My story

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

Raymond (formerly Nyx) is 8 months old and weigh in at 35lbs. He is pretty close to the size he will finish at.

Raymond is friendly with EVERYONE, people and pets.
He is crate trained, leash trained, knows "heel" and "go potty," will go up and down the kiddie slide, and is learning to jump through a hula hoop. He is a very smart boy and loves learning. Even the occasionally grumpy chihuahua in the house fell in love with him on his first day in the foster home (after showing her teethsies for about an hour). He is great at following cues. She told him he was too much puppy, so he settles down around her and they share the indoor/outdoor cushions.

Raymond is the poster child for "great family dog."

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We do our best to match up potential adopters with just the right pet as we want to ensure a lifelong placement for the rescued animal. Our adoption process includes an initial application, with home visit, reference and vet checks. If the match is a good one, we then have an adoption contract that is executed. We have a commitment not only to our adopted dogs, but also to the families that adopt them, and we are always available to help with the transition to a new home. We check in during the first few weeks to answer any questions or help with any issues - or to just give you someone to brag to about your new baby. We can't hear that too much!

More about this rescue

Shelter2Rescue Coalition is an all-volunteer rescue organization dedicated to the safe-rehoming of shelter animals. We started as a rescue facilitation organization, helping rural shelters publicize their at-risk dogs, thereby dramatically reducing the need to euthanize for space. Then, as we worked with more shelters, it became very apparent that if we could just buy the dogs up for euthanasia just a little more time, you could save even more lives. The 72-hour hold limit at most shelters just wasn't enough for most dogs to get out. Therefore, we expanded and built partnerships with boarding facilities, transport organizations and other nationwide rescues in order to be able to provide a temporary safe haven for dogs out of time. We have now expanded Shelter2Rescue Coalition to include our own adoption program. Since June 2007, through facilitation and adoption, Shelter2Rescue Coalition volunteers have saved over 2000 dogs and cats.
