My story

This sweet 53 lb 4 year old girl is one tough mama who's been through a lot! While she was in the shelter, she had three puppies, and that is no place for a mama to give birth. Now her puppies are with their forever families and Halsey is breaking out of her shell while she patiently waits for her forever home. She was protective over her puppies and can be protective over her humans; she also takes corrections extremely well. As long as you are disciplined with her, she will be great! She has lots of energy and needs two solid walks every day or an active family she can go on runs and hikes with. She hasn't been around many dogs yet (besides her puppies), so we don't know for sure, but we think she'd be good with other dogs after a proper introduction. Halsey is young, active and looking forward to spending a long life with you and your family.June 3, 2023, 7:35 pm

Additional adoption info

All of our animals come fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered (if old enough), and microchipped. Puppies and kittens will be spayed/neutered and have all shots when they are old enough. There is an Adoption application, a quick phone interview to make sure it is a good fit, a meet and greet with the dog, then a home check, and an adoption contract. We ask for a $400 donation for adult dogs, and $500 for puppies at the time of adoption so that we can save other dogs from the shelter. The first step is to fill out an app here: https://thelittlereddog.org/adoption-form

More about this rescue

Dogs are man's best friend, but it is not always the other way around. The Little Red Dog was founded in memory of a little red American Pit Bull Terrier who did not make it. If you are familiar with the Michael Vick dog fighting case chronicled in The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption. The Little Red Dog was brutally beaten to death by Vick and his cronies because she didn't want to fight.

The Little Red Dog rescues dogs; red, blue, tan, white, brown, black and all colors in between. We do not discriminate against ANY breed; that's because we are a real rescue, and we will help as many animals as we can. Our primary goal is to get them into loving homes. Our hope that some day all of them make it, but most of all, we will never forget the Little Red Dog and many others who did not.
