Meet Toast! She is great with other dogs and even participates in a doggie day care program. She was teased by children in her prior home so a home without kids would be best for our little Toasty.

Story
Vinny is a young cattle dog with energy to burn and love to give! This affectionate adventurer is always ready to hit the trail, whether it’s a long walk through the neighborhood, a hike in the woods, or maybe even an agility class to show off his athletic side. Vinny needs to be in an active household with another young playful dog. When it's time to rest, he enjoys a soft lap.He’s a social butterfly who gets along beautifully with other dogs and has been a total sweetheart with kids of all ages. Vinny’s also cat-friendly, making him a great fit for multi-pet households. Just one thing to note—he’s got opinions, and he’s not afraid to share them! Vinny is vocal, so his future family should be comfortable with a dog who likes to chat.Because of his active nature and expressive personality, Vinny would thrive in a home with space to roam and play—not so much in an apartment. He’s looking for a family that loves the outdoors, appreciates a loyal companion, has another young dog to play with and doesn’t mind a little joyful barking along the way._________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for Vinny is $ 575.00WANT TO MEET VinnyThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on Vinny and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.orgAll our animals available for adoption are living in foster homes.
