My personality

My story

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

UPDATE:
Sweeney's foster dad says he is starting to settle in. (It can take up to 3 months for some dogs.) Sweeney is affectionate and loves to sit in your lap, but also likes his independence. He is getting to the know the other dogs in the house, but hasn't played with them much yet and hasn't shown much interest in the cat either. He is mostly potty trained and likes toys. He will give kisses "without overdoing it". He has really come out of his shell and will happily roll over for belly rubs for anyone willing to give them!
-----------------------------------------

Sweet, scared Sweeney was pulled into rescue after being taken to a rural shelter from a problematic situation where he did not get the type of attention he deserves. His transporter said he "made" her pet him during the entire 90 minute ride to Summerville. He will be fully vetted and is settling in to a loving, veteran foster home.

Check in to this site and our FB page for updates as we find out more about Sweeney and get him ready for adoption. Pre-adoption applications will be accepted.

EST. DOB: Jan. 2018

WE ONLY ADOPT LOCALLY WITHIN A 2 HOUR RADIUS OF THE TRICOUNTY AREA. ***Exceptions may be made for seniors or hard to place dogs.

If the animal is under the age of 3 years old or has health issues, a vet reference is required which means you must own a pet or have owned a pet in your name.

Adoption fee of $410 covers all vetting including spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, microchip heartworm test and treatment if needed and any other medical that may be required while in rescue.

We only do adoptions on Saturday and not all animals are able to attend so if you would like to see a specific animal please let us know so that we can make arrangements for it to be present at the event. Event locations do vary so please check the homepage to find out where we will be this week. Please do not ask us to reduce adoption fees since all fees help us to cover medical expenses for all of our animals, some of which can be very expensive. Saving lives is not cheap so thank you for your understanding and helping us save as many as possible.

Please email lowcountryanimalrescue@ymail.com for an application.
