My story

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

Meet Diva!!

Hello everyone, my name is Diva. I'm a beautiful lady with quite the story to tell. I'm a beautiful adult lady, weighing about 65 pounds, and just recently had my yucky eyes taken out. As you can see, I can't see. Despite my past, I have a positive outlook on life. There’s no "the grass is greener on the other side." As long as there’s grass to explore, yummy treats, and lots of love to go around, I am happy as a bee in a field of wildflowers. Although it may not look like it quite yet, my lovely maine will need to be tamed as it grows in. I would thrive in a slow paced environment where the daily schedule only consists of treat breaks, snuggles, treat breaks, naps, and potty breaks. I'd prefer if you ran errands without me, as going in and out of the car isn’t my most favorite activity. But I don’t mind holding down the fort while someone is gone, and I don't even need a crate! I would love it if my forever family allowed furry friends to cuddle on the furniture. I can be a bit of a spunky girl, but typically I'm pretty chill and will find a comfy spot on the chair or the couch. Who needs eyes to do that or sniff out a tasty treat??

I don't mind spending time with other furry friends and would much prefer a companion that was more my pace. If I'm feeling adventurous, I may give the family cat a good sniff and even a chase. I would do best in a home with older children who can respect my space while being able to help me navigate my new environment. I'm a quick learner and can adapt to a new environment as long as it has my favorite things: friends, friends who cuddle, and friends who provide tasty treats. Are you ready to see if I am your perfect match? All you have to do is swipe right!! (Well it’s a little bit more than that, but I'm worth it!)

*Diva is being fostered in Janesville, WI.

Additional adoption info

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue providing compassionate care to special needs, senior, and hospice dogs.

Our adoption process begins with a completed application. From there, we will review references and vet records. The next step is a home visit with your family. This visit may be in person or virtual.  At that point, if approved, we will set up a meet and greet with available dogs.

All dogs have an adoption fee of $275 for a single dog or $500 for (bonded) pair, unless otherwise noted.

Note: Pairs must be adopted at the same time to get the reduced adoption fee.​

-Applications with incomplete information will not be processed.
- All current dogs in the home must be spayed or neutered, up to date on rabies vaccination, up to date on DHLPP, up to date on Heartworm testing and preventative.
- All cats in the home must be spayed or neutered and up to date on a rabies vaccination or wellness exam.
- None of our dogs will be adopted to prospective owners who mislead or fail to provide accurate information on the adoption application and/or the adoption contract. Albert's Dog Lounge reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone.
- You must agree that if you are no longer able to keep your rescue dog for whatever reason, the dog will be returned to Albert's Dog Lounge. The adopter must agree to never attempt to sell or rehome the dog at any point.

Our goal is to place our seniors into permanent, loving homes for the rest of their golden years.

More about this rescue

Albert's Dog Lounge is a foster-based rescue focused on providing loving homes to seniors, special needs, and hospice dogs. We help dogs in need from overcrowded shelters and also from local families who are no longer able to care for their pets.

Albert's Dog Lounge was established in 2017 with the vision to be the stepping stone to a new life for those dogs who are less likely to be rescued, adopted, or at a higher risk for euthanasia.
