Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rachel is a beautiful, sweet 1 year old American Staffordshire Terrier mix. She was pulled from a local shelter knowing that without MAS, she would lot make it out alive. It is likely that she never had a warm home of her own. She knows sit, down, stay and come and is doing great learning to heel. She loves to play, SWIM, is an excellent traveler, gets along well with other dogs and her main goal in life is to find her own person and be their lapdog. Full grown at 45 pounds, she is the perfect size for your lap:) She is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative and current on vaccines. She has a congenital toe defect but that does not hold her up in any way. Please fill out our application if you are her person. She won't disappoint!
If interested in adopting, please visit www.masrescue.org and click on "Adopt Here". You will find the adoption application at the bottom of the page. The adoption fee is $300.00. Please Note: 100% of all the adoption fees collected are used to care for the animals, and pay our ever increasing vet bill. We appreciate your interest in adopting from a rescue organization. We understand the desire to meet our "cuties" as soon as possible, but because we operate entirely out of foster homes, we need to limit visitation to approved applicants only. Once your completed application is submitted by you and approved by MASR, we will be glad to schedule your visit. This puppy has been examined by our vet, and provided with first vaccinations and initial preventatives. Please be aware that it is the opinion of this rescue group, in conjunction with dog behaviorists, that a young puppy benefits greatly with proper socialization. We will only place puppies in homes where they have the opportunity to be with someone all day, travel to work, or have special arrangements, such as Puppy Day Care, Dog Walker, etc. Puppies benefit greatly from Obedience Training - and we encourage you to check out http://www.pupsdogobediencetraining.com/ . They offer a great discount for training of puppies coming from MAS Rescue! Breed Selection is 'Best Efforts' given by shelter staff, veterinarians and rescue volunteers. NO guarantees are implied. Please note that small breeds are not well designed for families with young children as everything about them is more delicate and will require careful handling. Remember, adoption is a commitment for the lifetime of your new furry friend; dogs could live 15 years or more!!
