Hildie is an irresistably sweet little female blue merle sheltie who came into rescue with her furbrother Hank when their elderly owner was no longer able to live at home and his relatives didn't care to take care of them. They are amazing little dogs, not only starved for food at the present but also starved for affection. Hildie, although not quite as trusting as her brother Hank is also so happy to be given as much hands on affection as she can talk us out of and with very little effort she will make a wonderful family companion. Luckily, Hildie was not HW positive like her brother was....so she will be ready to be adopted as soon as the right person/family comes along.
*** PLEASE READ ***
If you want to inquire about a specific SHELTIE waiting to be matched with a perfect forever family of their own, please fill out our on-lineADOPTION APPLICATION .
PROCESS OF ADOPTION:
After we have had time to review your application and check references, we will be back in touch with you. This is a totally volunteer organization; therefore please allow at least 48 hours for us to get back with you. If at that time you have NOT gotten a reply, please e-mail us as your application may not have arrived. (ALL APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACKNOWLEDGED, WHETHER APPROVED OR NOT.)
After your submitted application has been processed, references checked and approved, a HOME VISIT will be scheduled after which time arrangements will then be discussed regarding meeting your potential new family member.
Adoption fees range from $150-$275, based on the age/adoptability of each specific dog. HOWEVER, please inquire about our SENIOR SANCTUARY PROGRAM if you are open to adopting a dog in double digit years. We believe these SPECIAL individuals and families deserve even more consideration/support and we make every effort to make these adoptions a WIN WIN for both our DOG and POTENTIAL FAMILY.
