is part Beagle she should have a fenced yard.

Gabe
Dog
Rottweiler mix
Size: medium
Age: adult
Sex: male
Notes:
Gabe is a Teddy Bear of a dog - loving, loving,
loving. We're not really sure of his breed mixture, but
he looks like he could have some Rottweiler in him. He's
a neutered male, approx. four to five years. When we
first met Gabe he was living on a fire escape and
sleeping in a cardboard box. He was adopted from CDHA
two years ago, but his family now includes an infant.
Although Gabe is a good boy, the new baby and he are
not a good match, so Gabe is now interviewing
perspective candidates to find a permanent home. He is a
strong dog on a leash, so he would not be appropriate
for a family with very young children. A nice, a fenced
yard would be beneficial.
Please see our
Calendar of Events to find out when you can meet
them at our next adoption clinic. Find out more about
this pet by contacting Carolyn at 237-0871, Janice at

Capital District Humane
takes in dogs/cats/other animals on a weekly basis and
places them for adoption in suitable homes. Our
website may not necessarily reflect all the animals
available. CDHA also keeps a list of privately
owned dogs/cats needing placement.
Please call for updated
lists. If you are looking for a special type of
animal that we don't currently have we'd be glad to
assist you in your search...
CDHA tries to match each animal with
the right person or family. We are not looking to
"get rid of" animals. Decisions regarding appropriate
placement of pets are made on various criteria. One of
the things we will ask for is a veterinary reference
or the last year or two of all your animals' medical
records. If more than one person is interested in a
particular pet, CDHA will make a determination regarding
an adoption based on which home we think would be best
for that animal.
We take adoptions very
seriously. If you are considering one of our pets we
will want to spend time talking with you and ask that
you be patient. Adopting a pet is a long-term
commitment. We're seeking quality homes for dogs
with individual needs.
WHAT
CAN I EXPECT AT AN ADOPTION CLINIC?
-
You will be
able to meet the animals for adoption and spend time
with them.
-
Volunteers
will provide you with a pet adoption list that
describes each dog.
-
Volunteers
will talk with you about what type of dog you are
looking to adopt and will try to match you with an
appropriate animal. We may have you fill out an
"Animal Request Form" if we don't currently have the
type of animal you're seeking.
-
If there is a
dog you're interested in adopting we will conduct an
in-depth interview and will have you complete an
application.
-
We will want
to meet all the immediate members of your household:
wife, husband, children.
-
We will review
your veterinary reference or animals' medical
records or will call your veterinarian to see if
they will recommend you as a pet owner.
-
We will request
doing a home visit.
-
You may not
necessarily be able to take home a dog directly from
the adoption clinic, depending on whether or not we
can do a home visit or check your veterinary
reference. If we have multiple applicants interested
in a dog, we will review all the applications and
will make a determination based on what we feel
would be the most appropriate placement for that
animal.
