Molly and her sister, Maggie, were found by a Good Samaritan at his job site on March 30.  Both were suffering from starvation, but Molly was in worse shape than Maggie with vomiting.  They were placed in the HSCC Good Sam program for immediate care.  At the time, both girls tested positive for coccidia and were treated and Molly given anti-nausea meds.  After 2 weeks in foster care, Molly was still under weight and had sudden onset of diarrhea and subsequently diagnosed with physaloptera, a stomach parasite.  She responded  great to her treatment.

Molly likes to play/frolic just like healthy pups her age.  She recently took up the trampoline.  She also likes green peaches, jumping 5-6 feet to pick directly from the peach trees.  Molly does have a docked tail.

Molly will be a wonderful addition to a family who will give her lots of love and care. Like all dogs, Molly will be happiest when she is involved with her family and their activities her whole life.

All of our puppies are up-to-date on vaccinations, intestinal worm treatment, heart worm, flea and tick prevention and will be micro-chipped prior to adoption.  Our foster families do their best to begin their house-training but please be patient with any puppy you adopt. Its a learning process!  Mollys foster is also working with her on on very basic commands. (good manners!)

If you are ready for the work, time, patience, expense and commitment required to raise a puppy, we welcome your adoption application. Sending us a completed application is the very first step so be sure to do that first thing! The adoption donation is $200. All of our animals must be spayed or neutered when reaching the appropriate age. A reimbursement of $50 will be sent to the adopter once we receive the receipt from the procedure. The adoption donation also includes a discount for S.T.A.R. Puppy Kindergarten or Canine Good Citizen Class. 

When applying for any adoption, please be aware that The Humane Society office is open Mon - Thurs from 10 - 3. We will respond to any inquiries or adoption submissions sent during non-office hours on the next day we are in the office. Thank you for your understanding!

Dog Adoption Guidelines:

You must fill out an application to be considered for adoption. You can find the application at www.ForThePets.org/adoption.htm or email humanesociety@murray-ky.net for an application.

It is not a first come process; we try to match the dog with the family for a FOREVER home. We process all applications at once and take the dog off the site, place on adoption pending status until a decision is made. If a suitable home match is not found, the dog returns to active status.

The dog adoption process can take up to two weeks; we are a small group of volunteers who mostly have full time jobs.

All of our dogs are indoor dogs with outdoor privileges, unless otherwise specified.

We do not fly or ship our dogs due to heat/cold concerns and safety issues. If you are willing to fly out AND fly the dog back in the cabin (size restrictions) with you, that would be considered.

If you apply to adopt a dog and are chosen, you must come to Murray, KY to pick up the dog and fill out the paperwork in person.

We do adopt out-of-state, but we do not transport.

We cant provide individual meet and greet sessions for each applicant. If chosen to adopt, you will have plenty of time for your family and pets to visit with the potential new family member before signing any paperwork and will not be committed to adopt if you choose not to at that time.
