My story

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

Hi! When I was a puppy my name was Turbo, then I was Apollo when I was adopted, and now my foster dad calls me Alpo, get it?! I'm almost a year old, husky mix, and I weigh almost 60 pounds. I was returned to the rescue because I couldn't live with a cat. Sorry, they just look yummy. I'm a big strong puppy who doesn't know my own strength but I hung out with a 4 year old human and we got along great  



 



I sleep in a crate at night, and stay there when foster dad goes to work. I have two foster sisters who are older, one of them likes to play with me! I go on playdates with other big dogs and do great at the dog park. I do need to learn to be careful around small dogs though. The rescue peeps say I need to work on my leash walking and basic training, whatever that is. Foster dad says I'm a good boy and a fine young man =) I've heard about hiking, that sounds fun. Breweries? I think I'd love that, and I could probably join you on a long run if you're into that! If you want to meet me you can fill out an adoption application and schedule a meet up.  https://therescueddog.org/adopt/adoption-application/

More about this rescue

The founders of The Rescued Dog forged our bond during our volunteer work together at a local dog rescue. We recognized in each other a mutual respect for our human friends and the dogs we were helping to rescue. When the time came to start our own rescue, our collective mission was clear: save at-risk dogs from high-kill shelters and place them in loving, forever homes for the benefit of the dogs and humans alike. We believe the best way to end pet overpopulation and animal cruelty is a unified front with local shelters, other rescue groups and the community.
While The Rescued Dog is currently a foster-based rescue, our long-term goal is to have a kennel and training facility, which will enable us to increase our number of rescues and take time to train and, if needed, rehabilitate dogs in need.
The founders of The Rescued Dog are committed to saving the right dogs for the right people, and offering support and education to ensure a successful forever situation for both our dogs and the humans who adopt them.
Thank you for your support!
