Biography:

*HE DOES HAVE TO BE ADOPTED IN THE HUNTSVILLE/MADISON COUNTY AREA UNTIL HE IS FIXED*. The staff is working on that asap! Meet Rusty! I'm a happy and very energetic boy. I adore people, kids and other dogs but can be a bit jumpy with babies or elderly. That doesn't stop me from snuggling at the end of the day. I love food, a little too much, and will eat until I can't anymore so it's better to not leave my food out. I'm potty trained with a leash and crate trained with a blanket. Overall, I'm a wonderful family dog. I have the purest intentions and most loving heart and I know I'll make the right family very happy and complete. Apply at ghhs.org
  • Adoption Fee: $150

Our mission is to complete families through a thoughtful and thorough adoption process.

To ensure every animal is placed in a forever home, GHHS begins this process with a detailed adoption application. Each interested, potential adopter will fill out the application attached to the animal of interest. To be considered for adoption:

  • Adopters must be at least 19 years old.
  • If you rent, you must have permission from your landlord and pet fees must be paid in advance.
  • If adopting into a family, we require all members of the family to be in agreement about adopting. For families that already include another dog, we typically require a meet and greet; this may be hosted on the GHHS property, or at the potential adopter’s home.
  • Some animals may require a home inspection.
  • Verification of current pet(s) vaccine/vet records.

Meeting these guidelines is not a guarantee that your application will be accepted.
GHHS reserves the right to adopt only to qualified homes based upon our shelter guidelines. Each adoption is considered on a first-come, first-qualified basis once the animal is available for adoption. Exceptions may be made for potential adopters.

The adoption fee covers: spay/neuter surgery (legally required), current vaccines and boosters, a microchip with a lifetime registration, along with flea & tick preventative and heartworm preventative until time of adoption. In addition, each animal will be sent home with a small bag of food to help transition them to their new diet.

Safety note: All dogs must leave wearing a leash and collar, cats must leave in a carrier. You may bring these items with you or purchase them at GHHS. Dog leashes/collars are available for purchase, $2 and up. Cat carriers (cardboard) are available for $5.
