Story
Fostering a dog from Texas that needs a forever home. She is a Besenji mix, short coat, doesn’t shed a lot, crate trained, potty trained, she is such a sweet dog. Even though she is still timid, she doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She is so kind and wants to be loved. Showing her the ropes so she can be a great pet. She is 9 months old. Super smart! She is really really good and I can’t wait for her to become more acclimated and come out of her shell. She follows me around and likes to nap in her crate (goes in by herself). At night sleeps in the crate quietly in my room so she knows someone is there. She wakes up and goes outside to do her business. Eats without a mess. She is super energetic and fast so you’ll need a yard or be ready to walk her a couple times a day at least. She wants to play with my small shih-tsu but my dog is not so excited about this :). I know she is going to be the best pet.

Story
Meet Carl! URGENT! LONGEST RESIDENT!!! CARL HAS BEEN WITH US SINCE JULY WITH NO INTEREST! WE ARE LOOKING FOR A LOVING FOSTER HOME FOR HIM! CARL LOVES KIDS!!!! This two-year-old basenji/bulldog boy is ready to make you swoon! Weighing in around 52 pounds, Carl's charismatic personality has everyone falling for him and we know you will too! Carl is a pup that knows how to have a good time! He loves cruising the yard with a variety of toys and makes sure to save some time for rolling in the grass. He knows "sit" and is capable of learning much more. Handsome as they come, Carl was a perfect pup for his photo shoot. Carl is a fun-loving guy who will need daily exercise and a yard to run in with a family that will continue his training/enrichment. He does have a prey drive so a fenced in yard would be ideal for him. Proving he also has a sensitive side, Carl appreciates his snuggle time and will lean in for a nice facial massage after a few minutes of playtime is over. He's also good on a leash and would make an excellent walking buddy for some lucky person. At a recent adoption event, Carl showed us all just how much he loves people-especially kids! He loved every ounce of attention he got, just melting into every person that took the time to pet him. Just look at how happy he is in his pictures! Based on our evaluations, Carl will do best in an active home with adults or families with kids ages eight and up. We feel he has the potential to live with other dogs of a similar size and energy level. We'd be happy to set up a meet and greet with your family fur baby. If Carl seems like your kind of pup, don't wait! Head to greatlakesdogrescue.com today and fill out an application for this dapper dude!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If interested in any of our animals for adoption, or to foster an animal, please fill out the respective application here to get the process started. Visit our FAQ webpage for commonly asked questions about our adoption/foster process. Comoros, aka Kuzco, aka Kuz, is back with Last Day Dog Rescue after being adopted out for a few years. He's an 8 year old guy who is a little nervous around small children. He loves his adult companions and would make a great forever friend for the right family! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal. Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed. The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label. Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by. November 26, 2023, 6:53 pm
