This helps Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue with pet care costs.
Auggie is an adult Chocolate Lab (born 2020). He is a gentle giant who has no idea that he's a big dog. He gets along with older children very well, but hasn't been around younger children or cats. Auggie is housebroken and crate trained. He knows some commands and fetches. He tends to bark at times and will let you know how he feels about something.
Auggie is very protective of his food and tends to be reactive toward other dogs, so he'll need to be the only dog in his new home. He would benefit from having his own personal space for dining so he feels safe at meal time.
The perfect home for Auggie would be a calm, structured environment living with someone who has experience with large breed dogs and can give him time, attention and consistency. He should be the only dog in the home.
Auggie will need a fenced yard because he will go out on his own to explore if he sees an open gate or door. He has always returned on his own and is doing better about following recall commands.
The suggested adoption donation for Auggie is $375 which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.
Adoptions for Auggie are limited to the area within 50 miles of Omaha so that he can continue to take advantage of free training from our certified positive reinforcement trainers.
Please Note: A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster. This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we only assist the owner in finding a new home for their pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue, and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is unavailable for adoption.
Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver.
Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
