My story

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

Gideon is a loving little booger that had a not so great start to life, but has blossomed into a goofy fun boy that loves attention and people. He loves all toys! He is a toy and food driven dog through and through! He loves other dogs and hasn’t shown any issues with meeting new friends at all. He can still be a little shy when meeting new people, but will only try to hide or walk away until he feels comfortable. He took about 2 weeks to trust his fosters and no longer hide all the time. He now follows them around, approaches for love, and will snuggle on the couch as much as possible. He loves to nap with his head resting on his foster dad’s shoulder or lap. Once he trusts you, and he will with patience, you will always have a loyal companion in him.
He still gets nervous in the car, he was dumped in the woods when he was 6 months old, but he has come a long way in that regard as well. He no longer whines or shakes the entire time. He’s been to a few dog friendly stores and the only problem we had was with the big scary automatic doors. He wasn’t a fan, but with encouragement, he was able to get through it. He knows how to sit and take things from your hand nicely, and we’re working on stay.


We are a 501c3 non profit rescue.
Your information in our application is not shared and is protocol for adoption. Here is the application link.
https://shorturl.at/syCM3
All of our dogs have age appropriate vaccinations, if over 6 months old are spayed or neutered, if under 6 months adopter is responsible for having that done between 6 and 10 months of age(we can offer some low cost options for you), microchipped with lifetime free membership, dewormed and will go home with a 3 to 5 day dewormer as well, any medical conditions known are disclosed to the best of our ability.

Adults are hw tested and status is disclosed. Please don't let HW positive dogs deter you. Please ask us and we will gladly explain the slow kill process!

If you are out of state or out of area that is not a problem, we do offer relay transport for a small additional fee to cover health certificates required for private interstate travel and additional vetting required. All adults are hw tested and status is disclosed. Please don't let HW positive dogs deter you. Please ask us and we will gladly explain the slow kill process!

We run solely on donations and house 100 plus dogs and 10 plus horses at any given time. Please be patient but if you do not hear from us within 48 hours of submitting your application please reach out. We are human and we do get very busy sometimes. Our email is Sgequinerescue@gmail.com you cam email when you put your app in or wait yhe 48 hours. Just know some dogs have a lot of apps so the sooner the better in those cases.

Adoption fees range from $150 to $400

We do not offer discounts of any kind. Adoption fees are set fees and not negotiable. These fees help with vetting on current and future animals we take in.

We do not offer walk through "choose a dog/puppy" type experience. We are partially foster based, we can help with matching dogs if you have something you have in mind so feel free to call or browse our available dogs at sger.petfinder.com
You can meet before adoption but that is ONLY done with approved applicants.

Thank you for considering giving a rescue dog a chance. You don't just save one life, you save 2!

If you are interested in supporting our mission but not ready to adopt you can Donate the following ways. $5 dollars or $500 it absolutely all matters and helps!
