HOW TO MEET THIS ANIMAL: Fill out the application and we will follow up with you! We will connect

LOCATION: Cash is in a foster home!
ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Sue B (sueb@homewardtrails.org)
ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee for this dog $495 and includes spay/neuter and microchip. Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training and other discounts!
ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 75 lbs
ESTIMATED AGE: 2 years
KNOWN WITH DOGS: Cash is good with other dogs and LOVES to mix it up. He grew up with a feisty 25 lb Cattle Dog mix and loved to play tug-o-war. He would love another playful rough-houser to keep him active!
KNOWN WITH CATS: Cash has lived with up to 5 cats, sharing his bed and toys and cuddling with them. He may take a bit to get used to new cats but has a history of living very well with cats.
KNOWN WITH KIDS: Cash does well with humans of all ages. He's a bigger happy boy so may do best with kids who can be well supervised and not get knocked over.
KNOWN COMMANDS: Cash knows basic commands and redirects well when asked!
KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: He is housebroken but accidents in the beginning will happen and he's starting to get used to crating.
KNOWN LIKES: Play, people, other dogs, toys, cuddles and more play.
KNOWN DISLIKES: ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Does not love being left alone but we think this will get better as he's still adjusting to losing the only person he's known since he was 4 weeks old. But ideally, someone who is home more than less will be ideal.
ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Cash is AMAZING. He was purchased when he was 4 weeks of age (way too early)
but grew up in a loving home with dogs and cats. Sadly, his owner had to move and could not find aplace to rent with a dog so he had to give Cash up. He sleeps well at night and is pretty good about staying on his big bed.
He has been able to be off- leash in a fenced area with us and has zero desire to roam away from people. He will chase cats outside-although he is redirectable.
He likes to play tug with a rope toy- it's his favorite. He's a strong boy so another strong dog would be an ideal playmate for this boy.
He loves a good bone. He also bonds fast with people so he needs someone to love him and get him exercise and build his confidence.

BE A FOSTER: Save a life: http://www.homewardtrails.org/foster-a-pet/dog-and-cat-foster-program.
You will first be required to complete our Adoption Questionnaire (http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/). Once received, a Homeward Trails rep will contact you via phone or e-mail. Please allow 72 hours for a response. If it seems you are a good fit for each other based on the info you provided, a phone interview will follow. If you are renting, we require proof that you are allowed to have a pet as well as any breed or size restrictions that may exist. If you have pets or did previously, we require your vet information and we will call them to verify that your pets are in good health, current on vaccines and spayed/neutered. We require that all pets in the home be spayed/neutered unless there are health reasons that can be verified with the vet.
Homeward Trails' adoption fees range depending on type of animal, the originating shelter and the vetting the animal has received. Our adoption fees are set to allow us to cover our expenses as well as to help other animals in our program that require additional care. Our fees cover vetting costs, shelter fees, fuel for transport, copying and printing of contracts and paperwork, our website presence, food, boarding, behavioral training and additional medical care. It is important to note that while the animal you adopt may not require all of these things, many other animals in our system do. Thus, any "extra" money from adoption fees goes to help those animals who may require additional care. By adopting from Homeward Trails, you are not saving just one life, you are helping to save others as well.

More about this rescue
Homeward Trails seeks to find permanent adoptive homes in the Mid-Atlantic Region for dogs and cats from under resourced shelters or whose owners can no longer care for them. In so doing, we seek to reduce the rate of euthanasia of adoptable animals through the rescue and placement of homeless animals; to support proactive spay/neuter practices; to promote positive and ongoing behavioral training; and to educate the public about how to care for their animals in a humane way. Homeward Trails not only facilitates adoptions from local shelters, but also supports a large network of foster care providers who take homeless dogs and cats into their homes, care for them, rehabilitate them when needed, and prepare them for their permanent adoptive homes.
Sadly, without our help, all of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - usually within days or hours of our rescuing them. Each year we take in hundreds of wonderful animals who were left at shelters through no fault of their own.
Many are puppies and kittens – innocent victims of irresponsible pet owners who don’t spay/neuter. Some are abandoned hunting dogs who served their owners well and were dumped in woods or left at shelters when they were no longer wanted. Others are house pets whose owners simply grew tired of caring for them or moved and did not take them along. And even more are animals that have been injured, abused and neglected. Whatever the reasons, these animals all deserve better. And once with Homeward Trails, they get better!
Our Principles:
1. To always operate in the best interest of the animals we take into our program and to advocate for the proper care of those in shelters and in private homes;
2. To provide quality care for the animals we take in for as long as they are in our program and to provide ongoing support to our adopters;
3. To always maintain a manageable number of animals in our system whereby we can ensure proper medical care, behavioral training and housing for the animals;
4. To rescue the widest array of dogs and cats by avoiding general discrimination based on breed, age, and health;
5. To provide our shelter partners and their communities with resources that will result in the highest level of care for their animals, an increase in spay/neuter surgeries and a decrease in the abuse, neglect and abandonment of dogs and cats;
6. To treat our volunteers, adopters and partners with understanding, patience and support
