Story
I'm heartbroken to have to rehome this wonderful dog and if I had any other choice I would keep her forever but it's not possible. Zarya is super sweet and loving, full of energy, and listens pretty well to commands like sit, shake, and wait. She is almost 3 years old and up to date on all shots and is spayed. She loves her squeaky nerf ball and takes it everywhere with her, and also likes other toys, bones and treats. Zarya is very playful and loves to run. She needs more attention and exercise, due to my work she is cooped up too much right now and would be happier with more time outside. She does not get along with cats at all and is iffy with other dogs, sometimes she gets along with them and sometimes not. She does pull on the leash sometimes on walks so I recommend using a harness but she listens very well to commands. Zarya is very cuddly and loves getting scratches, kisses, and pets. She is pretty good with kids but does get over excited and jumps sometimes.

Story
Jerry is an almost one year old puppy, born sometime in April. He is a real goofball and has a fun personality. He is super energetic and loves to run and play. He is house trained and will go to the door when he needs out. He can sit, come, shake, spin, lay, stay, and go to his place. He is very responsive to training. He is non-dominate and plays non-stop with other dogs. However, he is a resource guarder and needs positive based training only. He guards food and special toys and will snap at people and other animals if they get too close while in his possession. A home without kids and other pets will allow the fear associated with guarding to diminish.

Details
Good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained,
Story
Sugar may be a special needs girl, however, the emphasis is on the word 'Special.' To know this girl is to love her! Despite her diabetes and blindness, she is a happy, extremely loving and lovable dog. She just wants to have a family or person to love and cherish her. It may take her a moment to warm up to some men, but it's all about smooches from there on out! Sugar loves car rides and rides quietly and well, she likes to be by someone and does well on a leash. She would prefer to be the only pet, though, and would need a home where someone is at home much of the time. This girl is well worth the time and effort! If you would like to apply to adopt Sugar, please copy and paste our adoption application:app.sparkie.io/application?t=5f594979eb40a0002eea0df2&m=DOG_ADOPT

Story
Meet Louie Louie was adopted as a puppy and returned because when the other dog and Louie would play they would get carried away and bite each other. Come to find out when Louie was returned he had a terrible bacterial infection of his skin. It had raw, oozing lesions that were not treated properly. After many skin cultures and medication he is feeling much better and no more sores. This dog lives just to go bye bye! He listens well, is housebroke, crate trained and 100% cat friendly. He's a big goof at times, so toddlers would probably not be ideal, as that tail would be knocking them down. He shows no aggression with the other dogs. His adoption fee is $250.00 Fill out an app to adopt at www.saveamomrescue.com and be sure your vet knows it's ok to give us a reference. We call for your reference before setting up a meet and greet.

Story
Rory!! This pretty girl is ready for her new home. She came in from our local pound nursing newborn pups. I suspect she was just left to fend for herself as an outside dog. She has made amazing progress since her pups got adopted. She loves to go for walks, run in the yard and is learning how much fun toys can be. It's sad, but some dogs have no idea what toys are. She showed interest in the cats at first, but now will let them rub against her. She is also figuring out that the other dogs will not get her. I bet she was getting beat up on the streets. Rory looks to be about 2 yrs old and 48lbs. Her DNA is attached. She is spayed, microchipped, current vaccinations, 4dx parasite screen, on monthly heartworm/flea/tick prevention. Her adoption fee is $400.00 Fill out an application @ www.saveamomrescue.com and be sure your vet knows it's ok to give us a reference when we call.
