My personality

My story

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

Arnie needs two week foster, until his scheduled dental surgery. He will then be available for adoption. His foster home should be easy going. He is a very gentle, 8yr old, 15lb boy that recently found himself without the only person he has ever known. His owner has Alzheimer’s so was placed into a care facility. The immediate and extended family does not want Arnie so he was dropped off at a local vet to be euthanized. He is a little timid but so sweet, so the vet clinic reached out to us for help. Arnie is a wonderful little guy that has plenty of good years left to provide someone special with a loving, loyal companionship. Arnie is crate trained, house trained and leash trained. He is wonderful with other dogs and cats so other animals in the home would be fine. He is a timid boy and gets startled easy, although once he feels safe his confidence will start to show. It would be great if there was a fenced yard. Kids must be over 14yrs old. He’d be the perfect companion for a retired person or senior folks. During foster, all supplies are provided

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters should email info@k9rr.org to request an application. Once complete, the application can be returned via email and quickly reviewed. If approved, we then invite potential adopters to visit with one or more of the dogs that interest them. If the meet and greet goes well, we encourage a week long "trial adoption" to ensure a good match. During that week we communicate often and are available for support and guidance, via phone or email, 24/7.

Unless otherwise specified, K9 R&R adoption fees range from $350-$500 and include all vetting and microchip. We also provide ongoing training tips and help as needed, for the life of the dogs.

K9 R&R is a non-profit, volunteer based organization.

More about this rescue

K9 R&R rescues dogs from shelters and other various facilities across the nation, but focusing primarily on those throughout the west coast. In addition, we help re-home family pets of owners who can no longer care for them. K9 R&R assesses and works with every dog prior to adopting them out and continues to provide support to adopters for the entire life of the dog. K9 Rescue & Rehab was founded with the desire to provide a more thorough, inclusive, supportive approach to dog rescue and re-homing. When adopting a K9 R&R dog, you are not only adding a new family member, but are becoming part of an extended family that is always there to support you in hard times and celebrate with you in joyful ones.
