Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Please read full description:
Meet a beautiful 100lb cuddler! Gretchen is a gorgeous Mastiff mix. She is very good with other dogs, wonderful with the cats, and PHENOMINAL with the children too! Gretchen was born Nov 2011. Gretchen deserves a forever home. She is an easy going girl who fit right into the rescue family. She deserves a forever family that knows the care large dogs like her will need, especially as they get older. Joint/hip issues can be common. She is so funny too! Gretchen loves to talk to us, and is very much like a cat. She loves to chase laser lights or reflections from watches, rings, etc. She is just a total clown who just likes to be a part of a family. We adore her and I trust her immensely with my children who are 7, 5, 4, and 2 (and all boys so rough at times). I wouldn't put any child alone with a dog however I trust Gretchen to rest calmly with our boys playing around, cuddling with her, etc. She is just a great great dog and she has never had an accident in our home (yet).
If interested in meeting and potentially adopting, please complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org. Adoption fee is $175. All residents are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped as well as other medical needs cared for prior to adoption.
*Breeds are not guaranteed. Rather they are based on appearance, vet guidance, or the information from previous owners if a surrender.
*A fenced yard is required if a yard is present. If no yard due to apartment/condo, leash law and access to a dog park is required for adoption*
*No resident is guaranteed housetraining as we focus on major behavioral and medical rehabilitation. Basic training is also a great way for an adopter to bond with their adopted family member. Additionally, a dog displaying housetrained behaviors in rescue can regress in a new environment and routine.
