Location: Dog Shelter, WCGHS Kennels  (note her description says In foster home, but her location says Kennels


*Eligible for Foster to Adopt

Looking for a stunning, smart, and deeply devoted companion? Artemis is ready to step into your life! This gorgeous girl forms fast, close bonds with her favorite people and wants nothing more than to be your ultimate teammate.

Artemis absolutely loves the car and is always down for whatever adventure follows, plus she is a total joy to walk with her gentle leader on. She is dog friendly and loves making new canine buddies, though due to her large size and high energy, enthusiastic play style, she’ll do best in a home without small breeds. When she isn't socializing, her absolute favorite thing in the world is splashing, digging, and having the time of her life in a kiddie pool. Once it's time to unwind, she turns into a world class snuggler who wants to be right next to you or directly on top of you. For Artemis, physical contact is an absolute must!

*This dog is located in a foster home, please contact staff to schedule an appointment.*

This pet is in foster, you won't find them at the shelter

I've been in the shelter longer than most and my adoption fee has been paid by someone who loves me.

My foster knows me better than anyone! Here's what they had to say about me during my time with them:

He's super sweet and loves to be around and cuddle with his people. Zeus likes to play catch and get belly rubs. He's super polite, a gentle treat taker, and loves to go for walks.

I can be nervous around new people. It just takes me a little while to get comfortable. But once I get to know you, I'm very loving.

I'm an active dog! I would love to go home with a family who can help me burn off energy with exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures.

I'd like a home where my family is home often. I'm just really social and love spending time with people, I prefer to not be left alone for long periods.

I need a single-family home. Attached homes and apartments aren't the right fit for me. My friends at the shelter can tell you more about my needs.

I'm available for Trial Adoption! If you're interested in taking me home for 2 weeks before making a final decision, please speak to an adoption counselor.

I'm currently in foster and ready for my new home! If you're interested in meeting me, please email caninefoster@southwesthumane.org
