Story
Mable is a sweet medium sized dog who loves people. I found her on February 26th. I went through the proper channels to look for her family. Unfortunately, no one came forward. She is up to date on vaccines. Her spay is scheduled for July 29th. She is on flea and tick medicine as well as heartworm medication.She loves other dogs and people! She can be scared of new people, that is something we are working on. I am not sure about her life before I found her but she was in rough shape. A house with a fenced in yard or someone who can walk her often would be best!She loves going on walks and playing. She also loves cuddling up and taking many naps throughout the day. Please let me know if you are interested!

Story
Scobby is about 22 months and weighs 50lbs, she belonged to a homeless woman that hung out in front of my husband's Warehouse in California he goes there about once every two months he got to know her and discovered that she was unable to handle or afford Scooby so we offered to Foster her and she agreed . he took her to our other home in Ohio and we are trying to find her a forever home she loves everybody. She needs a big fenced yard to run in she was kept on a 6-ft rope for the first year and a half of her life so her first trip to the dog park to see her run was just heartwarming, she's very smart she learned four commands in a matter of a day, a dog this loving deserves a good home we would keep her but we have two small dogs and a rabbit, ,and squirrels and rabbits are a trigger for her so if you're interested in Scooby please let us know thanks for your consideration in this wonderful dog

Story
Please DO NOT fill out a inquiry if interested in adopting. Go to our website and fill out OUR APPLICATION. www.saveamomrescue.com Looking for adopters that have corgi experience as Shy is definitely going to take time to settle in. She is dog friendly and has not been cat tested. She lived with a single lady with 11 corgi mixes in the country was crated at night and was never socialized or around any children. We are assuming she is housebroken as we placed her sister and she was. Update: Shy did go in a foster for a night and had accidents so will need work on housebreaking.She is about 2 yrs old; We are looking for a quiet home that does not have many people come in or crates her if they do. Also requiring fenced in yard. A new home will need time and patience to get her to warm up to you. At first she likes to retreat under a chair but with treats comes out. A volunteer has been working with her for a month every day to get her out with different experiences. She does ride in her car but loves to be in the middle on the console. She does get on furniture, is not crazy about getting a collar on/off but walks well on a leash. She is spayed, microchipped, current vaccinations, 4dx parasite screen, and on monthly heartworm/flea/tick prev. Adoption fee is $400 Fill out an application @ www.saveamomrescue.com and be sure your vet knows we will be calling for a reference.
