My story

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

We would like to explain that if you are looking for a perfect dog, they are rarely found in rescue. Our dogs often have unknown histories and we do our very best to evaluate each dog with kids, cats, and other dogs as well as determine how they behave in a home. It is important to understand that we have some specific criteria for each dog based on their backgrounds and input from their foster families. The purpose of these criteria is to better match each dog with an appropriate family. While a certain dog might appeal to you based on breed, size, gender or appearance, you may not match the listed criteria. Please understand that we are not trying to make adoption difficult—we are trying to make each adoption successful for the dog and the new family.

PLEASE CLICK ON "READ MORE ABOUT THIS PET" FOR COMPLETE INFORMATION!

If you have children, we suggest that prior to applying for a dog, you view the website http://www.livingwithkidsanddogs.com. The information is excellent and can help you determine which dog would be right for your family.

Dipper is a ready made family dog who was rescued from a shelter after being found stray. He's about 4-5 years old and weighs a healthy 55 pounds. He has a typical lap personality--very friendly, loves everyone he meets, and he thinks he is a lap dog so he can sit where he can give you kisses!!! Dipper will fit into almost any family very well. He gets along well with other dogs and likes to play. He also likes to chase balls and go for walks on a leash. Dipper is well mannered and is really an easy keeper, so if you are looking for a ready made dog, come meet Dipper. He is with a 501c3 rescue. His adoption fee is $150.00. Dipper is neutered, heartworm tested and on prevention, is up to date on shots for parvo, distemper and rabies, has been wormed and he has a HomeAgain microchip. If you like labs, Dipper will be your new best friend!

To ensure that this dog thrives in his new home and that the adoption works out for the dog and your family, these are the requirements for adoption. These criteria are not negotiable. If you do not meet these criteria, please choose another dog that will work out better for your family.





• Homeowners: REQUIRED



• Status of adopter: 25+



• Previous dog owning experience: not required



• Age of children: 5 and up if supervised



• Another dog in the home: Would enjoy a canine companion but not required.

• Fenced yard: Preferred, electric fence okay

• Time alone on work days: Can be home for six hours
