Story
*Name: Nanook  *Approximate Age: 2 years old *Current Weight: 50lbs*Rescued from: Puerto Rico *Adoption fee: $550 (includes $50 refundable positive training commitment deposit)*Health: Up to date on vaccines Nanook is a resilient Australian Shepherd mix who was surrendered by an owner who kept him tied up 24/7. Despite his tough past, Nanook has come a long way—he’s fully crate trained and potty trained. Because of his experiences, he does best as an only dog and shouldn’t be in a home with cats. Nanook can be selective about other dogs, so he needs a confident adopter committed to giving him the stable, loving home he deserves. If you’re ready to open your heart to a loyal companion who’s been through a lot, Nanook could be your perfect match! Nannook will be traveling to us in February, and is eligible for our foster-to-adopt program.  Every dog adopted through BNR’s Rock n Rescue comes with a great head start: your choice of a 6-week positive reinforcement training program or a one-time virtual training session provided by Bark n’ Roll! Both options are designed to help your new pup settle into their forever home using fun, reward-based techniques that encourage good behavior and build a strong bond with you. To apply to adopt, fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Please note that RnR is a volunteer-based organization. While volunteers review applications as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the following information about our adoption process: LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents. We rarely know a dog's exact age or full breed mix of dogs, as our information is usually limited.RNR’s ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting one of our adoptable pups is to fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Once we receive your application, one of our volunteers will contact you, review our adoption process, and answer any additional questions you may have. It is important to note that we do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions but on the best fit for a family and, most importantly, the dog.MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until your adoption application is submitted and reviewed.APPLYING ONLINE: When completing an application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device); make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible and that you receive a confirmation email. ##2275898##

Story
I'm Paw, one of the two males in an adorable group of Aussie/Collie mix puppies. We’re 13 weeks old and each weigh about 15 pounds. Although we were surrendered because we were an unwanted litter, we are typical puppies: happy-go-lucky, silly, and playful. We have been in a foster home with other dogs, cats, and children, and we got along with everyone! Like all young puppies, we will benefit from someone being home most of the time at first. Please apply at https://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp, and someone will get right back to you.

Story
I'm Daily, a freckle-faced, year-and-a-half-old Aussie/Shepherd mix. I get along well with other dogs and like all people, including kids. I love to play with toys and with my canine friends, and I adore getting affection from humans. I haven’t been exposed to cats, but because of my gentle nature, I would probably be fine with them. I’m housetrained, I sleep 8-10 hours through the night, and I am quiet in ther home. I was very lucky to get my freedom ride to Massachusetts, as I spent a long time waiting in a Texas shelter with very little foot traffic. I was named after the Animal Control Officer who believed in me and helped me find my way to Save a Dog. Please apply at https://www.saveadog.org/applytoadopt.asp and someone will get right back to you right away. Available 1/27.
