We recieved him from a previous neighbor, we have had him about 6 months, had him neutered and microchipped. We just found out we have to move and cannot take him with us due to his size, he is a good, cuddly boy with a great heart. (We think he was abused in his previous home)

Story
Rooster is a sweet gentle soul that wants to make friends with everyone he meets. He’s a smart boy that is very well behaved. He currently lives with kids, other dogs, cats, rabbits and sheep that he socializes with well. But he is a bit fearful of the horses. He’d thrive in a loving home that would spend plenty of time with him and take him for walks and let him explore.

Story
*Name: Roman  *Age: 4.5 years old *Current Weight:  90lbs *Adoption fee: $375 *Health: Up to date on vaccines, neutered, & microchipped *Adoption requirements: Adopter must be 25 or older, experienced owner, due to breed restrictions Roman will only be adopted out to a home owner, fully fenced and secured yard. Meet this handsome guy Roman!!! Roman is goofy and loving with the people he knows and trusts. He loves to play and go for walks, and is a great snuggle buddy. He has had some advanced training and knows lots of commands and walks excellent on a leash. Roman is kennel and houstrained. He loves hiking and splashing in the water. Roman is sometimes unsure of people he has not met, so he would do best in an adult only home with somebody experienced in handling large dogs.  To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/ FAQs -- PLEASE READ ALL BEFORE EMAILING All adoption fees are non-refundable If paying by credit card, Venmo, or PayPal there is a set processing fee, generally this fee is under $15 per pet. These processing fees are determined by the form of payment adopters decide to use. By helping with this minimal cost this allows us to save more animals. Please note that SNARR NE is a volunteer-based organization. While our volunteers will try to respond to you as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the below information about our adoption process before emailing: LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the puppy's/dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents depending on the situation. *NOTE* We rarely know a dog's exact age, nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. Because we often do not have access to medical records at the time that we are listing for dogs for adoption, there are sometimes discrepancies between what is posted on their profile and what might be listed on a dog's medical records. SNARR'S ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting a SNARR dog/puppy is to fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/. Once we receive your application, one of our adoption application processors will contact you, review our adoption process with you, and answer any additional questions you may have. **We do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions, but on best fit for a family and most importantly the puppy or dog. ** MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until after your adoption application has been fully processed and approved by one of our adoption processors. APPLYING ONLINE: If you fill out an online application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device), make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible, and that you receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive a confirmation email, that means we did NOT receive your application. ##1427243##

Story
Meet Buddy – A Gentle Soul Looking for His Perfect Match! Buddy is a senior Ridgeback/Black Mouth Cur mix with a heart full of love and a personality that shines once he feels safe. He may be shy at first and take some time to decompress, but once he’s comfortable, his sweet and gentle nature comes through. Buddy absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys their company. He is both house-trained and crate-trained—in fact, his crate is his happy place! When left alone, he prefers the security of his kennel, and even when his humans are home, he often chooses to relax there with the door open. This lovable senior does well on a leash and would thrive in a quiet, low-energy home with a patient adopter who understands that he needs time to adjust. While he hasn't been around young children, his gentle nature suggests he would be great with them. We don’t know how he is with cats, but he gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Buddy’s favorite toys are anything soft and squishy, and he enjoys the simple comforts of companionship. He would be the perfect match for someone looking for a loving, loyal companion who doesn’t need a high-energy lifestyle. With patience and understanding, Buddy has so much love and potential to share. Are you the kind soul ready to give Buddy the forever home he deserves?
