Posted 8/19/17 - Reagan is an approximately 10 week old Yellow Labrador Retriever or Golden Retriever mix puppy who is possibly mixed with unknown Shepherd or even a Husky type. At 7 weeks of age, witnesses saw a car pull up at a park, DUMP Reagan, and drive off. Authorities were called, and Reagan ended up safe with Rescue. Reagan now weighs about 11.4 lbs.; he is growing each day, and it is estimated that he may grow to be about 60 lbs. Reagan had a vet check and is deemed to be healthy. He had his first and second set of puppy shots, is microchipped and dewormed, and we will contract with the adopter to get his third, fourth and fifth set of shots. He is too young to be neutered, but we will strictly contract with an adopter to do that at the appropriate time.
Reagan is a typical inquisitive, fun and happy puppy. He loves toys and is playful, and torments the older dogs here to play with him but they are not having his puppy style. Reagan really likes other dogs; it would be nice if he had another young pup that was interested in playing with him and palling around! He is doing well in his crate-training. He can whine loudly sometimes, but overall, he does well (I crate him if I have to leave the house for a bit, for eating, and for sleeping, and for sleeping, as long as I position the crate in my bedroom, and give him one additional potty break at about 11 p.m., he sleeps through the night without interruption of my sleep. Then when I wake up, I immediately give him his morning potty break. Even though Reagan is doing well in his potty training, a puppy this young will continue to have potty accidents for some time and an adopter must be prepared to continue with his ongoing crate and potty-training thus an appropriate sized wire crate will be mandatory for his adoption.
Reagan is a smart puppy that learns things quickly. He learned the doggie door immediately by seeing the other dogs do it, followed the Dachshunds up the doggie steps to the bed, and learned his name right away. He picks up the routine fast, and now, at nighttime he runs to his crate in the bedroom knowing he will get a rawhide stick. He is a nice balance of playing and getting into stuff (and also stuff he should not get into ) and chilling near me on a pet bed. He is very sweet, but occasionally willful, so I am looking for an adopter who plans on taking him to puppy training at the appropriate time.
You must meet the following criteria to be considered for adoption:
• Someone at home most of the day, for example, stay-at-home moms/dads, folks who work from home, or complimentary schedules among the adults in the home.
• Previous dog experience.
• Another dog for play and companionship.
• A wire crate for puppy to be when no one is at home; we recommend 36 inches long as he is growing.
• Applicants must be between 30 and 60 years of age.
• No infants or toddlers, please, but we will consider families with older children who are gentle and well supervised by parents.
• We only adopt dogs as INDOOR dogs. Dogs can go outdoors for play (with supervision at this young age), for potty, but never to be excluded to an outside area, not even when older.
• Home with a yard – no apartments, condos, town homes.
If you are interested in Reagan, you do not need to press any special buttons on this website, just write/send a regular e-mail to Janet Cook to: adopt@angelsheartdogrescue.com. Please write with some information about your home, family members, other pets, dog experience. I sincerely apologize, but I cannot answer single questions such as, “Is this dog available?” “Can I come and meet this dog?” or, “How much?” Only those who read the bio, as well as send an e-mail with the requested information will be considered to apply.
If you go to this website: www.angelsheartdogrescue.com and go to the Adoption Tab (look at tabs along the top) you can read about the application process. The adoption fee is: $325 plus $75 as a spay/neuter deposit (total $400). In addition to the Adoption Contract, there will be a vaccine and neuter contract and follow up will be strictly enforced. Once Reagan becomes altered, the $75 will be reimbursed. We may be able to refer you to vets that offer a lowered neuter cost. A home check may be required. The phone number to the rescue is: 626-340-9316. We cannot take phone inquiries, however, if you send an e-mail, and you do not receive a response within 24 hours, please feel free to phone the rescue. Thank you!
