Story
Long story short, when we got her from her previous owner he didn’t disclose her behavioral issues/reactivity. We asked all the right questions but he lied about all of them. Unfortunately we are not in a financial situation to afford the training that she needs. She’s a sweet dog that needs the proper training. Please feel free to ask any questions!

Story
Born: October 21, 2023 I'm 62lbs and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $400 Meet Casper! Casper is a young, high-energy dog who is a bit nervous around new people but becomes sweet once he gets to know you. While he may be a little shy at first, he's friendly with the staff and gets along well with other dogs. He walks decently on a leash, and due to his nervousness, he would do best in a home with kids aged 10 and up. Casper needs patience and slow introductions to help him feel comfortable. With the right approach, he will be a loving and loyal companion!  All dogs are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, heartworm tested (if age appropriate), and up-to-date on preventatives at the time of adoption.
