Name: Rango Age: 10 years old Weight: 18 pounds Color: tri color Breed: Jack Russell Terrier mix Vaccines: up to date Altered: yes Heartworm Status: negative on prevention Energy Level: average House trained: yes, but marks Crate trained: unknown is not crated Dog friendly: yes Cat friendly: yes Kid friendly: yes Temperament: sweet, loving, cuddly Adoption fee: 175 Available for adoption anywhere in the US and Canada with transport provided at no extra cost Currently located in Chesapeake VA Application link: http://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/VACC/Dog Rango (and his best buddy Casey) have a tragic story. They had an wonderful human whos life was taken by a family member. We don't know what Casey and Rango experienced but we saw the heartbreak in their sad eyes. Thankfully a lovely woman who was friends with their human immediately went and picked them up. Within a few weeks they started to perk back up almost knowing they would be cared for and loved again. Rango is not bonded to Casey but they have lived together so many years, we are praying they can be adopted together. Rango has a history of seizures. The seizures are not severe or often enough to be on medication. He remains mobile, stable, and does not loose bowel movements during these episodes. We are continuing to monitor and if meds are needed , even after adoption, CCRT will get these meds started at our cost. Rango loves cuddling beside his human and napping. He is gentle and friendly and will make a great family member to almost any household

Story
Buddy Holly is an older gentleman coming in at 7 years. He is a jack russell terrier mix that was part of a recent transfer of a few other JRT`s from a hoarding situation. Buddy seems fairly social even walks well on a leash and seems to do well with other dogs. Due to Buddy`s history we are asking for children to be 6+ and any resident canines to come for a meet and greet. Buddy will need a dental prior to adoption and this will be covered under our Grey Muzzle grant! If you would like to meet with Buddy or have more questions please speak with kennel staff and they will be happy to help.

Story
****As you may have heard the VBSPCA took in 6 dogs from a hoarding situation in TN. Please keep in mind that these canines will require time and patience as they settle into their new home. Staff may require multiple visits to make sure this is a good match for you and for the rescued canine. All of the dogs transferred will be seen by vet and medical needs addressed and surgeries scheduled as needed. We have a handout that will go over common concerns with under socialized dogs from cases like this. We ask that any applicants please be prepared that dogs from hoarding cases often are very fearful, difficult to housebreak, and may take longer to acclimate into canine companion life though the reward will always outweigh any struggles! *****Feisty came to us from our friends at Bissell after having lived his life with 200 other dogs. This sweet but shy man is looking for a fresh start here at the beach! Feisty will need children 16+ as he is very scared of loud noises and fast movements. He needs a canine friend in his future home and would need to meet them prior to adoption. Due to Feisty`s fearful and shy nature he is prone to attempting to escaping so we do ask that at the time of adoption his family bring a crate to safely transport her home. Our amazing kennel team can fill you in on the up to date medical needs for Feisty. If you would like to visit or have further questions please speak with our kennel staff!
