Biography:

Ernie is a male Amazon parrot who is looking for a very special home after the passing of his owner. This big change has left him quite shy, and he’s still learning how to feel safe and confident again. Ernie will need time, patience, and gentle, consistent work to help him with socialization. He’s not a “hands-on” bird right now, but with an experienced and understanding parrot owner, he has the potential to make progress at his own pace. He does best with someone who understands parrot behavior, respects boundaries, and lets trust develop naturally. Amazon parrots are intelligent, long-lived companions, and Ernie’s future family should be ready for a true long-term commitment. In the right home—one that offers stability, routine, and compassion—Ernie can continue to heal and thrive. If you’re an experienced bird owner with the time and heart to give Ernie the patience he deserves, he may be the rewarding companion you’ve been waiting for.

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.
