HELP US FIND NEMO HIS HAPPY ENDING!
Our sweet boy Nemo is just a couple of weeks away from graduating from his SIX-WEEK BOARD AND TRAIN PROGRAM, and we have one very important thing left to accomplish.
WE NEED TO FIND HIM A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!
Nemo has spent the last several weeks working incredibly hard to become the best version of himself. He's learned obedience, built confidence, improved his social skills, and made some truly amazing progress.
But there's one thing we can't teach him in training.
What it feels like to have a home of his very own.
Nemo is an incredibly intelligent, affectionate, active boy who bonds deeply with his people. Once you're his person, you're HIS person, and he will absolutely adore you.
He's also got a few quirks, and we want to be completely transparent about what his perfect home looks like.
Children 15 and older: Nemo does best with people who understand boundaries and can respect his personal space.
No small animals: While Nemo does well with other dogs, smaller animals aren't a good fit for him.
Dog friendly: With proper introductions, Nemo enjoys other dogs! He has a particularly funny fascination with black, fluffy dogs. Apparently, our handsome boy has a type!
A quieter household: Nemo would thrive in a home with a predictable routine, a little peace and quiet, and people he can build a strong relationship with.
An active family: Hiking, running, exploring, and outdoor adventures? Nemo would LOVE that! He's a smart, energetic boy who enjoys having things to do.
Supervised outdoor time: Nemo is quite the talented fence climber! Although his recall has improved tremendously, he still needs supervision and secure handling outdoors.
Continued respect for his boundaries: Nemo has made wonderful progress with meeting new people and navigating public environments. He just needs strangers to approach appropriately and give him a chance to feel comfortable.
AND THE BEST PART? NEMO COMES WITH LIFETIME TRAINING SUPPORT!
We're not simply handing Nemo over with a list of commands and wishing everyone good luck.
His new family will receive:
Lifetime refresher training sessions
Help from his trainer during his transition into his new home
Guidance on maintaining his obedience and continuing his progress
Support to help Nemo and his new family build a wonderful relationship
We have invested six weeks into helping Nemo succeed, and we're committed to making sure that success continues long after graduation.
Now, here's the part that breaks our hearts.
Nemo does not do well in a traditional boarding environment.
He struggles emotionally, becomes withdrawn, and simply isn't the same happy, affectionate dog we see when he's able to spend time with people and participate in everyday life.
We've watched him blossom throughout his training. We've seen his personality shine, his confidence grow, and his ability to navigate the world improve.
The thought of him finishing all this hard work only to return to a kennel is absolutely devastating.
Nemo deserves to graduate into a HOME, not back into boarding.
He doesn't need a perfect family. He needs the right family.
Someone patient. Someone active. Someone who appreciates a dog with a big personality, a huge heart, and a few little quirks.
Someone who understands that rescue dogs aren't always perfect, but they are absolutely worth the effort.
And if you're not quite ready to adopt? FOSTERING NEMO WOULD BE JUST AS INCREDIBLE!
Giving him somewhere comfortable to land while we search for his forever family would mean the world to us and, more importantly, to Nemo.
NEMO'S NEXT CHAPTER IS WAITING!
