ADOPTED ON 05-22-15: Say hello to Cam, he is very unique!  Cam is a wonderful dog with a sweet personality, approximately 1 year old, weighs 25 lbs, neutered and up to  date on all vaccinations. Mr. Cam has moderate activity level. He is very friendly, always up to play if another dog asks, but he doesn’t mind just hanging out when it is quiet. Cam will be able to travel north on June 1, 2015.

Cam chooses where he wants to hang out during down time. Sometimes he chooses to hang with everyone and sometimes he chooses his kennel.  He is very smart and LOVES toys and treats. He is very respectful when taking treats, and uses a “soft mouth.” He was exposed to cats and small children in his previous foster home, and he did just fine with both. He walks excellent on a leash, curls up in a ball and sleeps when riding in the car and is crated while his foster mom is at work. When she returns he is loose in the house until bedtime.

Cam’s foster said he has only had one accident, when she left him loose for the work day as a test, but is confident that if he were able to practice house training on a more regular schedule, his skills would improve. She also said he has never once had an accident inside the crate. He is a “go with the flow” kind of guy and his personality would make him a wonderful addition to any family. He  would do great as a companion for a family with children who would like to have a dog. He is not too big, and would be active when activity is happening, but completely content to just hang out when it was quiet time as well.

Cam is very social, and he would really like it if there were other dogs big or small, to hang out and play with in his new home. He says cats are welcome too, he would love to have a napping partner!  The bottom line is Cam just wants to be someone’s loyal companion. Whether that means hikes and road trips, or walks in the evening and TV time at night, it is fine with him. Please fill out an application if you think Cam sounds like the right match for you.

  • Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs
  • Always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children to prevent any biting or ear or tail pulling on the part of either party.
  • Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog, no matter how friendly, should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
  • Children need to be taught how to how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children.
  • No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child because often-young children don’t understand that a cute little dog, or any dog, might not want “love and kisses.”
  • Never let young children pick up a puppy or small dog. Instead, make them sit on the floor with the dog in their lap. Pay attention to the dog’s body language, and put him safely in his crate if he appears to be unhappy or uncomfortable with the child’s attention.
  • Always teach children how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs.
  • Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
  • Be prepared dogs will protect themselves
  • Most important, it is your responsibility to make sure that your children and the dog are supervised at all times and safe. You cannot leave it up to the dog, the dog is an animal and will behave like an animal. They rely on us to guide and protect them, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
  • THIS IS YOUR JOB, NOT THE DOG

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
