Humane Society for Hamilton County’s Longest Resident Dog Searching for His Forever Home
Humane Society for Hamilton County’s (HSHC) longest resident dog Waylon has been waiting over 500 days in hopes to find a someone to love him and make him a part of their family. In a shelter full of adoptable dogs, somehow each day Waylon continues to be passed by.
A “larger than life” sized Waylon cutout is traveling around to local businesses in Hamilton County and the surrounding area in hopes that the perfect person will stumble upon him. The “Where’s Waylon” campaign has been created to help gain attention and awareness on adopting Waylon, a long-term shelter dog. Patrons are encouraged to snap a selfie with Waylon and #whereswaylon to be featured on HSHC’s social pages (@hamiltonhumane).
Waylon would be best suited for an adult only home (18+) and one where there are no cats or small dogs. Waylon loves being around his humans as much as possible, so if you work from home or are home often, that is an added bonus.
Waylon is best known for his love of treats and naps. To learn more about Waylon and to inquire about adoption, visit his personalized website at hamiltonhumane.com/whereswaylon.
“Our ultimate goal is to find Waylon the love he deserves in a forever home as soon as possible. He has an immeasurable amount of love to give someone who is willing to just give him a chance. Here at HSHC, we believe each and every animal deserves a second chance no matter how long and no matter what it takes,” said Stephanie Gay, Adoption Programs Manager.

HSHC also serves the community with a variety of unique programs like the Survivor Program and Pets Healing Vets (PetsHealingVets.com).
