Lobo has been adopted! 05-12-2007

When we first rescued Lobo, it was obvious that nobody had loved him for a long time. This gentle guy was unceremoniously dumped at the shelter and the staff there never really got a clear answer as to why - he's good with other dogs, good with kids, well mannered and quiet. He was in a run with two small and yappy dogs and he was quietly dignified.

Lobo was originally placed a few months ago but has been returned to us - he is suffering from an ear infection that we are working on clearing up and he also has a struggle with weight (like so many of us do!)...

We aren't certain of Lobo's age - over 7 but one thing that we are certain about...Lobo absolutely adores children. His foster mom reports that he followed her four year old granddaughter everywhere - one day, she couldn't find him and upon checking her granddaughter's room, found her reading a story to Lobo, who patiently listened to every word! This guy is amazing - he is a "steady Eddie" with such an agreeable personality. His foster mom has been taking care of his ear infection and with good food and a warm bed, he is blossoming. Lobo is perfect!

The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible when permitted by law. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
