Meet Opie
Opie came to us, with his brother Oden. Opie was blessed with the most beautiful blue eyes, but he has confidence issues - he is a little unsure of himself although he feels confident with another doggo around, so he will do best in a home with another k-9 companion. He loves other dogs and gets along with almost all of them, but no chickens for this guy! People on the other hand, make him nervous. He is so happy around those he knows and will be that way with you too, if you give him the time to get to know you. It will take time, but it will be worth it the first time he comes to you, asking to be petted. He loves stuffed toys and jumps for joy when he gets to come play in the lobby. He is a really fun little guy. He is not house-trained but we offer free online basic obedience training through the Dog Academy to help with this. If you would like more information, please contact our shelter at 870-269-5200 or go to our website, schspets.org, and complete an adoption application and someone will call you for a meet and greet.
Adoption Process
We have an adoption application that can be found on our website and sent to our email or people call or inquire through adopt-a pet and petfinder where all our animals are posted and our FB page we call Stone County Humane Society Adoptions Available. It is a group page we use to find owners of lost pets as well as post our animals ready for adoption. Our normal FB page got hacked a few years ago and I have never set one up again. Our adoption fees are $100 for dogs and $50 for cats, and $150 for a trained dog through a local Paws in Prison training program we participate in every 8 weeks we send 2 dogs to be trained and adopted through this program. Our adoption fees include spay/neuter, rabies shots, 2 cat/dog shots and more for puppies, 4DXPlus Idexx Snap test for heartworm, ehrlichia, lime and one other disease, and worm medicine. We ask for vet references and get all the information we can to determine if a person can adopt an animal from SCHS.
