Story
If you would like to apply to take RIVER home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. River, is a very gentle, easy-going, calm, laid-back, would rather have his belly rubbed and be by your side, then play with toys kind of boy. He is very loving and sweet and follows you around. He loves to be loved on and rolls over to get belly rubs as much as he can. He loves to play in the water and that’s the most playful you’ll see him when he is splashing around in the little kiddie pool. He is great with kids as well. He’s awaiting a heartworm test, but if he’s positive we will treat prior to adoption, will update when we know.

Story
8 weeks old and ready to start a new life! These little ones are mixed breed dogs. Mom, a 40ish pound mutt, and dad, a roughly 40lb blue heeler have made the cutest little pipsqueaks! Not even 5lbs yet, we aren't quite sure how big they'll be but based on the parents shouldn't be more than 40lbs... but seriously, dont hold us to that. As 8 week old puppies they need to learn all the things, but we are sure they are smart and will be quick to learn. Dogs, cats, kids... we're sure with appropriate introductions these pups will thrive in any home dedicated to putting in the time and effort raising them. Brighten up your home by adding a little one. Give the shelter a call at 603-472-3647 and press 1 for adoptions.
