My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Draco has returned to SSR 12-2024, due to his owner's terminal illness. Draco was born with physical disadvantages and subjected to unspeakable torture as a puppy before coming to SSR, having signs of chemical burns on his face and a deformity to his hind end. He gets spooked by the strangest things, like tape measures and plastic bags. Draco has proven to be best friends to whomever he meets. He LOVES kids and other dogs. Draco enjoys a day of pampering of bath/spa treatment. He is an affectionate boy, he'll often demand some lovins'. Draco is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, housebroken, and around eighty pounds. He is an an active, well socialized boy that really loves his chuckit ball. This boy is ready to be a part of your family and will show how truly special he is!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first step to adopt one of our dogs is to complete an adoption application. Once you have submitted your application, a volunteer with call your personal and veterinary references. Following references, SSR will send out a volunteer to conduct a home visit and meet any members of your household. We come to your home and further discuss the adoption process.

The adoption application will let us know a little bit about you, your home, your lifestyle and what you are looking for in a companion. Anyone over the age of 18 is welcome to fill out our application to adopt one of our dogs. Your application will either be accepted or denied after the volunteer submits a home visit report.
