Adoption News!
Bunny and Rocky -ADOPTION PENDING!
These two adorable pups have always been together and were the much-loved pets of someone who is no longer able to give them the attention and care they deserve. So we need to find Bunny and Rocky a new forever home together. They are both young -- Bunny, the female white and tan Shih Tzu, was born in December, 2022. Rocky, the male Yorkie, was born in April, 2023. Bunny weighs a little under 7 pounds, and Rocky weighs 14. Little Bunny is missing an eye, as a result of being attacked by a large dog. Surgeries to save it were unfortunately unsuccessful. Both these little ones are loving, playful, and friendly. They are good with kids and other dogs, although, not surprisingly, Bunny is wary of large ones. They have both had regular vet care and have been kept healthy and well groomed. All their accessories and supplies can go to their new home with them.
Dakota - ADOPTED!
Dakota’s foster mom wants everyone to know that this merle/chocolate, fluffy, and super-soft cocker spaniel mix is a bundle of joy wrapped in fur. At about 5 years old, Dakota is a neutered male who is up to date on all his vaccinations. He’s a cheerful companion that finds joy in simple pleasures like leisurely walks, car rides, cuddle sessions, and playful antics with his favorite squeaky toy affectionately referred to as his "baby." Dakota forms strong bonds and can become quite clingy, making him an ideal companion for someone who spends a lot of time at home, such as a retiree or someone who works from home. His need for a close companion stems from his insecurities, which also means he's better off as the only dog in his new home. This setting will provide him with the calm and stable environment he needs to thrive. Given his personality and needs, Dakota would fit best in a home without young children and as the only dog.
As Dakota continues to blossom under the care of his foster family, he’s showing great progress with potty training, though he’ll need a patient and understanding adopter willing to continue guiding him towards perfection. His dietary needs are specific but easy to manage, thriving on a mix of wet and dry food. Weighing in at around 30 pounds, he’s the perfect medium-sized companion with a heart as big as his smile.
Dakota has been working closely with a trainer to navigate through some attachment issues, revealing that he’s a dog with a lot of love to give, but one who also requires the comfort and security of having his people nearby. This means Dakota is looking for a home where someone is present more often than not, as he tends to get anxious when left alone. He’s not a fan of crates, but he’s shown to be well-behaved when having access to spaces like the living room and kitchen in his foster home. His early experiences, marked by extended periods in a kennel, led him to gnaw his little teeth in a bid for freedom. Since finding sanctuary with his foster family, Dakota has not seen the inside of a kennel and has shown tremendous progress, adapting well to the warmth and comfort of a loving home.
If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and fluffy friend who will make every day brighter, Dakota could be the perfect addition to your home. His journey hasn’t been the easiest, but with the right companion, Dakota is ready to start a new chapter filled with love, walks, and plenty of squeaky toy adventures.
Brownie - ADOPTED!
Brownie is an adorable 5-year-old Shih Tzu mix, weighing 13 pounds. He is housetrained and very well-mannered. While he walks well on a leash, his favorite pastime is hanging out or snuggling with his human. Oh, and eating treats! He is very laid back and would do well in a low-energy home. He gets along well with other dogs, cats and other small animals. Although he doesn't live with children, he has done well with the ones he has met. Brownie's foster mom calls him the perfect dog! With Brownie's big heart and affectionate nature, he will be a wonderful addition to a loving home.
Churchill - ADOPTED!
Churchill is an ll-pound, 8-year-old Yorkie mix. He seems to want to meet and play with other dogs, but we haven’t had a chance to try him in a foster home yet. He was turned in to the shelter by his owner a week ago (6/21/24) and immediately came to SARG. He has been checked by our vet and appears to be a healthy boy. We can tell that Churchill likes to be with people and to be held.
Zero - ADOPTED!
Zero is a male Australian shepherd mix, nearly all white, with striking blue eyes and bunny-rabbit ears. He is still a puppy, but at 8 months old (as of mid-December), he's beginning to outgrow the puppy chewing phase. He weighs around 30 pounds at this point. Zero was rescued from someone who intended to have him euthanized because he is deaf. He is a happy boy and a quick learner. He gets along well with the other three dogs in his foster home, and he is picking up good behavior by following their lead. We're not sure about his opinion of cats or toddlers, but we do know that he is friendly, loves people in general, and likes to be with his people. Zero was neutered December 18 and is ready for his next adventure with a loving forever family.
