Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FPJo4fqair8 Napoleon is a little dog in a big dog body. He has no problem hanging with the big dogs but is also good with little dogs and cats. He does think he owns all the food but he never attacks, he just growls sometimes. He is not a big barker despite being a little dog. He only barks when there is a reason to. He walks well on the leash and he is mostly potty trained (goes to the door) but will probably need some retraining in a new environment. He is a sweet little boy who is active enough to go on long walks but also small enough to not need a ton of exercise to be happy. He loves to cuddle and sleep in bed with me. He is a young adult so maybe 2-3 years old. He was dumped in a rural neighborhood where he was bound to be eating by coyotes or hit by a car. The house that he ran to for help gave him food and water but they wouldn't even bring him inside to keep him safe so I had to go pick him up in the middle of the night. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue/reviews Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Seattle/Tacoma) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Illinois (Vandalia) - Indiana (Spiceland) - Ohio (Columbus) - Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) Vetting: neutered, heartworm tested (negative), on monthly heartworm prevention, on monthly flea and tick prevention, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 2, lepto vaccine x 2, microchipped, dewormed. Adoption fee: $550 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma) Adoption application: https://form.jotform.com/82677586784176 Desiderata Rescue is Oklahoma Licensed Rescue #95
