What is Rehome?
If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
Dug came to us about a month ago. He was on the list to be euthanized (overcrowded shelter). We worked with a rescue that transports dogs at kill shelters to bring him from Cali to our home, just outside of STL. He was a bit anxious at first, but became attached to my hip in less than a day. My husband and I slowly introduced him to our other pets (2 dogs and 2 cats) and the intros with the dogs went well, but we found overtime that Dug was a little too interested in the cats. So, we made the very heartbreaking decision to find him a new home where he could be comfortable. Dug struggles being alone at first, needs to be monitored in a yard with a fence less than 5 feet tall, and would need to avoid a home with cats. Dug is an extremely loving and silly little guy. He is great on a leash, seems to pick up quickly to training, and gets along with other dogs. If you choose Dug, you are choosing a friend for life. From Dug: My name is Dug. I have just met you, and I love you.
