Story
Meet Nacho! He is 2 year old, neutered, mixed terrier, who is enthusiastic and happy. He thinks he’s a watch dog, but loves all kids and most women, but unfortunately, he is unsure of most men. He also behaves well around all the farm animals and the other dog and cats. He’d make a great companion for someone with a slower paced/quiet home, who would have more time for him and spoil him. He was rescued from a local dog pound when he was around 6 mos of age. He is fully vetted/vaccinated and potty trained. He even knows several commands.

Story
Louie was adopted as a puppy and returned because when the other dog and Louie would play they would get carried away and bite each other. Come to find out when Louie was returned he had a terrible bacterial infection of his skin. It had raw, oozing lesions that were not treated properly. After many skin cultures and medication he is feeling much better and no more sores. This dog lives just to go bye bye! He listens well, is housebroke, crate trained and 100% cat friendly. He's a big goof at times, so toddlers would probably not be ideal, as that tail would be knocking them down. He shows no aggression with the other dogs. His adoption fee is $250.00 Fill out an app to adopt at www.saveamomrescue.com and be sure your vet knows it's ok to give us a reference. We call for your reference before setting up a meet and greet.
