My personality

My story

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

Blue-Bloodhound/Shepard male, DOB 12-10-22 (Oct. 2024)
Contact rescuebc@hotmail.com for application.
Blue was saved by a Dog Trainer when she saw him in a high kill shelter. She knew this handsome, kind boy needed a chance at life, not to have his life snuffed out before he's even gotten started. Blue has so much going for him now...he's house trained, crate trained & wheel chair trained. He knows how to pull a wheelchair. He's been in a Service Dog Training course and has over 300 hours on him . He's learning about vehicle manners, how to load up. His biggest challenge has been not getting car sick. He knows about grooming and good care. He's good with other dogs, loves to play. He has lived with a child in a wheelchair for a brief time. Cats seem to be okay with him. He would be considered large in size and will enjoy an active lifestyle. Hiking and play!
Blue's adoption fee is $400 to help cover the medical expenses of getting ready for adoption. For our application, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com Include your location and a phone number for future communication.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Please request an application via email. Please allow 24 hours for a response.

2.

Approve Application

Once your application has been reviewed and approved, we will contact you to arrange a meeting with our pets.

3.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

Visit our pets at a Meet and Greet adoption event. Approved adopters will be able to adopt that day.

4.

Sign Adoption Contract

We will review the medical records and contract. The adoption fee is cash only.

Additional adoption info

The first step in the adoption process is to request an application from rescuebc@hotmail.com. Please allow 1-2 days to receive the application. Please be patient as we are 100% volunteer supported. We will need several days to make the calls on your application. The current pets in the home must be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and annual exams, and currently on heartworm preventative for dogs. You must be 21 years of age and gainfully employed.
Once you are approved, a volunteer will contact you and invite you to a Meet and Greet to visit with a pet. All our pets are fostered in private homes and only come to the event when they have a potential adopter.
Plan to spend 1-2 hours at the Meet and Greet. It takes time to unload our pets and give them an opportunity to relieve themselves. You will have time to visit with a pet to decide if this is the right pet for your family. You will be required to sign a legal contract and we will go over the medical records with you. You will be required to take your new pet to the vet within 7 days of adopting.
We charge an adoption fee for all of our animals. This fee varies depending on the vetting requirements of that particular animal. The adoption fee is cash only.
If you have any questions, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com.
