My story

Satchel's Last Resort

adoptions@satchelslastresort.org

* SPECIAL NEEDS: Fearful of some men.

Handsome is an exuberant, loving boy who quickly bonds and falls in love with everyone he meets. He is initially fearful of some men so a very slow introduction would be required but once he knows he can trust you, you're in his circle forever. Handsome is 5-years-old and enjoys long walks, splashing around in swimming pools and chasing lizards. He does like playing with most female dogs his own size, but again a proper introduction would be required. Handsome is treat motivated and knows basic commands. He would be a perfect student for an obedience training program! Handsome is currently working with his Woof Pack leader on muzzle training so making introductions are much easier. For an appointment to meet Handsome, please fill out an adoption application (no commitment) at www.satchelslastresort.org.

More about this rescue

Satchel's Last Resort is a no-kill animal shelter/sanctuary whose mission is to Rescue, Rehab and Rehome dogs and cats with nowhere else to go because of breed, behavior or medical issues.

Each resident that comes to Satchel’s has its own unique and personal history. We get to know each one individually – favorite toy, favorite game, favorite foods. The dogs are housed in an airy shelter with spacious kennels, take three or four romps in the playard or walks per day, and even take car rides to let their fur flap in the wind. Cats are housed in two open cat room settings and receive social interaction with staff and volunteers every day. Most important to us -- we keep our dogs and cats safe from other residents and from humans who may want to harm them.

Trainers work with the dogs a few times a week to teach them that they can trust humans and other animals. Staff and volunteers work with our cats to keep them socialized or help them learn to trust again. We actively seek forever homes tailored to the needs of every individual pet so that they can live the rest of their lives among a family of their own.

At Satchel’s Last Resort, we believe that by harnessing the unconditional love that the dogs and cats in our sanctuary put forth everyday, the world becomes a brighter place for animals and people. Each and everyday we try to give a little of their love back – back to the pets and back to our community.
