My story

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

ABOUT ALEXIS
Looking for your new adventure buddy? Come meet Alexis! This sweet, snuggly girl is a 5 year old terrier mix who loves the outdoors. Alexis came to HAP when her owners were no longer able to care for a pet. Despite being at the shelter, she is so happy to be making new friends. She is such a sweet, little girl who loves to be right up against her humans. When our staff is passing by, Alexis will excitedly start to wiggle and wag as soon as she sees you. While she's not super motivated by treats, she is eager to please and listens well to commands, such as 'sit' or 'stay'. Alexis is already house-trained and has done well with other dogs at the shelter too. Her favorite things include spending time outside with her doggy friends, curling up on a bed with you, and we can't forget...belly rubs!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed to help you and your family find the perfect match in a pet. When the right match is made, we strive to conduct our adoptions thoughtfully, transparently, and with the utmost respect. You can view and submit an adoption questionnaire online ahead of your visit by going to our website: humaneanimalpartners.org. A questionnaire is not required to come visit us, but we will have you fill one out if interested in meeting with our animals. We strive to make the best match possible for you and for the animals. Most of our pets can go home same-day and come vaccinated, spay/neutered, and microchipped.
