Story
My name is Murphy and I am a gorgeous brindle boy.  Per my DNA test I'm 37% American pitbull terrier, 12% Australian cattle dog and 7% Labrador retriever. I am a good boy, sadly I've been at the shelter for a long time :( and here is what you need to know:  I need a home with a great leader who can continue my current routines, I'm kennel trained and muzzle trained if you live in an area where i need to wear a muzzle to go for walk. I know sit, down, wait, I love walks and hikes, car rides, belly rubs under the sun, eating ice, doing zoomies on the snow, and I love people!  I have a high prey drive so no small dogs or cats for me. I like children but I think it's best that I live with older ones as I might be a little too strong for them. If you think I can come to your house and show you what a good boy I am, please reach out and let's meet!   Thank you!!!  Love, Murphy.  Thanks to our amazing Angel Sponsors, our long term pups now come with reduced adoption fees, alleviating financial road blocks for some, and making it even easier to open your heart and home to a furry friend. The adoption fee is $100 plus tax and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter and a home training session.  Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member. *****We are currently operating by appointment only during the social distancing stage of quarantine.   If you want to meet this pet, or are interested in adopting, please submit an inquiry or email to tchspapillion@gmail.com. Someone from the rescue will contact you and/or your family and determine, on a broad level, whether you might be a fit for the animal.  If so, they will provide instructions for completing the application. Your application will be reviewed and you will be contacted to set up a time to meet at the shelter or the foster home.   The introduction between you and the pet will be supervised by one of the dog counselors or the foster.   If all goes well, you can adopt during the same visit.

Story
Meet Cash, the 83-pound hunk of staffie mix – a living testament to the saying, "Big dogs, big hearts, bigger appetites." Cash is a master of basic commands, but occasionally practices selective hearing. The way to Cash’s attention is through his stomach - which makes the staff feel he is highly trainable. On walks, Cash is a sniffing Sherlock Holmes, investigating everything thoroughly, so it may be a zigzagging adventure until he has a chance for more training. And when it comes to wildlife, Cash's high prey drive transforms him into a canine Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Backyard Squirrel, so a good harness leash is recommended. Cash's quirks are balanced by moments of pure zen. Imagine quiet evenings with Cash, the cuddle aficionado, offering generous kisses and turning your downtime into the best part of the day.Stubborn at times, sure, but Cash's charm lies in his personality. He's not just a dog; he's a comedic companion, adding laughter and love to every day. Ready for a treat-filled, adventure-packed life? Adopt Cash – because life's better with an 83-pound bundle of joy.  For more information, visit https://townandcountryhumanesociety.org/ Thanks to our amazing Angel Sponsors, our long term pups now come with reduced adoption fees, alleviating financial road blocks for some, and making it even easier to open your heart and home to a furry friend.

Story
ADOPT BERNADETTE! Bernie is such an incredible girl. She loves long walks and sniffing game trails for hours on end. She is a very smart black nose cur mix 4 1/2 years old. Bernie is always looking for attention and love, she wants nothing more than to kiss faces, love on her people and play with them too. She’s an energetic and lively young lady and she deserves all the love and care in the world. Bernie needs to be an only dog since she’s not fond of other pups or cats. She loves treats of all kinds and she will do whatever tricks she is asked to do for a food reward. If you are the one who will snuggle with me please contract Town and Country Humane Society and set up a time to meet me.

Story
Wyatt is a sweet 7 year old Hound mix. He loves walks and CUDDLES and loves being by your side all the time. He does struggle with some anxiety and can be distrustful of men at first but will eventually warm up to them. Wyatt came from a very anxious home and would thrive in a home that can help him at his speed. He loves all of the attention he can get, and would love a home where he can have a nightly cuddle session before bedtime. He would make the perfect office dog.  Wyatt isn't the biggest fan of going to the vet, so he is muzzle trained for his safety and the safety for the vet and their staff. You couldn't ask for a sweeter dog. The adoption fee is $275 and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter. If you want to meet Wyatt, please send send an inquiry from Petfinder or send an email to email@townandcountryhumanesociety.org.   They will provide you the information to submit an application.   We are limiting adopters on the property to maintain social distancing so you will be invited to meet your match AFTER the application has been reviewed and approved.  At that time, you will be introduced to him by a one of our dog counselors.  They will help with ensuring he's the right pet for you.  If so, you will be invited to complete the adoption.    Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee prior to application submission.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member.

Story
Red is a 1 year old Redbone Coonhound mix. Red loves his peeps so don't forget to cuddle with him as you hang out and watch movies!  He's a hound so loves chasing rabbits in the yard and enjoys playing with other dogs but can get a little rough. Since he's still a puppy, he will flourish with obedience training. He is definitetly not an apartment dog because he likes to talk and tell you about his day.

The adoption fee is $350 and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.  Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member. *****We are currently operating by appointment only due to a shortage of personnel.   If you want to meet this pet, or are interested in adopting, please submit an inquiry or email to tchspapillion@gmail.com.  Someone from the rescue will contact you and/or your family and determine, on a broad level, whether you might be a fit for the animal.  If so, they will provide instructions for completing the application.

Story
Rosie is a 7 1/2 yr old female mix but don't let her hear you call her a middle aged woman. Rosie identifies as an Olympic athlete in training. She is reluctantly appreciative of healthier food and portion control in order to meet that goal. She will always choose the longer, hillier route in our walks. She came to us with bladder stones, but thankfully, those stones were removed and she is learning she can trust her bladder again.Rosie has done very well with other dogs in our playgroups. She really appreciates human contact, love and attention. She would love to live out her best life in a compassionate home. If that is your home come out and meet her. The adoption fee is $200 and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.  Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member. *****We are currently operating by appointment only due to a shortage of personnel.   If you want to meet this pet, or are interested in adopting, please submit an inquiry or email to tchspapillion@gmail.com.  Someone from the rescue will contact you and/or your family and determine, on a broad level, whether you might be a fit for the animal.  If so, they will provide instructions for completing the application.
