Notes from Save A Dog Rescue

Otis is being Fostered in Fort Wayne We can't say enough about Otis and what a great dog he is. He is smallboned at 43 pounds. He loves people, other dogs, and ignores cats. He is between 1 and 2 years old. He is very sweet and loves his dog buddies, snacks, and his toys. He’s not crazy about the leash yet, so he gets his exercise in a fenced area, running around and playing with his stuffies. He would love a home with another submissive dog to cuddle with. He truly loves his foster dogsHe had such a hard life in Louisiana before he came here. He deserves a great home. He was wandering the streets as a stray, and his body shows the trauma that comes from surviving as a street dog — he has many scars. He wandered into a lady’s yard, probably looking for food. Instead of giving him any help, she beat him with a baseball bat. He cowered down, did not react, did not get aggressive — he just took the beating until another person saw what was happening, stepped in, and took him to the shelter. Once approved, you may schedule a meetandgreet/adoption appointment to meet any of our available dogs or puppies. A $40 refundable deposit is required once your application is approved to hold this dog or schedule a meetandgreet. This helps us respect the time and commitment of our foster families and volunteers. The deposit is applied to the adoption fee or fully refunded if you attend your appointment and decide not to adopt. All puppies/dogs are up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and will be spayed/neutered before adoption. Adoption Fee: $200ADOPTION CRITERIA• A fenced yard is required for safety. • A household with an adult at home during the day to provide training, supervision, and companionship• Children 10+ (younger children considered casebycase)
