My story

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

Meet Mufasa!  He was chained outside of an auto body shop for a long time. Neighbors heard him crying and reached out for help.  Luckily a wonderful woman was contacted and she convinced the owner to surrender Mufasa and thankfully the owner said yes! Thank you to her for helping care for Mufasa until we were able to step in.

Mufasa is one amazing, big puppy! He is 2 years old and 90 pounds. Mufasa is a social butterfly and so sweet! He will do best in a home with a person that is around a lot. Mufasa is big and very strong. He can walk nicely on leash but needs a person comfortable and patient handling a large dog. He can sometimes be reactive on leash and will require someone that has time to consistently work with him on leash.

Mufasa is working through some separation anxiety. He has been doing excellent in his crate. It will take some time and patience for Mufasa to be comfortable being left alone for longer periods of time.

If you think Mufasa is the boy for your please complete an adoption application at roversretreat.org


Mufasa's adoption fee is $800

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We rescue dogs and place them in foster homes until they are ready for adoption. We vaccinate, spay/neuter, microchip, and provide any additional care such as surgery or rehabilitation. We help each dog get ready to be placed in a happy forever home.

Potential adopters are asked to complete an online adoption application and may be visited by one of our volunteers to do a home interview. We aim to find the best fit for each dog's needs.

Our adoption fees range between $400-$1,000 for domestic dogs and those from Mexico. Dogs are assigned an adoption fee based on several factors such as age, breed, health and behavior, amongst others.

For our international dogs from overseas, adoption fees range $800-$2,000. International adoption fees are higher due to the travel and boarding costs, as well as the above-mentioned factors for domestic dogs. These dogs stay in their country of origin for weeks, or sometimes months, prior to being able to travel.
