My story

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

**Potential adopters must fill out the questionnaire at the end of the bio and forward to graciabutter@gmail.com.

Cash is a 7-month-old Lab/Shepherd mix. Along with his sister Ruby, Cash came to us from a horrible situation where he lived in a crate outside and had to compete for food with his siblings. He was dirty, smelly, and malnourished but instantly opened his heart to being loved on. Cash has put on weight nicely and is learning his manners. He’s also doing well with potty training. He is an absolute love and follows his person around everywhere. Once he gets to know them, he gets along well with other dogs, big and small, but can get a little excitable and overstimulated when first meeting them.

Animal Rescue Recon makes sure that each dog is current on its vaccinations, has been or will be spayed or neutered, and is microchipped to help keep pets out of the shelters and get them back home where they belong.

****Answers to the questionnaire must be emailed to GraciaButter@gmail.com.

• Do you have a plan in place in the event that something happens and you are no longer able to care for the dog?
• Prior to adoption, an up-close video of your fenced yard will be required - the entire perimeter including gates and the bottom of the fencing. Yard must be free of foxtails and fully secured.
• Home check may be performed
