My personality

My story

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

Location: Fresno, CA

Say hi to Atlas! This cutie guy is about 8-10 months old and was found roaming the streets.

No microchip, no owner has been found.

The finder cannot keep him, as he is very much a puppy and tends to run over her little dogs. He is currently 35 lbs.

We are guessing Atlas to be a blend of Dalmatian and Cattle dog, that equals adorable & sweet.

Gets along great with other dogs, of course after a proper introduction.

He is very shy and timid at first, once he warms up, he just wants to be near you.

Atlas loves to run and his recall is pretty good. He enjoys learning things, is easy to train, he will let you dress him up, brush his teeth, clean his ears, and he is good at letting you know he needs to potty

Stuffies are his favorite thing to destroy, otherwise he might get into other things laying around, he is still a puppy. Loves nice, hearty chews to keep him busy.

Atlas is getting more comfortable with kisses and hugs. We don't think he was ever cuddled before, still somewhat of a foreign concept to him.
good car rider

Atlas will be neutered with his adoption.

We do not know about kids or cats at this time. We think he would be fine with kiddo's over 9+ years old.

Additional adoption info

The first step in our adoption process is for the prospective adopter to complete our Adoption Application Questionnaire which helps us best match you with the the dog that would be most suited to your home environment and expectations.

Our adoption application can be downloaded from our website www.savethedals.org

If you are having difficulty accessing the adoption application, email us at info@savethedals.org

If based on the Application Questionnaire we think one of our dogs is a good match to your home environment and expectations, we will follow up with a phone call, advise you of the adoption fee, schedule a home visit if applicable, and arrange a meet and greet with the dog. Adopters are also required to sign our Adoption Contract, you will be provided a copy of the contract for you to review and ask questions before you adopt the dog.

Note that we often have multiple applicants wanting to adopt the same dog. Our selection process is not based on whose application we receive first. It is based on who we believe will be the best match for the dog, allowing for the greatest success of a high quality, loving forever home, with the least likelihood of the dog needing to be returned to rescue.

We commit to the life of each dog we rescue, such that at any point in the life of the dog if its adopter is no longer able to keep the dog, the adopter signs our adoption contract agreeing that they will return the dog to Save The Dalmatians and Others Canine Rescue. The dog is not to be turned into an animal shelter.

Our available dogs are usually in private foster homes located throughout California. We also have dogs in out-of-state foster homes.
Meet & Greets are scheduled after an application is approved.

More about this rescue

Who we are: Save the Dalmatians and Others Canine Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, tax-exempt organization dedicated to the rescue of Dalmatians from shelters, the promotion of adoptions of shelter Dalmatians and education of the public about the Dalmatian breed. We began in 1996 when founder Terri Haase and a friend started taking their Dalmatians to movie theaters during the showing of "101 Dalmatians" to distribute educational flyers in an attempt to stop impulse buying of Dalmatian puppies. Save the Dalmatians was formally incorporated as a California non-profit corporation in 1998. Our brochure provides more detail.

Further documentation on our 501(c)3 status may be requested by writing to Save the Dalmatians, 2006 Pentuckett Ave, San Diego, CA 92104

What we do: Save the Dalmatians and Others Canine Rescue specializes in rescuing Dalmatians, Dalmatian mixes and other breeds from shelters and finding new permanent homes for them.

We also provide placement support to others fostering rescued Dalmatians and to Dalmatian owners who wish to rehome their own Dalmatians.

Another very important function of our organization is public education on spay/neuter and about the Dalmatian breed. We disseminate information via mail, email, telephone and at adoption events. We also work with newspapers, radio and television to have information about Dalmatians published or broadcast.

Save the Dalmatians and Others Canine Rescue is an affiliate of the Dalmatian Assistance League. We are all unpaid volunteers.
