Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Glinda, a stunning grey Pitbull mix with charming white boots that sparkle like a pair of magical slippers. Much like her namesake from Wicked, Glinda is full of grace and potential, but her path to opening up takes a little time. Shy around new people, she’s more “I’m Not That Girl” at first—but don’t let that fool you. Once she trusts you, she reveals a personality so full of love, you’ll feel like you’ve been “Dancing Through Life” with her forever.
Glinda takes her time to warm up to strangers, preferring to observe quietly from the sidelines before deciding if you’re popular enough to join her inner circle. But once she decides you’re worthy of her trust, you’ll see her true colors shine. She’ll love you “For Good” and forever, proving her loyalty and affection in the sweetest ways.
Her ultimate goal? To be the lap dog of your dreams. While she might not be the size of a tiny dog that fits in your arms, she wholeheartedly believes she’s meant to curl up close and share endless snuggles. With her loving gaze and soft, soulful cuddles, she’ll leave you feeling like you’re “Defying Gravity.”
Glinda thrives with a family who understands that even the most magical companions take time to grow comfortable. She needs a quiet and patient household where her shyness is met with kindness, giving her the space to settle in and show her true, wonderful self.
Like the beloved witch of the same name, Glinda brings light, love, and a little magic into the lives of those lucky enough to know her. With Glinda by your side, you’ll quickly realize she’s no ordinary dog—she’s the good witch of your heart, and she’ll change your life for good.
Since many of our adoptable dogs are in foster homes, appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt!
Our adoption fees include the following: all of our dogs/puppies are current on vaccinations (DHPP and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, heartworm tested and current on preventative, microchipped, treated for fleas/ticks and are spayed or neutered. Our large dog adoption fee is generally $175 + tax. Our small dog and puppy adoption fee is generally $275+ tax. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Due to space limitations, we do not hold dogs.
Because we are on a busy street, we require that all dogs leaving the shelter be in a carrier or on leash. All pets remain up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee paid.

More about this shelter
BRHS formed in 1998 to help the Brookings Animal Control Department find homes for stray animals.The unclaimed, homeless cats and dogs from Animal Control are BRHS' priority. Those unclaimed are transferred to BRHS where they get the necessary wellness care and are spayed/neutered. Animal Control brings any sick or injured animals to BRHS for immediate care.
In 2013 BRHS was very fortunate to move into its present location across from the Brookings Airport. The building was built specifically to house animals and provides a separate dog kennel area, rooms to house cats, natural lighting, and proper ventilation throughout the whole facility. There are also medical isolation, quarantine, treatment, and surgery rooms.
BRHS has been recognized for and has won multiple awards from both city and national organizations, including several Dog Rescue Awards and a nomination for the Governor’s Award.
