A little about them

Dobie is a handsome brindle boy who is thriving in a training program focused on impulse control and basic obedience. He is loyal, affectionate, athletic, and prefers female dogs. He was found as a stray in January 2024 and joined the rescue on Valentine’s Day 2024.

Ideal Home

Dobie needs an adopter who will continue his training program and receive approval from the training team. The rescue carefully matches animals with households and requires existing pets to be fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered.

Ongoing Health

The adoption fee includes age-appropriate vaccinations, spay/neuter surgery, a heartworm snap test for dogs six months and older, a microchip, deworming, flea and tick prevention at intake, and antibiotics if medically needed. Routine elective dental care is not included; medically necessary dental treatment may be covered.

Training & Support

Dobie is making good decisions and learning the skills needed to become a great companion dog. His adopter must agree to continue his training program.
