Hemingway has been adopted! 09-26-2015
Don't let those chewed up ears fool you; while they not be perfect, Hemingway IS and in every way. He came to us off the streets of TJ with almost no hair, just skin and bones, but he's filled out and his hair is almost completely back.
This is one of the sweetest, mild mannered boys you could imagine. He is in a foster home with many other dogs and comes out to the front yard with no leash and just wants to hang - he has no desire to run off.
Hemingway gets along with everyone - we are certain he will love children, we know he gets along with dogs of all sizes and while we haven't proved it yet, he probably would find a cat to be his best friend.
After a rough life on the streets for many years (we think he is about 7 - 8 years old), you can't find a more gentle, kind, friendly boy than this. While he isn't 2, if you are a first time shepherd person, please consider this guy - he has a lot of years left, no health issues (other than getting all that hair to grow back) and no personality problems.
Hemingway is a rock star from south of the border!
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.
