History: We recently welcomed a group of animals who needed help from various unfortunate situations in rural areas down south. Whether overcrowded shelters or unclaimed impounds, they have a second chance at finding their forever homes and hope to meet you soon!
A Note from the Foster: She is a great dog, I think she would do well in almost any environment, very patient and easy going.
She loves to play with our dogs without trying to be dominant, is interested in the cat but respects his space, and even seems to be safe around the chickens. No accidents since her first night here, she learns quickly and wants to please. She doesn't like the kennel and will bark off and on to see if she can get out, but does fine with being confined in one room. She hasn't chewed up anything or damaged anything, and she loves to chew antlers and is curious about toys. She knows how to sit and learned how to use the dog door quickly. She listens well most of the time (just not when we tell her to get off the couch) and is improving on the leash. She is a little challenging to walk, kind of all over the place like she doesn't know where to go, but when I jog she matches pace and stays by my side with a loose leash. She will try to take off if there's a squirrel, but nothing else seems to phase her.
She has thick hair right now, I think she was an outdoor dog in her previous life. She doesn't really act like a husky, no yodeling, no escape attempts that we've seen. She is long and low, more like a large corgi maybe?
Pearl greets everyone with a smile and follows us from room to room, patiently devoted. It's hard to describe what a good dog she is, and we've had a lot of dogs. She's going to be someone's best friend.
Adoption Fee: $510 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
