My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Chocolate and her sister Squirt are a bonded pair of ladies who are looking for a home where they can spend the rest of their days together.  Chocolate is a little more standoffish when it comes to meeting new people and it takes her time to warm up to new people and situations.  She will follow who from room to room in the house watching what you are doing.  Squirt is the exact opposite and an absolute lap dog and loves to be held and be right with you at all times.  Even though she's half the size of Chocolate she's the dominate one in the relationship when it comes to food and will boss Chocolate around when it comes to food or sharing a bed on the floor.  When Chocolate feels like Squirt has spent too much time sitting in someone's lap she will bark at her to get her to come lay with her in the bed in the floor.  Squirt is about the perfect weight for her size, but Chocolate could stand to loose about 8 pounds which her foster home has been working on.  Both girls are good with other dogs and cats.  They were in a home where they had only used pee pads and with the cold winter weather and snow they are been too scared to go outside.  They have never walked on leash before so need a home with a secure fence or a home where they can be allowed to use pee pads in the home.  These little ladies are sure to be a good addition to almost any home.  They have not been around small children so we are unsure on how they will do with them.    

 

 

Estimated DOB:   01/04/2017

All Scott County Humane Society pets are in volunteers' foster homes. We do NOT have an intake facility and are NOT the Scott County Animal Shelter. All animals in our care are from the Scott County Animal Shelter, an open-admission, county-run facility.


We do adoptions through online listings on websites such as this one, as well as most Saturdays from 11am to 5pm at the PetSmart in Lexington at Hamburg-Pavilion! We also do adoptions at the SCHS Center in Georgetown in the Indian Acres Shopping Center.
