set up in an outdoor kennel. We have a large puppy room, and a larger still puppy play area outside.
