My personality

My story

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

Darling little Alfie is just about a year old and he weighs just over 8lbs. He is a little insecure when he first meets new people, but he warms up quickly to become an affectionate boy that likes to burrow under the covers at bedtime. He gets along great with other dogs and loves to run through the yard and play with his foster siblings. After playtime, he’ll curl up in the sun with the other dogs to take a nap. It would be great if there was another small dog in the home. As long as he has regular potty breaks, he is house trained. He’s not happy about being crated, but when crated, he will settle down until you return home and let him out to play. Because he can be a bit insecure, kids must be over 12yrs old. He should not be left alone for more than 4-5hr intervals

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters should email info@k9rr.org to request an application. Once complete, the application can be returned via email and quickly reviewed. If approved, we then invite potential adopters to visit with one or more of the dogs that interest them. If the meet and greet goes well, we encourage a week long "trial adoption" to ensure a good match. During that week we communicate often and are available for support and guidance, via phone or email, 24/7.

Unless otherwise specified, K9 R&R adoption fees range from $350-$500 and include all vetting and microchip. We also provide ongoing training tips and help as needed, for the life of the dogs.

K9 R&R is a non-profit, volunteer based organization.

More about this rescue

K9 R&R rescues dogs from shelters and other various facilities across the nation, but focusing primarily on those throughout the west coast. In addition, we help re-home family pets of owners who can no longer care for them. K9 R&R assesses and works with every dog prior to adopting them out and continues to provide support to adopters for the entire life of the dog. K9 Rescue & Rehab was founded with the desire to provide a more thorough, inclusive, supportive approach to dog rescue and re-homing. When adopting a K9 R&R dog, you are not only adding a new family member, but are becoming part of an extended family that is always there to support you in hard times and celebrate with you in joyful ones.
