If you're out on your own, feeling lonely and so cold. All you gotta do is call Rory and I’ll be there as your best friend!
**Hi, I’m Rory, and I can’t wait to meet you!**
I’m currently living with three doggy siblings and two senior cats. I’m so friendly that I greet new friends with sweet little kisses on their hands and will immediately ask to be picked up for some cuddles.
I’m a curious and adventurous pup who loves exploring, but I always stay close to my foster moms. Recently, my foster mom took me out without a leash, and I was so attentive that the moment I lost sight of her, I ran straight back to find her. She says my recall is really impressive, even with just a little training! I’ve also been showing off my fetch skills by consistently bringing the ball back when called.
I adore playing and cuddling with dogs of all sizes. I learn quickly by watching my older foster sisters and love play-fighting with my 50-pound and 80-pound sisters. I’m also very respectful of our oldest foster sister, who prefers quieter times. I’m curious about cats, too — but I always give them space. One kitty has even started napping on the couch next to me because I’m so calm and respectful around them.
When I’m not busy playing, I love to relax. You’ll often find me sprawled out on the couch or curled up on a dog bed surrounded by my toys. I’m pretty independent and very good at entertaining myself while my foster moms work and my foster sisters nap.
My foster moms say I’m a quick learner — I’m already picking up commands like “no,” “come,” “sit,” and “leave it.” Since I’m still young, housetraining is just getting started, but I’m doing great with indoor potty pads and am beginning to walk toward the front door when I need to go outside.
At night, I sleep in a cozy crate with my favorite lamb toy. I sleep well through the night and rarely have accidents in the crate. In the morning I run straight to the front door after my foster mom lets me out of my crate, so that I can go pee outside. Then I curl up on the couch with my foster mom to grab a few more hours of sleep. I’m also a car ride rock star — I usually fall asleep right away and don’t cry on trips.
If you’re looking for a playful, cuddly puppy to join your adventures and snuggle sessions, please contact Safe Haven about me — I can’t wait to meet you!
Our standard adoption fee is $465. We offer a $15 discount for adopters who pay by cash or check, making the adoption fee $450.
The adoption fee includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal test, deworming, current on flea and tick preventative, and microchip.
To ensure the best match for both our dogs and adopters, we require a fully completed adoption application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with the entire household. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed.
Submitting an application does not guarantee adoption and does not obligate you to adopt; it simply allows us to begin the review process.
To request an application or for additional details, please email adopt@safehavendogsIL.org
