My personality

My story

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

Leo says, “Don’t mistake my wrinkled brow for worry. With my looks and joyful personality, I’ve got nothin’ to worry about.” Meet Leo, a transfer from the overcrowded shelters in WV. Leo already knows his "sit" and “down” commands. Estimated to be just about a year old and around 50 lbs., Leo loves to fetch and is learning to exchange the ball for a treat. During his first opportunity to move up in the world, he joined a couple and their cats, but the over-exuberant Leo began typical teenage antics landing nips and bites on his caretakers' arms (although he did not exhibit that behavior at the shelter or with volunteers) and upsetting the dynamic with the cats. We always learn more when people give a dog a try and with what was gleaned, there are no cats in Leo's future and he needs an experienced person who can work with him and his overly - exuberant behavior. He loves to sniff and hunt for critters in our fields around the shelter, and that seems to be more enriching than a boring walk!

How To Adopt An Angel

You've fallen in love with one of our Angels and you'd like to take him or her home with you. This is what you must do:
1.) Email Sandy at sandraschiller3008@gmail.com and make an appointment to visit our facility and visit with our Angels. You are welcome to bring your dog to meet your potential new family member, as long they are kept on a leash.
2.) Complete an adoption application and agreement at our office. Fees: Adult dogs are $175. Puppies are $200. All dogs are microchipped.
3.) Angel Ridge Animal Rescue will review your application and check references.
4.) In some cases, such as the adoption of a special needs animal, we may require a home check before adoption, or we may want to visit the home after the adoption.
5.) Once you have completed the adoption procedure, you may take your special new family member home. You may also contact us if you need our help.

Visiting hours are Saturday & Sunday, 12:00 to 3:00
M-F 3-5:00, but please make an appointment so we know you are coming!
