My Story

Shaggy is a beautiful, 1 yr old, Goldendoodle who was found in a high kill shelter. The kind lady pulled him from certain death and brought him back to her no-kill shelter. Then, she called me. He was an owner surrender and I'm guessing they might have lost their home and couldn't bring him with them. He has a great disposition and will make a great family pet. If you are interested in adopting this handsome boy, please fill out the application below. We require a fenced yard if there are kids under the age of 12 in the home.


Adopting a dog that has been moved from a home to a shelter and then to a rescue is not for everyone. It takes time and patience to make that dog feel at home in his new environment. It takes at least 1 week and usually up to a month for a dog to acclimate to your schedule and home. An animal shelter is the most stressful place for a dog to be, with other dogs barking and not knowing what is happening around them. Some dogs come to their new home scared and timid. They will sometimes take several days before they start eating and have anything to do with the new adopters.


PLEASE, if you aren't willing to work with your new rescue and let them get to know you at their own pace, please don't apply for one of my dogs. Returning a dog within 24-48 hours of picking it up is hard on the dog and hard on the rescuer. Go to a breeder if you want a cute little puppy that wags its tail when he sees you. He hasn't been through what a rescue dog has been through.


It's not easy rescuing a dog. It takes patience and time and LOVE. These dogs need love and understanding, not another rejection.
