Quoted: Bump for urgent need. Christmas is approaching, give your family a gift that has lasting value rather than useless trinkets that will be soon forgotten. Nothing you can pick up at the mall and put under the tree comes even close…. A better quality of life for you and yours is just a PM away. Duke This right here. This is the truth. A dog adds more value to a family than any possession you could give, beyond shelter, clothing and food. No toy or game system measures up. Those things don't love. |

As a reminder to folks who may be on the fence... 1. This dog is a known quantity. Unlike most dogs you may see at the shelter and visit with briefly before making a decision, he has been living and interacting with a family daily. He has proven to be social with other animals and eager to please his human caretakers. This is not a trivial point. 2. As with other SFDR placements, the support network and follow-up engagement is second to none. 3. All transportation, medical readiness and integration needs come with the dog. Truly a complete package that cannot be matched by any other rescue. 4. Finally, SFDR is not in the volume business. Dogs that are offered for adoption are a select few. They are special, unique and unlikely to be found elsewhere. It costs nothing to make an inquiry and no commitment is required or expected. Reach out to Kitties and have a pleasant chat. Talk about your concerns and desires/expectations. I have found that she has tremendous insight concerning the pairing of human and animal. This may be the dog for you, but either way, the time spent will be enjoyable and well worth the effort. Duke |

After the passing of Scooter in August, I reached out to a rescue shelter in Amelia OH, and got another Jack Russell, Joe Dirt aka Joey. Those folks had nothing but absolutely great things to say about Mark/Joker1 and subsequent good folks who have continued SFDR. Joey defends the entire apartment block btw. Good doggie!! |

That won't do. Let's get you a good boy. |

Quoted: @Icemann0 says he listens and tries to please. Obviously still a pup, so going to have pup moments, but there's not much better dogs in the world than GSD mixes. He looks to me like he has some lab in him. His sister shows the GSD more. GSD mixes are where it's at...somehow combining the best of both breeds without watering down the attributes of either. Mine keeping watch on his lake... Winter and Summer version. Attached File Attached File |

He reminds me soooooo much of a dog that my wife and I saved and re-homed that I still miss. We had three dogs (one being a puppy) and just couldn't take him. If you wouldn't have claimed this cute fella I was afraid I was going to, and I shouldn't. |

Quoted: We are officially claiming him. Too bad I didn't find out, sooner we would gladly take both. & if things don't work out for his sister then we will still welcome her here. WELL DONE! I showed this thread to my wife and we considered giving him a home. He looks a lot like our 2 dogs already. Happy for you

I shouldn't, either, but he's a damn good looking dog, you know? |

Quoted: UPDATE: The boy dog is CLAIMED. He is going to JGrelle in Kansas! ~~ We would love for him to go to a good home and not the shelter! Well behaved. Wants to please. Even housebroken, best we can tell. He would be thankful for a loving home where he could be your best boy. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/118038/Good_boy_JPG-2602399.jpg Wife and I are really looking forward to welcoming the guy to his new home, We are trying to figure out a name for him, we welcome any suggestions? Our Previous dogs male dogs were Puller (as in Chesty Puller), George & Austin. So far my wife Likes Charlie, but he doesn't look like a Charlie to me. |
