Notes from Wag On Inn Rescue

Spade is a gorgeous Boxer Pittie mix who needs a new home without other dogs. Spade is about 1.5 years old. He is a friendly, happy, wiggly-butt with people and plays with the other 3 dogs in his current home when outside.

He meets some new dogs on a leash very well, but can be reactive to others. He is housebroken and good in the car, and loves his squeaky toys! Spade is a big lap dog and LOVES to sleep under a blanket. He is good with children, but because he can get excited when meeting would be best with bigger kids. He loves to play in water outside! Spade can be left alone without being crated with no issues. He has no experience with indoor cats. Spade is neutered and UTD on all vaccines. Spade does have some anxiety which is being managed with Prozac.

He will make a fun and great companion to a family with no other pets. A fenced in yard would be appreciated.

Spade is available for foster or adoption, or foster-to-adopt. His adoption donation is $500.

Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
