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.  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.  

TRANSFER OUR COMPANIONS RESCUE 02-14-19: Chase–also called Dobby as he greatly resembles the house elf in the “Harry Potter” movies–is a sweet, happy and loving pup!  He’s about a year old and loves to cuddle, play and has a smile that would melt any heart!  Though Chase had a rough start to life and lost a limb, he doesn’t let that slow him down a bit!  He keeps up with the other pups – no problem!  He loves to run and play outside and then snuggle into a big pillow inside for long winter naps.  He’s house trained, gets along great with kids and other dogs, and though would prefer a home without cats and bunnies.  He’s being cared for in CT and can’t wait to find his forever warm and loving home.

Chase is a beautiful male black lab mix, he is fully vetted, weighs about 30 to 35 pounds and has had a six month pro heart shot already. He is about a year old now and is lovable even though, when he was found, his leg was mangled really bad and had a horrible infection. His life was saved by a kind hearted southern woman; she picked him up and took him to the vet. Unfortunately, his leg and infection was so far gone and infected so bad that they just had to amputate it just to save his life.  The vet really doesn’t know what happened but he does not seem to miss his leg now.

That ideal home should also have a lot of time to devote to Chase and understand that perfection is possible, but that it doesn’t happen overnight. Any new rescue dog requires time, patience and understanding. One that has the added baggage of rescue and an unfortunate past requires even more of all the above, but as we’ve found with all the dogs in our care once they’re re-homed, they also tend to offer more generous servings of commitment, loyalty, companionship and devotion for they sense deep gratitude at being loved and feel obligated to show it in every interaction. That’s true for Chase who is just as precious as can be and eager, ready and waiting to be part of your family! Already he’s learning and responding well to this new vibe of life and affection that he’s been experiencing in his CT foster home. Chase is truly a supremely sweet and such a special dog!


This dog cannot be adopted to Massachusetts residents due to new laws regarding rescue dogs being prohibited from adoption. Please contact Patricia Cabral at: 617-626-1786 or Mike Cahill at: 617-626-1794 for questions regarding what dogs you are allowed to adopt 

ALL interested adopters MUST complete an application; agree to a vet reference check, phone interview and home visit. ALL family members MUST be in attendance for home visits – no exceptions. This helps us get to know everyone in the family so that we can help find the right dog for you 

Disclaimer: Please note that the breeds posted on our dogs’ biographies are our best guess based on years of working with rescue dogs. Adopters who need to know the exact breed or mix of breeds of a particular dog must have the dog’s DNA tested at their own expense.


 

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.
