History: Sonny is a unique little fella who needed a second chance to a good life. He dreams of finding his forever home soon and would make a great addition to a lucky home of his very own!
A note from the foster: Sonny is doing great! He’s doing great with potty training as long as the temperature is above 10 degrees. He uses puppy pads when it’s colder. Sonny is the sweetest little guy who loves to cuddle with his people. He is the ultimate lap dog. His house manners are very good too. He’s rarely left at home without human supervision, but has no problems on the occasions he is left at home. He’s a good eater who is not picky. Sonny loves the puppy dental chew he gets every morning. He gets along with my lab, chihuahuas and beagle mix. He hasn’t had any contact with cats, but I don’t think it would be a problem. Everyone who meets him, loves him. His only downside is he loves to run, and looks for opportunities to do so. I’ve taken him to neighbors with secure fences and he runs around with what I’m sure is a big smile on his face. He does love to go for walks though and would likely be happy if he is walked daily.
Adoption Fee: $550 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsively more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
