My story

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

FAB FIVE
Rafiki, Sarabi, Simba, Nala & Mufasa-Born December 2011, GSD & Golden Retriever mix, spayed & neutered, rabies vaccinated with tags/certificates….3 males, 2 females
We took on the challenge of re-homing these older pups, which came from a very difficult situation, to say the least. At one time, there were 19 dogs on this property. They each were extremely underweight, full of fleas so bad there was hair loss, extreme in a couple of them & barely socialized. Under care from the staff at PAWS, they have been de-wormed, fed large quantities of food & have begun gaining weight, fleas gotten rid of with their coats growing back in soft & shiny and with lots of love, time spent & patience, they are coming around & we believe they are going to be wonderful companions! It has taken us several weeks to get them to the place where they are ready to go into new homes. They each have their own distinct personality & are full of love to give. With continued love & patience, good food & care, they will be able to reach their full potential, becoming absolutely beautiful dogs you will be proud to have as a part of your family.
**Rafiki has an exhuberant personality=full of energy & loves to give kisses! He's a great dog!*
