DOG'S DESCRIPTION:  HI THERE!  I am watching every day for you to come and take me home. I am ready to learn and will be so excited to meet you. The days go by and I am waiting to go home and become your one and only. It is kind of boring in this kennel and I keep hoping you will come to get me soon.  I love walks and would love to be outside and see the beautiful fall leaves. Then come home and snuggle beside you. I am waiting fo  meet you...Rosemary is a spirited and playful 2-year-old Mountain Cur/Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her boundless energy. Weighing in at 45 lbs, this lovely girl is seeking a special someone with an abundance of dog-savvy knowledge to help her blossom into the amazing canine companion she is destined to be. Rosemary is a bit of a rough-and-tumble player, exhibiting puppy-like behavior and mannerisms that make her endearing and full of character. While she may play hard, her intentions are pure, and she is always eager to please. She has already mastered the art of sitting and is diligently learning the art of lying down, showcasing her impressive intelligence and attentiveness.

Rosemary's potential is boundless, and she is looking for a person who can channel her exuberance into positive experiences. She occasionally fixates on other dogs during walks, but with the right guidance, she can learn to focus on her person. She has a keen mind and a deep desire to bond, making her an ideal companion for someone who understands her needs. If you're ready to open your heart and home to Rosemary, contact us today to arrange a meet-and-greet with this charming and vivacious pup. Together, you can embark on a journey of companionship and mutual growth that promises to be as rewarding as it is heartwarming.

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.       

Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.org

Additional adoption info

Please, note that we do receive large number of applications for certain litters, and as much as we would like to, we can't always get back to everyone. We appreciate your understanding as all volunteer run organization.

Fill out an adoption questionnaire, found at https://k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt (please note, completion of the Adoption Questionnaire does not guarantee adoption- it is the first step in our adoption process).

· An adoption counselor will call you to review your application.

· The adoption counselor will call your reference, landlord/condo association, and veterinarian (if applicable).

· The entire household should be willing and present for a home visit.

· The adoption counselor will schedule a time for you, your family, and any other pets to meet the dog(s) you've applied for.

Once approved, you will need to finalize your adoption by completing an adoption contract and paying the adoption fee in cash or check. At that time, available medical records will be provided along with a variety of other information.

More about this rescue

K-9 Lifesavers is an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit organization that rescues homeless and abandoned dogs. We save canines that are scheduled for euthanasia from high kill shelters, where there are typically held only for 3-7 days. K-9 Lifesavers also strives to educate the importance of responsible dog ownership, including spay/neuter, training, and pet nutrition.

K-9 Lifesavers relies primarily upon our dedicated foster families since we do not operate a shelter. These homes provide loving, temporary care until our rescues find their forever homes. We are always looking for foster families.

Please visit our website at www.k-9lifesavers.org for additional information about K-9 Lifesavers. The website lists our available dogs, volunteer opportunities, foster information, and various ways to donate.

Please help us rescue more canines waiting for their second chance at life with a forever home! Adopt a rescue, foster, volunteer, or donate!
