Adoption donation includes transport and all vaccinations, except for the Lyme—therefore, the dogs will not need to get any vaccinations for the first year. Our vet has recommended that all dogs under 6 months not to spay or neuter the pups because they are too young and their bodies are not fully developed
ADOPTED ON 12-03-17: Duffy was found on a small country road with no houses nearby where he had apparently been put out. He was panicking and running round and round in circles not knowing what to do or where to go. He was literally covered in fleas. Thank goodness a wonderful woman came along and grabbed him up and took him straight to the nearest vet where he got started on his vetting and his new “rescued” life! Duffy is a wonderfully happy and loving little guy that loves to play and get along with everything and everyone. He is so extremely thankful and you could see it in his sweet little face, he was so grateful! If we have to describe him with one word, it would be “happy”.
When he arrived in his northern foster home, he ran from balls, to toys, to a basket full of bones, he was ecstatic with all the new things in his life. He is a very smart sweet little puppy with one of the best personalities his southern and northern foster totally agree on. He loves all other dogs no matter what size they are and loves kids of all ages … not intimidated by young children at all. He will be a great addition to any family and they will be blessed to have him!
Like all dogs, Duffy will need a healthy dose of exercise to keep his active mind and body in shape. He would enjoy daily walks and some room to romp with other dogs in a fenced yard. He responds quite well to the leadership in his skilled foster home, knowing how to follow his human and dog pack. His success is in large part due to the extreme confidence and trust he gets from his foster mom and that he knows he is safe now. Watching him transition to a dog-loving family, one that can continue showering his with love, attention, and affection is the real heart of rescue. Duffy’s foster home provide mental and physical encouragement and he learns how to socialize with all dogs, large and small, this will help him thrive and be happy! We hear that it’s pretty darn adorable to watch Duffy follow the other resident dogs around and enjoy being in their mix!
If you are looking for a dog that you would like to take with you and be with all day, Duffy will likely be a great match for you. Duffy’s foster mom calls his “a total cuddlebug!” Who wouldn’t want to scoop up this package of cuteness and enjoy his? Now that he’s in his foster home with multiple other dogs of varying sizes, shapes, sexes and breeds, he does tremendously well! He is not a barker either, but he will announce a visitor, and that’s a good thing.
