Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Palmer
This young two-year old dog, Palmer, is a fantastic dog. We rescued him from a kill
shelter and brought him to the safety of our no kill shelter. Palmer is perfect. He is calm,
friendly, easy-going, affectionate, happy, quiet and mindful. Palmer is house-trained! He
walks easily on a leash and does well traveling in a car. He loves to play, but he seems
to love being with his people even more. He loves other dogs and people including
kids, and given his calm demeanor, Palmer most likely would do well with cats.
Palmer is such a handsome boy. He is smaller than most labs, probably 50 lbs. His
black coat is silky soft and glossy. And his warm brown eyes just pierce your heart and
melt your soul. He sits for treats and is so earnest to be the best boy. We are in love
with this dog and so glad that we had the opportunity to bring him to safety as we
search for a loving home. Palmer is a gem. The family or person who adopts him is
going to be so lucky and so happy with Palmer. Palmer will be a great family dog, travel
partner and soul dog. He really connects and will give his heart to you.
If interested in Palmer, please submit an application found online at
www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org. Once completed, please follow-up with a call
to our shelter at 706-865-4135 and leave a message or email us at
smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.org, letting us know you submitted an application.
Our website has been glitchy. All adopters must complete an approval process which
involves a reference check with current/recent vet and a brief home visit if located in the
immediate area. We do permit out of state adoptions. Adopters MUST come to the
shelter to transport their new family member home. We do not ship nor do we transport
them to their new homes. Adoption policies and application procedures are detailed at
the shelter website: http://charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable
Animals.
Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care
remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished
rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually is operating
at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.

Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care
remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished
rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually is operating
at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.
Our adoption process begins with the submission of an application which is used to gather information and initiate conversation with the adopting person/family. The form also assists us with assessing the environment for suitability and safety in the placement of our residents. The application is the first step in the approval process, followed by veterinarian reference check, landlord approval confirmation if relevant and a home visit which may be done physically or virtually depending on the distance from the shelter. The approval process can be initiated either before or after a visit to the shelter to visit our residents. The application for dogs is located on our Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/smithgallhumanesociety/photos/a.984873858223547.1073741865.548822128495391/1271213192922944/?type=3&theater . For cat application, go to: https://www.facebook.com/smithgallhumanesociety/photos/a.984873858223547.1073741865.548822128495391/1271223856255211/?type=3&theater . The forms will be automated for online submission through a new website currently under construction with an anticipated launch date of no later than Nov 2016. Requirements for adoption are specific to the needs of the animal in addition to standard checks for safety issues. Adopters must come to the shelter once approved to take their adopted pet home. We do not ship nor do we transport. Submitting the form is neither a guarantee of adoption nor an entitlement to "first come,first served" in the selection process of safely and appropriately placing our residents. Decision to approve/not approve an adopter(s) is based on the needs of the dog, not the needs of the adopter. The application should be downloaded before printing. The completed form can be returned through Facebook Messages, emailing to: smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.net or delivery to the shelter. The process usually takes 1 to 3 business days but can be slowed by not completing all of the questions, difficulty in reaching people relevant to approval and scheduling a home visit. Our residents must be returned to us at any point in time if the adoption is no longer suitable/safe for the pet or circumstances have changed to where a new home is needed. A contract must be signed to complete the adoption process. Standard fees for dogs are $100 and for cats $85. Some fees are subsidized in various amounts as low as $25 (minimum allowed subsidized fee) for dogs and $20 (minimum allowed subsidized fee) for cats . All of our animals are spay/neutered, have age appropriate vaccines and are free of internal parasites. Dogs are tested for heart worms and put on monthly prevention. Cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.
