Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact SSRR (Adoptions@southernstatesrescuedrottweilers.org) for more information about this pet. Jake is a total love bug and sweet pup! He loves attention and cuddles! He plays well with the other puppies in his foster home and tries to make friends with the adult dogs. He is great with both small and large dogs. Cats aren't available in his foster home, so we are not sure how he would react. He walks fairly well on a leash and is learning his other commands like sit. Jake is good with the crate but often needs to have a treat put in there for motivation. He uses it at night and when his foster mommy is at work. He also knows how to use a pet door to access the fenced in yard and sometimes uses the steps but will most often use the ramp which goes by the fresh water for the dogs. He'll stop to drink which blocks the other dogs from getting into the yard, lol. He's crated in the car and rides nicely without any vocalizations. Jake would do well in a 42" crate for now. He is a bit of a grazer when it comes to food. He is a precious boy and is very playful. Jake's favorites are to play, sleep, and lie on his back! Jake is a little head strong so will do best in a home that can provide positive, consistent training. Jake is also a survivor! He survived parvo and has recovered nicely, gaining weight and has been given a clean bill of health. Upon approval to adopt, you will be sent SSRR Decompression and Introduction requirements that we require ALL of our adopters to follow . You will be asked to acknowledge receipt of these requirements, verify that you have read them and that you will follow them. **PLEASE NOTE: Young puppies are always lovable, but they require a lot of attention, effort, exercise, good nutrition, and proper training to develop into lovable and socialized adults. Please do not apply to adopt a puppy unless you are 100% committed. FENCING AND EXERCISE REQUIREMENT It is SSRR’s position that young puppies, as well as highly energetic dogs, should be placed in a home with a fenced yard, as they need to be able to run and play for proper physical and mental development, without always being confined to a leash. Uninhibited play time allows for the puppy to burn off some energy as well as helps their social development. We have found that puppies that are not afforded this activity, most often develop undesirable habits or behaviors. We try to prevent bad behavior before it begins. SSRR does not accept underground fencing as the primary source of confinement for any of our dogs at any time. SSRR does not place puppies to homes where they have to be left alone 8-9 hours a day. It’s just too long with no activity for the pup, and also it’s almost impossible to house train a puppy that way. Homes without fences and that gone longer periods of time are rarely approved and evaluated on a case by case basis depending on the situation and their planned activities to meet the needs of the puppy.
