Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Angus is a very sad story... This poor dog is 9 years old and yes just had a litter of puppies. Now don't get me wrong Angus was a 5 star Momma to her pups, and the wonderful lady who rescued all of them couldn't say enough good things about Miss Angus.
After Angus's people passed the family that had inherited her threatened to shoot her if she wasn't gone. A kind neighbor took her in and let her have her puppies on her property and made sure they were all ok.
Angus's puppies are now getting ready for adoption and so is she. This dog has perfect house manners, you can trust her with your car keys so when you lose them she will hand you the spare. She loves everyone, everything and will be fine in all homes.
Who is looking for a elderly lady who still has plenty of spunk and is ready to chill with you on the couch for all your favorite shows, or take a ride up to your favorite mountain. You can ski... she is glad to hold your spot for lunch!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at http://www.bigfluffydogs.com/online-app.php. Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process. NOTE TO EMAILERS FROM ADOPT-A-PET: WE DO NOT RESPOND TO EMAIL INQUIRIES WITHOUT AN APPLICATION. WE REGRET WE CANNOT RESPOND TO EVERY EMAIL, BUT UNLESS YOU FILL OUT AN APPLICATION, WE DO NOT KNOW YOU EXIST. All known information about an individual dog is provided in it's listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters must understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for:1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only "hold it" for one hour per month of age (ex. a 4 month old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break).2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old, to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise.3.) Socialization: The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home.4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded tenfold, for years to come.Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy.Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time consuming, and can be expensive.All Dogs Require:Supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well socialized dog is more than worth the effort put in to get them there.
