COURTESY POST FOR A VERY SPECIAL BOY!
Papi is a 7-year-old Staffordshire Terrier that needs a forever home. He has a story that most won't believe and is incredibly sad. Papi has lived his entire life in a kennel. He has never experienced his own person, couch, bed, or backyard. He quite simply was failed. He was first failed by the people who promised to raise him and give him all the things that he deserved. Papi was then failed a second time by a local rescue in Lincoln Nebraska that took him in and promised him a home. They did not do what a rescue is supposed to do when they take responsibility of an animal in need. This rescue left Papi in a kennel run without any daily social interaction with other dogs and very little interaction with people. They did very little to get his information out to the public. They gave up on him. To say that we are amazed that Papi is as kind and gentle as he is...well that is an understatement. Papi was deemed a dangerous dog and that sealed his fate. He was not trained. He was not tested with other animals. He was labeled and due to that, he sat waiting. He still would be waiting had I not pulled him from this awful life. He would still be sitting there had Joe not taken a leap of faith in this unbelievable dog. Shockingly enough the location that boarded Papi had a trainer on site but the rescue did not care enough to do the work and have anyone work with Papi to see who he really was. It's sad and it makes me so angry. So much time wasted. Papi is now in Glenwood Iowa at S&B Kountry Kennel with Joe and living a life so much better than before but still is not what I wish for him....he needs the couch and the person. Papi is not a dangerous dog, he is quite the opposite.
If you are interested in adopting Papi or would like more information please email taraschmidt74@gmail.com

We do not have a facility. All of our animals are in volunteer foster homes. Once an application is pre-approved (contingent upon a home check) we will contact applicants that are a good match and set up a time for a meet. At that time we are happy to answer all of your questions. No inquiries prior to that please. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, examined by a vet, up-to-date on vaccinations, on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchipped. We adopt our animals as strictly inside companion pets. We will do a veterinarian reference check and a home safety check. We are located in Omaha, NE and we do not ship our animals. We are all volunteers so please be patient with us. Our requested adoption fees help go towards medical expenses, food, transportation, toys, and other supplies for our animals. We are a state licensed, 501c3 nonprofit rescue and the adoption donation may be tax deductible for you. Thank you for choosing adoption!!
