Here's what the humans have to say about me:
**FOSTER HAS BEEN ADOPTED!** Foster is a social, outgoing, and good-natured pup looking for a forever home. Pal's Place rescued Foster from an overburdened animal control facility in rural Kentucky along with his six littermates. He's now in a loving and nurturing foster home in Chicago, anxiously waiting to meet his new family. Foster is approximately 14-16 weeks old and weighs 25 pounds. Considering his current age and weight, we expect he will mature to 55-70 pounds when fully grown. Adopters should be prepared to care for a larger, active dog. His exact breed mix is unknown, but it is known that he is genuinely the best breed; rescued! Foster's littermates all looked quite different. Foster's appearance suggests Boxer and maybe some hound in their lineage; one puppy looked like a Black Lab, another like a Border Collie, and the remaining pups resembled Mountain Curs. Both parents were most likely mixed breeds, so Foster and his siblings are a proper muttley crew! Given his breed mix, Foster will most likely be an intelligent and energetic dog who will thrive as a member of an active household. He is crate trained and is coming along nicely with his housebreaking when kept on a regular schedule.
Please remember that puppies this age and size need frequent potty breaks (every 3-4 hours or so) and lots of playtime and attention throughout the day for the next several months, so please consider if you truly have the time for a puppy before applying. Foster will be a fantastic companion for one lucky household.
• Foster's adoption fee to the rescue is $475. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date with age-appropriate vaccines. Foster can be visited by appointment once an adoption application is submitted and approved by the rescue. To complete an adoption application online, visit http://palsplacerescue.org/adopt/ or email Palsplace1@hotmail.com for an application or more information. We cannot place holds on our dogs for any reason. Please do not apply unless you are ready to welcome a new member into the home within three days of applying.
• Pal's Place adoption fees start at $475 for puppies and $375 for dogs aged six months or older. This fee helps to cover medical expenses needed to prepare dogs for adoption (vaccines, microchips, spay/neuter surgeries, etc.), feeding, transportation, and general care for the dogs. Pal's Place is 100% reliant on donations to care for our rescued dogs.
