Bilbo~Adopted

Bilbo is an adorable little Shepherd mix who came barreling out of nowhere in downtown Little Rock after a family outing to a b-ball game. Bilbo ran down the street and jumped right in to the arms of his chosen rescuer. He had no collar but he was sparkling clean and didn’t look like he'd been on the street very long. His chosen rescuer was coerced with licks, puppy breath, and snuggles into taking him home. Bilbo didn’t have any ID, and had not been micro chipped. His rescuers drove the neighborhood looking for signs, but nothing could be found. When his original family couldn’t be located, his new foster family even considered keeping him, especially as Max the family dog LOVES him. However, reality has set in that right now Bilbo is one dog too many for the busy household. Bilbo is an independent rescue supported by DogsOnly, so he will not be available to meet every Saturday except for holiday weekends at the DogsOnly adoption showing at Petco on Chenal Parkway across from Target and Home Depot. To learn more about Bilbo, you can also contact DogsOnly by sending an email to [email protected]. You are encouraged to submit an online adoption application by clicking the orange colored links at the top or bottom of Bilbo’s official bio page located at www.dogsonly.org/545pop.html. We always try and answer all emails within 24 hours. All of our young and adult dogs require a 2 week home visit before finalizing the adoption process. This is to help ensure it is a good match for all involved without making a final commitment. Puppies are not available to go on home visits. All of our rescues are in private homes and not available to be visited outside of showing times. All DogsOnly volunteer fosters work with our rescues to ensure they are crate trained and most are also housetrained. Only one of the DogsOnly foster families have cats so we can only make our best guess as to how our rescues would do with cats. We rescue from high kill shelters and once accepted into our Independent, none of our rescues are euthanized. We provide for all their vet care, socialization and training until an appropriate home can be found. An adoption fee is usually involved which helps to cover the cost of medical care and vaccinations. DogsOnly relies solely on donations and are a 501(c)3 private Humane Society. Our mission is to rescue dogs that most other groups are not interested in due to their size, breed, age, health or other various reasons. This does not mean that there is something wrong with any of our rescued companions, it just means we help the ones others tend to leave behind. Thank you for your interest in rescue and in saving the life of a dog. Every day in the United States, 11,000 dogs die. Why Buy When You Can Save? Save a Rescued Dog.
