Meet Ghost

PLEASE ASK FOR HELP BEFORE MEETING ME. I amd DEAF and take my job of protecting my pen very seriously. While I'm a sweet boy with my handlers, please take care with our introduction. You want to meet me out of the crate so that you can see me better. Meet Ghost! Ghost is a 7-year-old white Pit Bull Terrier mix , and he’s been patiently waiting far too long for a place to call home. He’s up to date on all vaccinations, fixed, microchipped, and has tested negative for heartworm. Ghost is deaf and will need an adopter who understands his special needs and can communicate with him using consistency and patience. He would do best as the only animal in the home and in an adult-only household. Ghost has been at the Ripley County Humane Society for over 1,400 days—he first arrived as a puppy after being found in a backyard in Kentucky, and he’s still hoping for his chance at a forever family. He does take his job of protecting his kennel seriously and may take a little time to warm up, but once he does, he becomes a deeply loyal and loving companion. He enjoys going for walks, running, and playing outside, and he takes pride in being a great watchdog. Despite spending much of his life in the shelter, Ghost remains a sweet boy who just wants someone to give him a chance. He’s incredibly deserving of a home where he can finally relax, feel safe, and be loved. If you’re willing to give Ghost the time and understanding he needs, he’ll reward you with a bond like no other. If you would like to meet any of our pets, they are available for viewing, every single day from noon until 3:30pm. If you have other dogs a meet and greet is required. Calling before a long drive is recommended to confirm availability.
