Dewie was found locally as a stray; he came when called and walked up to the teen boy who found him and laid his head on his chest. The vet estimates him to be about 1 to 2 years old and says he is a lab and "bird dog" mix-no guess on white kind of bird! Dewie weighs 55 lbs. His foster mom says that he is a sweet, loving dog who is housebroken. He quickly learned sit and stay, leash walking training is in progress, and he rides well in the car. He does well with all other dogs that he has met and seems good with cats too. He is playful but settles down nicely for relaxation and cuddle time.
He is crate trained, but has managed to escape a few times. His ideal new home would be one where someone is home the majority of the time. He would like an active, playful family with other dogs and maybe some kids too. Interest in continuing his obedience work would be a plus.

Applications are the first step in the adoption process. Please do not call or email simply to express interest. We are all volunteers and receiving your application saves us time and helps to determine the best match for both people and dogs.
We provide as much information as we currently have on each dog in their description. For questions on the adoption process, including fees, please review the Adoption page. If you have additional questions or are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application. Once we receive your application someone will be in touch to answer your questions.
We do not arrange visits to meet dogs without an application. If you'd like to meet a variety of dogs without filling out an application please attend one of our events, listed under the events link.
Thank you!
