Story
From Shaggy#2's Foster Mom: "Who can resist that happy FACE!!!!???? Shaggy #2 is a absolutely loving boy! His tail is always wagging and he seems to be smiling. Truth be told he hasn't had the best life before he was surrendered to rescue. He did endure of life a neglect and thankfully we were able to get him all the medical, vetting, love, and stability he deserves. He is feeling so much better and enjoying all the perks of living in foster. He gets walks, couch time, plenty of treats, snuggles and belly rubs! He does have limited vision but gets around fine. He loves his stuffies and carries them around like babies! (so cute), While his age classifies him as a senior he is rather robust and has significant strength on his strolls."
Shaggy#2 gets along with other dogs and does not bother cats. He know how to sit and shake and is housebroken. Shaggy#2 is about 11 years old and 35 pounds. Please help Shaggy#2 find a loving home to live out his golden years.
Update: During his vet visit, Shaggy was also found to have some asthma. The vet placed him on over the counter Benadryl which he will need to be on for the rest of his life. Because of this, it is felt he would not be a good candidate to undergo anesthesia for any cataract surgery.
*Please note we currently have two dogs with similar names. Please refer to this dog as Shaggy#2 when filling out your application or emailing to avoid any confusions or delays in processing.*
We do NOT ship our animals. All adoptive families must travel to us to meet their adoptive dog/cat. Applicants must live within a 2 hour radius from Sparta/Andover (07871/07821).
Please understand that we are an animal shelter and thus unable to say whether the dogs are housebroken as they are not in homes.
If you are interested in adopting, we encourage you to please submit an application on our website today so that we can try and process and pre-approve any potential adopters prior to our next adoption event.
