My story

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

Meet Willow!

Age: Senior
Breed: Aussie Shepherd
Weight: 51lbs
Good with: dogs/cats/teens (has not lived with small children)
House trained: yes
Crate trained: does not use a crate, is trusted to free roam when foster is out

Willow is a sweet and mellow girl who is happy to just go with the flow! This gentle senior gal loves pets and belly rubs and never misses a nap. She has excellent house manners and uses a leash well, but would also enjoy a yard of her own. She is dog and cat friendly and is happy to join your pack or be a solo dog, she is happiest with the people she loves!

As with many seniors, Willow is experiencing some signs of arthritis, but she doesn’t let it slow her down. She’s still happy to follow her people around closely inside and outside and goes for short walks daily. She loves to spend time outside laying in the grass and enjoying a breeze.

This lovely pup is looking for a home where her she can be cozy and loved, does she sound like a good fit for you?

Willow is fostered in the Oregon, WI area

**Willow is scheduled for a spay on 9/20, she will be able to go to a home post spay

Additional adoption info

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue providing compassionate care to special needs, senior, and hospice dogs.

Our adoption process begins with a completed application. From there, we will review references and vet records. The next step is a home visit with your family. This visit may be in person or virtual. At that point, if approved, we will set up a meet and greet with available dogs.

All dogs have an adoption fee of $275 for a single dog or $500 for (bonded) pair, unless otherwise noted.

Note: Pairs must be adopted at the same time to get the reduced adoption fee.

-Applications with incomplete information will not be processed.
- All current dogs in the home must be spayed or neutered, up to date on rabies vaccination, up to date on DHLPP, up to date on Heartworm testing and preventative.
- All cats in the home must be spayed or neutered and up to date on a rabies vaccination or wellness exam.
- None of our dogs will be adopted to prospective owners who mislead or fail to provide accurate information on the adoption application and/or the adoption contract. Albert's Dog Lounge reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone.
- You must agree that if you are no longer able to keep your rescue dog for whatever reason, the dog will be returned to Albert's Dog Lounge. The adopter must agree to never attempt to sell or rehome the dog at any point.

Our goal is to place our seniors into permanent, loving homes for the rest of their golden years.

More about this rescue

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue focused on providing loving homes to seniors, special needs, and hospice dogs. We help dogs in need from overcrowded shelters and also from local families who are no longer able to care for their pets.

Albert's Dog Lounge was established in 2017 with the vision to be the stepping stone to a new life for those dogs who are less likely to be rescued, adopted, or at a higher risk for euthanasia.
