My story

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

NOTE: All our Cupids are fostered in private homes. An approved application MUST be on file before proceeding with meet-and-greet. The online application can be found at http://www.caninecupids.org/adopt-.html.

Meet Turk!
Turk has found himself back with Canine Cupids after his former owner had a baby and didn't have time for this handsome man anymore. Turk doesn't hold a grudge, because there's a far better family waiting out there for him! Could it be yours? Stay tuned for more on this four-year-old gentle giant as Canine Cupids gets to know him again! What we do know is that he's not a fan of cats, and because of his size (100 pounds of love!) he needs a home with no small kids!

Turk’s adoption fee is $200, and he is being fostered in southeastern Wisconsin. Because all our Cupids are fostered in private homes, an approved application MUST be on file before proceeding with a meet-and-greet. The online application can be found at http://www.caninecupids.org/adopt-.html.

About Canine Cupids
Canine Cupids is a rescue in Milwaukee that is comprised of volunteers who have been fostering for various organizations and volunteering at our local animal control. Canine Cupids focuses on Milwaukee’s homeless dogs, but will always help a dog in need when we can — regardless of location.

All adoption fees include:
• Veterinarian examination and health report

• Heartworm prevention
• Vaccines: distemper combo, bordetella intranasal and rabies (dogs age 3 months and older)
• Spaying/neutering
• Worming
• Microchip
• Complimentary collar
• Lifetime of support from Canine Cupids
• The love and companionship of a new best friend!

Canine Cupids is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. For more information visit www.caninecupids.org.

Our Thoughts on Visual Breed Identification
Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable. For most of our adoptable Cupids we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We think it’s most important is to get to know each dog as an individual! We then do our best to describe each of our adoptable Cupids based on their personalities in order to determine whether they’ll make good companions based on prospective adopters’ lifestyles. Dog behavior is not exclusive to breed — it’s a complex mix of nature and nurture.
