Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Bruce! A 3 year old young adult dog who lacks confidence and socialization. Bruce is amazingly sweet, Submissive and fairly easy for his breed. I have enjoyed working with Bruce and watching his transformation happen. Exceeding each goal every time but patience is a must! Bruce has met hundreds of folks and kids and done amazing only after a few times of meeting them. Playful, loving, social, happy, outgoing. and with space and time very social. Bruce is dog, cat, all critter friendly, walks amazing on leash, muzzle trained, and super star with basic commands. Bruce needs an active breed experience owner who will continue to help him overcome his fears and challenges while he continues to exceed with training. A home with at least another active playful confidence dog, a nice fence in back yard, as well as a avid walker/jogger/runner, and plenty of mental enrichment work his breed requires is a must. Bruce is house and crate trained, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto, core as well as rabies, de-wormed, fecal tested negative, micro-chipped, neutered, and on monthly heart-worm flea/tick prevention.

We believe training is an ongoing process that needs to be worked on daily. New issues that arise, need to be addressed and/or rewarded. Understanding that continued training is a lifetime commitment, is very important. Out-of-state adopters are welcome at the adopter's expense. Meet & Greets are a required before proceeding with an adoption. We DO NOT ship any of our pets.

More about this rescue
Every animal in our care comes to us with their own story. Many of them have had it harder than others, and have scars that need a healing touch. What they all have in common, is that they came to us from other rescues/shelters that felt they couldn’t take on their individual needs, and give them the necessary care needed to help them bloom into family pets. Most pets we welcome into our program, need extensive behavior and/or medical care before they are ready for their forever homes. We provide each pet with an unlimited amount of time to recover, along with individualized care and training customized to there needs.
We at Animal House Sanctuary love a challenge and have a soft spot for these special pets in need. Most of all, we love seeing each individual pet change into the family pet they were always meant to be. Watching this firsthand, is beyond rewarding and fills us with a joy that cannot be described in words.
We are a 501(c) Licensed Nonprofit organization that is ran 100% by Volunteers. Our mission is to help homeless animals find great forever homes. Our heart is with the community, helping families keep their pets at home. We are involved with informing our local community about the importance of spaying/neutering their pets. We also help feed the homeless and their pets. Senior pets are precious and dear to our hearts which is why we are involved with the Hospice Heaven program. This consists of pulling older cats and dogs from high kill shelters and placing them in a loving home. This often includes matching senior pets with a Senior Adaptor. Sharing joy and respect for all precious life is something that we love doing, and will continue to do, for it fills our hearts.
