My story

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

How I Arrived At NHS: I am a transfer from Companion Animal Control.
I am a big, goofy, fun loving dog.
I just love getting lots of attention and pets.
I love going for walks and playing.
I have fast become a favorite here at NHS because I am just a bundle of fun and love.

Good With Kids: Unknown
Good With Cats: No
Good With Dogs: Unknown

All the dogs at Northwoods Humane Society have had a basic exam by NHS veterinary staff. They have been microchipped, tested for Heartworm (if over 6 months of age), had at least their first distemper combo vaccination (2nd if here longer), dewormed with a general dewormer, and had a flea and tick treatment applied if applicable. All the dogs will be spayed or neutered before they are adopted to their new permanent homes. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix.
