My story

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

Purebred rottweiler. Akc registered. Was surrendered to us by a breeder. Joey mom stepped on him when he was 5 weeks old. The breeder took him to the ER and they decided to splint his leg and told her to bring him back in 2 weeks. When she did, they took new X-rays that showed that each end of the bone was healing independently and was not fusing together. So on Oct 4 joey will have surgery on his back leg to have a plate input in to hold the two ends together. There is a fair chance that the surgery will work. If it doesn't work then Joey will have to have his leg amputated. He is a sweet cuddly ball of fur that loves to give kisses and has the best puppy breath ever! Even with 3 legs it will be super easy to love him! We would like to place him in a home that has a pool when he is ready. It will be necessary for his rehabilitation. If you are interested in offering joey a good life despite all this, please fill out an application.


if you would like to contribute to help pay Joey's medical bills which will be over $4000 please do so via Venmo, zelle, PayPal by putting in phone number 480-5674328 or email rottenrottierescue@gmail.com Thank you


Our Adoption Process... If you are interested in adopting one of our fun loving not so rotten rotties, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire that will allows us to get to know you better and to make sure the dog you are looking at is a good fit for your family and lifestyle. You can access our questionnaire by going to our website, www.rottenrottie.com click on the forms tab, and fill out the questionnaire and submit it online. After we review your answers, if we feel that the dog that you are interested in, is not a good fit for you and your family, we may recommend a different rottweiler companion. After we determine which Rottweiler(s) is the best for you, we will set up a time so that you can meet him or her at their house, where they will feel most comfortable and act as they normally do. We will require a home check to make sure the dog is going to a good home. An adoption contract will be signed to finalize the adoption and we do ask for a rehoming fee of $500 for most adults, $350 for most of our seniors 6 years and above for any rottweiler mix of any age (except puppies) . Our fees for puppies fluctuate depending on how much we had to invest into them or their litter, and weather they are purebred or a mix. These funds are necessary so that our organization may continue to rehome rottweilers. ALL of our dogs are sterilized, fully vaccinated and microchipped, heartworm tested negative and come with a collar and a leash. We have also addressed any injury or illness that they had when they came to us, or received in foster care. These problems will be disclosed to the adopter prior to adoption.

Please be advised that in almost all cases we will not adopt our dogs to folks who live in different states. On rare occasion, if we feel that it is a PERFECT for both you and the dog, we sometimes will break that rule for our neighbors who live in Las Vegas. If you live in Vegas and would like us to consider you, please fill out an application.
