My story

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

Looking for an eager, goofy pup who wants to learn and to please? That's me, Oso! I love kids, I love my walks, am about a year and a half old, I'm housetrained, crate trained and now am also leash trained! What's next??? Bring it on! I also love finding sticks on the ground and taking them with me- guess you'll want to work on that. next I am a large pup - I was 70 lbs in early May and am still growing.

Did you know that I like to talk? Yep, I do.

I am a work-in-progress regarding doggie manners with other dogs but am never aggressive - I just never was taught the right way. Oh...remember that I like those sticks? I like them because I love to chew on things. My foster mom always puts me in my crate when she is gone to make sure she sets me up for success (a fancy way to say that she keeps me from chewing on things).

TLRD isn't sure of my story and I'm doing all I can to move on - why dwell on the past? The theory is that my owners were evicted and I was left behind. I was running loose in a neighborhood for a few days when a nice lady happened to walk across the street. I liked her and she was able to catch me.

Ready for puppy energy? Ready for a working dog who wants to work for you and please you? Then you are in the right spot! Fill out an application for me today!

Additional adoption info

All of our animals come fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered (if old enough), and microchipped. Puppies and kittens will be spayed/neutered and have all shots when they are old enough. There is an Adoption application, a quick phone interview to make sure it is a good fit, a meet and greet with the dog, then a home check, and an adoption contract. We ask for a $400 donation for adult dogs, and $500 for puppies at the time of adoption so that we can save other dogs from the shelter. The first step is to fill out an app here: https://thelittlereddog.org/adoption-form

More about this rescue

Dogs are man's best friend, but it is not always the other way around. The Little Red Dog was founded in memory of a little red American Pit Bull Terrier who did not make it. If you are familiar with the Michael Vick dog fighting case chronicled in The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption. The Little Red Dog was brutally beaten to death by Vick and his cronies because she didn't want to fight.

The Little Red Dog rescues dogs; red, blue, tan, white, brown, black and all colors in between. We do not discriminate against ANY breed; that's because we are a real rescue, and we will help as many animals as we can. Our primary goal is to get them into loving homes. Our hope that some day all of them make it, but most of all, we will never forget the Little Red Dog and many others who did not.
