In the shelter’s words
Dorothy, our Golden Girl, is a complete sweetheart! She was originally found in a drainage ditch in Ft. Smith, AR, and when no owner came forward to claim her, she joined our Foster Gang in Texas. Dorothy is an older lady, and as such, her sight and hearing are not 100%, but she is full of life and has a terrific attitude - unless you try to wipe her face, which is NOT her favorite thing, and she'll let you know it. Her initial vetting has been taken care of, but she's still got some things that need to be taken care of, so she isn't available for adoption right this minute. We will, however, be accepting applications so she will hopefully have a home ready and waiting for her after she's completely cleared by the vet for adoption. Dorothy is available for our Seniors for Seniors adoption program. More to come soon...

Shelter-listed fee: 275.00
We require all applicants to complete an application. All references are checked including vet reference. If the references check out then we move to a home visit. A volunteer from our organization goes into the home and inspects the home for safety and talks to the potential family about any questions or concerns that they have. Our Adoption Donation fee ranges from $175-$350 depending on the age of the dog. We do require an adoption contract to be signed by the adoptive family. All dogs are adopted only after their shots are current and they have been spayed/neutered.
