Story
Biscuit has had such a hard life. Never had any affection shown all his life except when he needed to make puppies for his so called owner.He has health issues that keep him from being a first choice with adopters as well as being cautious of why anyone would be nice to him. We are catching him now come for pets and laying beside people. No rhyme or reason when or why he does this. Except maybe he is craving what the others dogs are getting. Rubs, scratches and contact with someone peaceful.Available dogs are met by appointment only and pre-approved adopters ONLY.Our dogs are currently in a foster homes which can answer your questions better than anyone else. We promise our fosters that we will qualify all potential adopters before we ask them to communicate with potential adopters.The application is the first step.
