My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.



NOTE- SNOWMAN IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR ANOTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW.

Ah, the beautiful Snowman - so much to say. This dog is a jewel. The quintessential 'gentle giant'. A big baby. Snowman came to us in terrible shape. He only weighed 45 lbs. His coat extremely matted, and intact. Thankfully, he was heartworm negative. For that we are grateful. From the minute he walked into our facility, his life began to change. It started with a nice bath, getting all his vaccines up to date, his heartworm test, and all his preventatives being brought on board. Next, we started on those mats. He was so good and cooperative as we worked to get them out - even though I'm sure it hurt. During all of this, you could literally see the relief on his face, and the happiness to be WITH someone, someone who cared. He's put on 20 lbs; needs more, but he looks so much better already. Snowman is a total sweetheart, loves other pups and people. He is in foster care with a foster brother and is going to doggy daycare with him and LOVES it! They have nothing but great things to say about him! He is housetrained, crate trained - though doesn't need to be. THIS DOG IS FABULOUS! He will make a fantastic family dog. He'd love to know what a family who truly loves him. He is about 3 years old, fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $300.
