Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.This dog will be at Palo Alto Pet Food Express on Saturday, September 21st, 12-3pm or until adopted. If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered. Adoption Fee: $700 Apple Cider is a 9 month old Aussie-Bernie mix who is ready to spice up your life! Cider was rescued from the shelter by one of our volunteers. We don’t know how this handsome dude landed behind bars, but we know his journey ahead is as bright as the sun! We expect Cider to be in the 60-70 pound range as a full grown adult, as he currently weighs 53 pounds. Prepare for a “dog who is a little too big to be a lapdog but who doesn’t believe us when we tell him that!” Serve yourself a glass of the sweetest dog ever today! Apple Cider is a goofy dude with a tail that would never stop wagging if he had one (he has a docked tail) and a smile that never leaves his face. He loves being near his people, but he makes best friends in seconds of meeting new people as well! He wins over even the most dog-skeptical humans. Apple loves his walks and is the perfect size for adventures. Whether you’re strolling through a pumpkin patch, camping under the stars, or heading to the park, Cider is ready to join you! Apple is great with other dogs and loves getting his zoomies on. However, he’s also just as content to lounge the hours away. As long as his people are in his sights, he is happy! Apple Cider is so sweet and loves affection, but is also such a happy and content guy. As long as you give him a walk he is just thrilled. Cider would thrive in a home with an active human or other dog as he has tons of energy. He’d be an amazing running buddy! He’d probably actually encourage you to hit the trails more often, and who doesn’t need a buddy boost. Apple Cider starts his day when his foster people do, between 7 and 8 AM. He starts with breakfast and then wags his tail until he heads out on his morning walk. He loves long strolls in the hills as he greets his various furry friends. During the day, Cider hangs out around the house, always wanting to be where his people are and where the action is. In the evening, Cider gets a second walk around the neighborhood and then comes home for dinner and a treat. Meals are his favorite times of the day, this dude loves to eat! After dinner, Cider does his best to make himself a lap dog, soaking up all the cuddles and snuggles he can. Around 9 PM, he goes out for one last potty break before he settles in for the night on his dog bed. Apple Cider gets along fabulously with dogs of all ages. He would love a playmate in his forever home whether canine or human. Cider would benefit from training as he has tons of puppy energy. He needs a home that will set boundaries and commit to a training plan with him to improve upon some of his puppy naughtiness. Cider happily embarks on his walks but needs some additional correction as he sets out. Cider is such a friendly and good boy. He will be so loved and will shower you in that love right back. You’ll never enter a room without seeing his wagging tail and his bright smile again! Apple Cider is an option for those with prior dog experience. Interested homes should be ready for an active dog. Kids in the home should be teens or older.November 16, 2024, 3:57 pm
