Story

Let us reintroduce you to Beau. He was adopted from us when he was just a puppy, approximately 3 years ago, named Phillip. He is now back through no fault of his own and is ready to find his FOREVER home. He’s a big boy that thinks he is a lap dog. He knows some basic commands, but would benefit from some more training. He is good with cats, kids, and dogs. He does have a sensitive stomach so a very slow transition in food will be needed. If you are interested in meeting Beau once his vetting is complete, please email us for an application at trainrescue@gmail.com.
