Meet Merry Muzzle!

Merry Muzzle is an extremely nervous and timid girl who is just beginning to learn about the world around her. She has had very little socialization or training up until now, so she will need a calm, patient adopter who understands that building trust takes time.

Although she is fearful in new situations, Merry Muzzle is a sweet soul at heart. With gentle guidance, consistency, and positive reinforcement, she has the potential to slowly gain confidence and blossom at her own pace. Training and socialization will be important parts of her journey, and her future family should be prepared to celebrate the small wins along the way.

Merry Muzzle would do best with adopters who are committed to helping a shy dog feel safe, secure, and loved. For the right person, watching her grow and come out of her shell will be incredibly rewarding.

Our Application Process

Once you place a deposit, you'll receive an order confirmation with a link to our application. Please submit your application within 48 hours—if we don't receive it, your deposit will be refunded and the animal reopened to other applicants. We only accept 2–3 applications at a time so we can carefully review each one. Application review may take up to 10 days. As a pet-first organization, we prioritize the best possible match for the animal; if two applicants are equally suitable, we will move forward with the one submitted first.

Our Adoptable Animals

Every adoptable animal at the HBSPCA comes with everything your furry friend needs. This includes all Age Appropriate vaccinations* and deworming, testing and prevention procedures before adoption (when required), flea prevention treatment, microchipping, dental work and bloodwork (when recommended by our veterinarian). * Puppies and Kittens under 16 weeks must visit your vet for any remaining Boosters and Rabies vaccination. Most importantly, your adoptable animal always comes fully spayed/neutered. We also offer every adoptable animal one sample bag of the Hill's Science Diet food (which this animal has been eating in our care) and 30 Days (from adoption date) Pet Insurance! All-in, our adoptable animals come with over $1,000 of value.

Can I Come Visit?

For the wellbeing of all animals in our care, members of the public are not able to meet with adoptable animals until they have completed a formal application, and are invited to a scheduled meet-and-greet appointment. In addition, the majority of animals in our care are placed in foster homes until they are adopted to optimize their health. Most animals you see on our adoption page are not located on-site, in our shelter.

Adoption Commitment Approach

  • Your Commitment

    The HBSPCA facilitates adoptions through a unique Adoption Commitment Approach. By submitting a fully-refundable deposit today, which will be paired with your application, we're able to offer the following guarantee.

  • Our Guarantee

    Every animal you see on our website is currently available for adoption. We limit the total number of applications per adoptable animal to a small group of high-intent applicants, carefully review every application, and keep our website up-to-date.

  • A Better Experience

    Your valuable time to complete an application, and your commitment to adopt with us, is respected. In other words, we review your application with ~2-5 other applicants (instead of dozens or hundreds), and guarantee a response.
