ADOPTED 7/22/2011
SPAYED, FULLY VETTED, HEARTWORM TREATED, ON FLEA AND HEARTWORM PREVENTATIVE, HOUSE TRAINED, LEASH TRAINED, GENTLE AND SWEET PERSONALITY. GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS, CATS AND CHILDREN, AND LOVES TO RIDE IN THE CAR.
Our rescue has been working for six months with a large group ( 23 ) of Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers that were removed from a very bad environment in south Mississippi. To date we have been very fortunate in finding excellent forever homes for the vast majority of these dogs. At the present time we have only one female left, Freckles the youngest of the Tollers at 2 years of age.
This young lady has stepped up to the challenge on everything we have asked of her, socializing well with the other dogs, tolerating the occasional cat and even hanging tough with rambunctious kids. Freckles is happiest being a lap dog but loves to play and exercise, though loving you is all she cares about. As is with most Tollers, this dog can be aloof with strangers but loves her" people with a passion and depth unique to the breed. Fun loving and happy, Freckles is true joy to be around, the very definition of a companion and friend.
As Freckles' trainer, I have had the joy of watching her evolve from a dog living exclusively outdoors with little human interaction to a well disciplined family member, capable of fitting into almost any loving environment. The family that gets this girl will be in my estimation a very fortunate family; this quality of dog is very seldom available in rescue circles. Please contact us and allow me to answer any questions you may have about this very special lady.
About Our Rescue
These dogs deserve all of our attention, and in Rescue Dog Village, we are committed to our adopters and our dogs equally. We offer full disclosure and hope to make the best matches possible. Please know our adoption fees never cover our expenses. We rely on the generosity of our adopters and supporters to help us help the dogs.
Our rescue is ONLY in the business of offering FULL DISCLOSURE to adopters, and expects and hopes to engage your questions and concerns fully. We owe it to the dogs we rescue and all the wonderful families/adopters who might consider welcoming our charges into their hearts and home. Our dogs are waiting for that ideal forever home where they will be cherished as deserving family members. It's sad these second chances are even necessary for these dogs, but we are committed to them and will devote the time and energy to their rehoming, and not just MOVE them to save more dogs. We diligently and responsibly seek good matches as we don't want to re-home the dog again. These animals have already endured more than they should have, and through no fault of their own. It behooves us to be honest and forthright, and we appreciate the same in return from applicants. It's that winning combination of reciprocal trust and respect that allows for successful placements to be made. Happy adopters translate to happy dogs, and that's our goal!
Our rescue volunteers will be more than honored to be in touch with you directly and promptly, after receiving your application and conducting a mandatory a veterinarian check. If you have never owned a dog before, please submit your application regardless, and we will be in touch with you as soon as possible. TAKE NOTE YOU SHOULD CHECK YOUR SPAM AS SOME RESPONSES FROM US WIND UP THERE WE'VE DISCOVERED. Also, take care to contact your veterinarian to let them know a member of rescue will be inquiring about your pet history!
Thank you for respecting that we all donate our time to saving these animals, and understand we value your philanthropic and compassionate desire to help be part of the rescue team. That said, you'll understand why we are committed to the well-being of our charges and consider this veterinarian check mandatory. If you are a first-time dog owner, we will work with you every step of the way! ADVOCACY AND EDUCATION ARE AS MUCH A PART OF RESPONSIBLE RESCUE AS ADOPTION! And it takes a RESCUE VILLAGE to help the most dogs possible in a thorough manner to ensure success on all fronts, and then some! It is an awful feeling to fail a dog, and we can't continue rescue if we don't do everything we can to ensure good matches for the dogs and tender families who might adopt them. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.
Although we are an extremely small rescue group, we understand and respect your family's eagerness to be in touch and learn as much as you can about the dogs you are considering adopting. Our very experienced and devoted trainer will be happy to share all aspects of OUR RESCUE DOGS to determine compatibility once you've submitted your application, and another of our volunteers will explain the whole process of our rescue and answer any questions you might have as well
If you have the time and love to offer this extremely bright dog who can make you laugh for hours at his antics,
