Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sex: Male
Age: 8 years old (est 8/2014)
Breed: Alaskan Malamute
Status: AVAILABLE for FOSTER ONLY
MUST HAVE stay-at-home humans!
Cato is a senior malamute (est 10-12yrs old) who loves being with humans!! He is an expert at escaping crates and opening closed doors and causing destruction! He has terrible separation anxiety so he would need a home with humans that like to stay home a lot! With a human at home, he is not destructive!! He is a big cuddle bug and really just needs a place to hang out and take naps! He is currently being treated for worms which will hopefully allow him to gain weight as he is really skinny!! Look here for his pictures on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.822033561164366.1073741948.287714381262956&type=3
Cato will ONLY go to a home with stay at home parents for his own safety.
**AT THIS TIME, CATO IS NOT UP FOR ADOPTION, HE IS ELIGIBLE FOR FOSTER ONLY. THIS MAY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE**
If you are interested in pursuing an adoption and you live in , please complete the application (links provided below). The process includes a vet check, calling references and doing a home visit.

or

**Please note the following:**
*We rarely do out of state adoptions. (Exceptions can be discussed but will be based on previous big dog experience and will require same adoption process.)
*Children in the home or that visit often must be at least 6 years of age. (Exceptions can be discussed but will be based on previous big dog experience.)
*Adoption donation is due at the time of adoption. Puppies under 1 year are $300. Dogs 1 year to 7 years are $200 and dogs over 7 years are $150. As this is a donation, it will be non-returnable if dog is returned to rescue.
*Dogs are not placed on a "first come, first serve" basis but rather the best home for the dog.
All dogs placed by TSDR will be:
-spayed/neutered
-vaccinated for distemper/parvo, rabies, and bordetella
-heartworm tested and treated if needed-microchipped
-other vetting as deemed needed
-New owners will receive copies of all available vet information and must agree to keep them current on all of the above.
