Story
Harley was an owner surrender, so she has lived in a home her entire life. She's very resilient and has acclimated well to living in a foster home, but she's looking for her forever home with her very own toys, bed, and family to call her own.  She's very spunky! Runs like the wind while playing outside with other dogs. Harley loves stuffed animal toys and is known to carry one as large as she is around the house. Always friendly and affectionate with people. As active is she is outside, she is a couch potato indoors and enjoys relaxing in front of the television.  She gets along well with cats, dogs, but we do not know how she would be around children, so it would be best to say she should steer away from families with children under the age of 12.  She is pee pad trained and crate trained.  Currently she is in Arkansas, but transport is available to New England. Her adoption fee is $550 and that includes the cost of transport. Harley has tested negative for heart worms and is fully vetted: spayed, utd on core vaccinations, microchipped, and has a Bordetella to prevent kennel cough.  ##2281959##

We originally adopted Milo from a breeder when he was only 2 months old. He is a joy to have. Due to work schedule I haven’t been able to be there as much as I would like. I hope to find him a loving home where he will be taken cared of and be much happier.

The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers. After you submit your application please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.
