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 Brody - a sweet, playful dog looking for a home with space to run and someone patient to love him. I adopted him in 2021; he previously lived with a family whose young child was scared of his size, so he was often put away. He’s great with other pets and kids but needs slow introductions. Brody is protective and can growl or nip if approached too quickly, especially by tall people or those who reach near his face. He does best on a leash with a harness and in calm, structured environments. Once he trusts you, he’s loyal, silly, and full of love. He thrives with other playful dogs and loves tennis balls and running free. He needs continued training and someone who understands fear-based behaviors. I recently moved to a small apartment and want what’s best for him. Brody deserves space, structure, and a home that sees the amazing dog underneath his anxiety.
