Story
After much consideration, we’ve decided that it is best to rehome our sweet Ricky Ricardo. He’s around 4-5 months and will be fully up to date on his shots on 01/18 and microchipped at that time as well. He is a rescue, he and his sisters were living in a drainage ditch. He’s very loving but has the typical BMD temperament at this age. He is loud, jumpy, hungry, playful, and bitey. We’ve come to terms that we cannot provide him the time and attention he deserves. In addition to lack of time, we have two small Chihuahuas and are finding that Ricky’s constant need for attention is putting stress on them as well. He is not aggressive towards children or people. He is not aggressive towards our smaller dogs. He is potty trained but we still use a diaper at night just in case. Will come with food, bed, uo to date shot record. Sleeps in a bed next to our bed as he does get separation anxiety which is normal for this breed.

Story
Meet Bumi.  This gorgeous boy is a Bernese Mountain Dog/Golden Retriever mix, also known as a Golden Mountain Dog. His original family purchased him from a breeder, but our vet believes they were allergic and unable to continue caring for him. Their loss is truly someone else’s gain because Bumi is an AWESOME dog. Bumi is being fostered by Ramya and her family, which includes a 10-year-old son, two large dogs, and three cats, and he does well with everyone. He loves kids and has been fantastic with their son and his friends. With dogs, he’s polite, adaptable, and reads the room well. He’s happy to play with the energetic pup, and respectful with the other dog who prefers space. He’s also good with cats (even though they’re still keeping their distance ). Bumi gets daily walks and has great leash manners; he even knows heel! He meets new people and dogs without issue and handles an active household with ease. Ramya describes him as playful, affectionate, and a total snuggler, but not pushy about attention. He also has excellent house manners: fully housetrained, crate-trained, and even chooses to nap in his crate on his own. Overall, Bumi is a big, sweet, happy-go-lucky boy who would make an amazing family dog.   NOTE: Bumi will be coming to town on 12/6 and is going to a foster-to-adopt home. We'll give his foster family a few weeks to assess his fit before we consider other adopters.   BEED ESTIMATE: Bernise Mountain Dog/Retriever Mix - Golden Mountain Dog GENDER: Male APPROXIMATE WEIGHT: 89 bs APPROXIMATE AGE: ~3.5 years old COAT TYPE:  Medium wavy coat ADOPTION FEE: $425 OTHER INFO: UTD on shots/neutered/microchipped LOCATION: Columbia, SC   FOR MORE INFO OR TO ADOPT: Please go to https://adopt.worthydog.org and complete the application. You can also help save dogs like this one by becoming a foster, providing a rescue dog with a temporary home and giving them the love and care they need until they are permanently adopted. Every person who fosters is directly responsible for saving the life of a dog, because we can only save as many dogs as we have foster families available to welcome them into their homes. If you think you might be interested in becoming a foster and want to learn more, please go to https://foster.worthydog.org and fill out an application.

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire athttps://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic.You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.Dog's Name:   Sheila  (SHE1025ALAFD)Estimated Breed:   Bernese Mountain DogApproximate Age:   5 yearsApproximate Weight:   61 lbsCurrently Living at:   BoardingAdoption Fee:   $500DOG'S DESCRIPTION:   Meet Sheila — the Beautiful, Bashful Bernese!      At 61 pounds of pure fluff and quiet grace, Sheila is a gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dog with the kind of smile that could melt glaciers — but don’t expect her to walk a red carpet just yet. Sheila is a little shy with people and still learning that humans can be pretty great. She spent her early life as a mama dog, raising pups instead of chasing tennis balls. Now it’s her turn to be loved, spoiled, and told she’s the prettiest girl in the world — which, by the way, she absolutely is.     Sheila gets along wonderfully with other dogs and finds comfort in canine company (she is in foster with two other dogs and would love a confident dog buddy to show her the ropes). She is still learning that people can be good, so is slow to warm up and prefers to have her own space to decompress.  She’s quiet, gentle, and just wants a calm, patient home where she can blossom at her own pace.  If you’ve got a soft voice, a big heart, and maybe a cozy couch with a dog-shaped dent waiting to be filled — Sheila is ready to start her happily-ever-after.  Apply today and meet this beauty in person!   While Sheila has made a lot of progress on leash with her foster mom, she currently still needs a fenced in area to go potty.  Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.    Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSPONSOR ME! Help Save Lives!    Make a tax-deductible donation today and help save a life.
