Hashbrown's Ready for His Next Chapter!

As origin stories go Hashbrown’s first chapter in life was anything but pleasant. The two-year-old terrier blend was found wandering the streets of Wailuku, the county seat of Maui, disoriented and completely alone. Upon his arrival at Maui Humane, it was discovered that this sweet wayward boy didn’t have a microchip or even the ability to see! The organization, already at critical capacity, realized that they would struggle to properly care for the unsighted new arrival and reached out to Helen Woodward Animal Center.

 

The Center accepted Hashbrown without hesitation and since his southern California debut he has shown himself to be a tender and loving little pup. He gets along wonderfully with his foster family – including their two resident dogs – and everyone at the Center has fallen in love with his quirky, treat loving self. If you want to help this brave, blind boy write the next chapter in his life, apply to adopt him today!

 

Due to Hashbrown’s condition, he’s currently staying in foster care. Anyone interested in meeting him is encouraged to apply at this link. He has been altered and is up-to-date on all of her vaccinations. Hashbrown is microchipped for identification as with all pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center.

Helen Woodward Animal Center is located at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe. Kennels are open Monday to Thursday from  12 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Friday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information call 858-756-4117, option #1.

Helen Woodward Animal Center pets come from a variety of sources, such as the transfer of animals from public shelters to relieve overcrowding, working with local dog and cat rescues, as well as owner surrender. Every animal in our pet adoption program has received a medical examination, spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, tons of TLC and a microchip. Our goal is to adopt our pets into loving and permanent homes. Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoption Counselors are here to help you choose a pet who will be your perfect match for life.
