My story

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

Cheers has recently come back to SAAP after being adopted as a puppy 8yrs ago. He loves butt scratches and is perfectly house trained. Cheers is struggling with all the changes, so he will need a patient adopter who will give him ample time to settle into a new life. He is currently taking anxiety medication to help him through these transitions. After a few weeks back with SAAP, Cheers is beginning to slowly build a relationship with his current caretakers. He is still a very stressed pup, but he has relaxed enough to curl up on the couch and nap near people, and he happily accepts affection. 

Cheers seems genetically predisposed to lumps and bumps. He did have one cancerous mass that was completely removed upon his return to SAAP. He has quite a few other lumps that the vet has determined to be fatty masses that are not of concern. Many of his siblings have had similar diagnoses.

Cheers has not reacted well to other dogs or young children, so at this time we are recommending he be adopted as an only pet to a household without kids.

If you would be interested in fostering or adopting Cheers, you can apply for either option on our website!

Additional adoption info

You are required to sign a legally binding contact on your new pet. As part of that contract, should you no longer be able to keep the animal for any reason, the animal MUST be surrendered back to SAAP. This is to ensure the animal is placed back in foster care while we secure a new approved home for the animal. However, we always try to ensure that the initial placement is best for the pet and your family. We reserve the right to refuse any adoption.

More about this rescue

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)3 non profit organization. We are dedicated to the rescue of animals that are in need of a forever home. Our animals are fostered in homes where we provide love, food, medical care and socialization until adoption into a new loving home. We educate on the importance of spaying and neutering of all pets.

We ensure all animals have been spayed or neutered prior to adoption. They are micro-chipped, up to date on shots and on heartworm and anti-flea medications (as age appropriate). They are ready and waiting to start their new life with their fur-ever family. Could that be you?

We need your help to continue our mission. We rely solely on donations and fundraisers. All donations are tax-deductible and 100% of your donation will go towards the rescue, care, and medical needs of the animals.
