My story

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

Name: Simon
Breed: Pitbull mix
Age: 9 months
Weight: 55lbs.
Before OMD: We were contacted by one of our vet partners after he was dropped off there and was diagnosed with parvo. We quickly got him transferred to an ER where he stayed until he was well enough to enter a foster home.
Key descriptors: Smart. Comical. Goofy. Sweet.
Energy level: Puppy high – play hard, crash harder. Repeat. PS it will probably remain on the higher end as he grows up.
Pittie smotherness level: Very well-balanced. A great cuddler, but also content to not be on top of you all hours of the day. IYKYK.
What makes us laugh: His ability to both fall asleep and wake up without a moment’s notice. How he loves to sit in the window like a cat and watch the world go by.
What we love: Watching his sheer joy when palling around with his canine foster siblings. How he greets you when you get home with the biggest, happiest smile.
What he loves: Toys. Antlers. Car rides. Walks. “Toys” that are not actually his or toys. Treats. Dogs. People.
Stranger danger? Nope. He loves people and not to brag or anything but he’s getting pretty good at keeping four on the floor while he’s sniffing you and saying hello.
What he knows: Sit. Paw.
What he’s working on: Leash manners. Just a little less mouthing when he gets really amped up. BTW – he loves to learn so he would probably thrive in some structured training classes.
Dogs: Yes, please! He loves them and has totally thrived with a foster sibling.
Cats: Unknown.
Kids: 10+ please!
House-trained: Yes!
Crate-trained: Also, yes!
If he could pick out his ideal family: A family with lots of love and time to give with some kids to play and cuddle with. A dog friend so he can have a BFF. A fenced in yard so he can run around like a wild man.

Simon is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative and microchipped. He is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states. If you’re interested in adopting, please complete an application from our website.

Additional adoption info

One More Dog Rescue (OMD), formerly Ruff Start Happy Tails, requires all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application and agree to a home visit prior to any adoption. Once the application is approved, a meet and greet will be scheduled between the potential adopter (s) and the dog.

When a dog is adopted through One More Dog, an adoption contract must be signed, and we ask that a donation in the amount of $500 ($350 for seniors) be made at the time of adoption to help our rescue cover a portion of the costs we incur through pull fees, vetting, and training.

Applications can be found here: http://www.omdrescue.org/adoptapp.html
*We will adopt to approved applicants (who are able to meet & adopt in person) who live in CT and the surrounding areas: New England, New York, and New Jersey.
