My story

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

I’m Lucky, in so many ways.
My sister Lola and I came into rescue together. First thought to be a bonded pair, we’ve decided we’d really do alright separated.
If it’s a smallish dog you seek, I am your man, or…dog. I am a whopping 30 pound, 7 year old whippet mix, who is house trained and love children who are kind to me.
I love all people; especially ones that give me their time, love, peanut butter, and let me snooze in the sun. I am a creature of habit, and like to follow a relaxed routine and would prefer a home without a cat to interfere with my schedule and relaxed lifestyle. Same being for rowdy dogs in my space.
I am told by my foster family that I am sweet as can be and have wonderful house manners. I just want to be with people whether going on a walk or relaxing on the couch.
Think of undying love, complete and continuing loyalty? Then I am the dog for you.

I am adoptable in all of New England plus MD, Eastern PA, VA and WV. If you think I am the man for you please apply at www.bigfluffydogs.com and follow up with an to email Jen@bigfluffydogs.com


If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at http://www.bigfluffydogs.com/online-app.php.Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process. All known information about an individual dog is provided in it's listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters must understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for:1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only "hold it" for one hour per month of age (ex. a 4 month old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break).2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old, to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise.3.) Socialization: The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home.4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded tenfold, for years to come.Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy.Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time consuming, and can be expensive.All Dogs Require:Supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well socialized dog is more than worth the effort put in to get them there.
