Adopt a pet

Sporting his signature badger look, Rain is a bundle of fun and joy, so much so that we are pawsitive the whole room lights up in anticipation of Rain. This cutie pie loves nothing more than to play, and he can play with ANYTHING! Toys and chews? Absolutely! Other dogs of any size? OMG that is the best! However, just because Rain loves to play doesn’t mean he is not an excellent student. In fact, Rain learns best when training involves any type of treat, but especially cheese! He’s already leash trained, crate trained, and knows “sit.” He’s very attentive when spoken to, and adores human attention. This active boy is an excellent playmate, and he would love love love to have his very own furever canine sibling to hang out and play with in a secure fenced yard. Are you ready for a lifetime of play and joy with Rain?

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
