History: Rusty was recently surrendered to rescue and is doing well in his foster home. He is a big boy with big ole feet so we do anticipate him being a large dog fully grown.
A Note from the Foster: Hello to my future family! I am looking for a family that can cuddle with me as I love to take long naps, sleep in and lay on people's laps. I'm still getting used to new sights and sounds and am interested in everything going on around me!
I've learned to go upstairs but haven't figured out how to go down them yet. Still working on my potty training but I'll get there soon! I love going in my crate at night but not so much during the day when my foster family leaves. I'm very comfortable being around kids, strangers and am still getting used to being around other dogs. Walking on a leash is still something very new to me so will need more consistency and practice in this area. This little fluff ball will absolutely steal your heart.
Adoption Fee: Our adoption fees typically vary from $500-$1250 + tax. Our coordinator will be in touch with you with specific information during the application processing. For more information on where our animals come from, here is some additional information. Thank you!
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!
