Here's what the humans have to say about me:
TANKER has come a long way from being a bit fearful to Mr. Social. He was an owner surrender who medically was taken care of very well but hadn't been given much attention. He is a very energetic and sweet boy who knows some commands. His foster mom calls him "Hanky Panky Tanky". She says he loves to follow her everywhere! Approximately 3-4 years old. Tanker is neutered, heartworm negative and fully vaccinated. He would do best in a home with older kids due to his size and energy. Tanker weighs approx. 100 pounds and likes female dogs.
ADOPTION DETAILS: Most RHR available dogs live in foster homes. Each dog is spayed, neutered, (unless medically on hold) up to date on shots, dewormed, and microchipped. At this time, due to the size of our rescue, adoptions are limited to NORTH CAROLINA, SOUTH CAROLINA, VIRGINIA and +/-6 hours from Raleigh, NC. ADOPTION FEE: Our total adoption fee is $400, including a non-refundable $25 application fee. Fee can be paid using the "DONATE" button on our website (www.RottweilerHeartsRescue.org) - please indicate in the notes that it is for an application fee, and the intended dog. If you have any questions, please email our adoption coordinator at RHR.Adoption@gmail.com!

Additional adoption info
The RHR adoption application is part of a multi-step process. Once we get your completed adoption application, the RHR Adoption Committee will contact your veterinarian and personal references. Meanwhile, a home visit with you and your family will be scheduled and completed before RHR can consider approval of the adoption application. Our goal is to have this process completed within 10 days. After that, a meet and greet between the dog, you, and your family must take place. The RHR Adoption Contract must be completed and approved. Payment of the adoption fee can be made via money order, cashier’s check, PayPal, Venmo, cash, or personal check, must be received by RHR before the adoption can be completed. Rottweiler Hearts Rescue reserves the right to deny any application for any reason.
