ADOPTED ON 09-22-15 – Sally is a super sweet and loving dog. She loves children and lets them lead her around on her leash….she is so gentle with them. She has been one of the most laid back and easy fosters I have ever had. We will truly miss Sally Girl but She deserves a great home of her very own with lots of love! Sally Girl is a 2-3 year old lab mix.  She weighs 60lbs, and has a moderate activity level. She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. Many of us have often heard the term dogs forgive quickly, and their love is unconditional. Sally Girl is a true testament to this. She was dumped in a cornfield and it took several weeks for her foster mother to gain Sally’s trust. However, once she realized she was in a place where she was secure and humans wanted to help her, this sweet girl began to blossom.

These days, Sally Girl is enjoying running with other dogs in her foster home, and taking naps on the deck in the sunshine. Sally Girl is a friendly dog. Sometimes it takes her a minute or two with newer people, because of her past. However, once someone starts to pet her, she warms right up! In typical lab fashion, she is very loyal to her people and wants to be wherever they are. She has also done very well with children, and possess a gentle trait when in their presence. Sally Girl is good with cats, and walks well on a leash. She has had no accidents in the house and goes outside using the doggy door. Sally Girl is not typically crated at her foster home, but did just fine when she rode in one the day of her spay surgery.  She does fine in the car and usually sprawls out in the back seat.

Sally Girl’s ideal home would be one where her new owners had lots of time to spend with her. She gets really sad when her foster mother doesn’t have as much time to spend with her as she would like. It would be ideal for her new home to have a large fenced in yard so she could roam and explore while being safe.  Sally Girl would love to go to a home with another dog or dogs her size to play with.  She also wouldn’t mind if a cat sibling was included as well.  Sally Girl is described as having a deep soulful look, and her kind, but sad eyes tell a story. The beginning of her story was sad, but she can still have a happy ending. Please fill out an adoption application if you think your home would be the right fit and give Sally Girl the fairytale ending she so deserves.

  • 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.
