My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sammy is an Australian Shepherd/Lab mix. He is approximately 1 year old and weighs 69 pounds. He was found running on a highway and was scared to death. A lovely couple picked him up and had his shots done. Sammy is neutered and would do better with a family with no children. He loves to play with other dogs and has lots of energy to run and play. He is a great medium sized dog and has a gorgeous coat and beautiful eyes.

In concern for families with small children, we will not adopt a dog to a home with any child under the age of 5.

More about this rescue

St. Cloud's Rescue is a 501c-3 non-profit organization dedicated to providing care and adoption services for Saint Bernards and other large breed dogs. Our dogs are not "for sale", nor do you "buy" them. They are available to be adopted for a donation. Before they leave our care all dogs are vaccinated, spayed/neutered and on all appropriate heartworm, tick, flea medications. We also do house checks of the potential adopters, check veterinary and personal references and do introductions.

St. Cloud’s Rescue is operated and run by Rosemary Adkins Cloud and her husband, Chuck. St Cloud’s operates without the benefit of foster homes. All the dogs live on the premises in McKinney, Texas. We house between 45-55 dogs at a time.

We rescue as many Saints as we can properly take care of from kill shelters in Texas, Oklahoma Louisiana and even as far away as Alabama and Georgia. We also take surrendered Saints so they do not end up in kill shelters. Our mission is to save as many of these magnificent dogs as we possibly can.

During 2014 we rehomed 64 dogs. We have been rescuing dogs since 2003 and have rehomed over 600 dogs.

We have placed 11 dogs in special need homes with children with autism or downs syndrome.

We use over 80 lb. of dog food a day and have vet bills during the year of over $20,000.

Any donation is appreciated in helping us continue to save the lives of so many animals.
