Story
RCHS does not conduct DNA tests on dogs who enter our facility therefore we are unable to guarantee breed or breed mix. Information provided by shelter staff, volunteers, and veterinarians is used to give a best estimate as to a dog’s breed make up. We do our best to inform adopters about the potential breeds for each dog.We are a dog only facility so we do not know how most of our dogs will be with cats. Even if a dog is surrendered to us and said to be good with cats there is no way to be sure the dog will be good with your cats. We do have a 7 day foster-to-adopt program so that you can see how the dog interacts with your cats before adoption.

Story
🐾 Meet Baby Face Nelson! 🐾Baby Face Nelson is one of the brave 13 dogs rescued from a hoarding situation in a neighboring county. These tough little survivors spent their days outside, waiting for food and water to arrive, sharing a small pen with 11 other dogs. 🌧️ For that reason, we named them after famous tough guys and gals!Despite his past, Baby Face Nelson is a sweet boy with a friendly demeanor around new people. He’s eager to connect and is very social with people but he may still need time to understand he’s safe and loved. 💖Baby Face Nelson will need help with leash training, housebreaking, and socializing with new people. Thankfully we have found out that the dogs from this group who were able to be fostered have adapted to inside living quickly and did well with housetraining.🦴 After living with so many dogs, he’s likely to get along well with most pups, but he might be a little fearful of larger dogs at first. Cats and kids? We recommend a week-long foster-to-adopt trial to ensure it’s a good fit. Since Lucky Luciano hasn’t lived with children before, we suggest homes with kids aged 5 and up, and it’s important for any kids in the home to meet him before adoption.Give Baby Face Nelson the loving home she deserves and watch him blossom! 🏡✨Baby Face Nelson is estimated to be around 6 months old. He is thought to be a mix of chihuahua and Terrier. Baby Face Nelson weighs 14 lbs and may get a bit bigger before he is full grown. Baby Face Nelson is vaccinated, flea & tick treated, microchipped, and will be scheduled for his neuter. Baby Face Nelson's adoption fee is $300. You can apply online for him at https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=sr2794&method=online_form_html&formid=21 Please put in an application for him on our website at www.highlandhumanesociety.org. Once processed we will set up a time for you to meet him.
