He came to our rescue tiny, starved, and with a limp (last video). He is now a big, healthy boy and is ready to find his happily ever after. He has been raised among dogs of all sizes and is great with everyone. He doesn't have an ounce of aggression and is submissive or even-keeled with other dogs. He is also absolutely great with cats. One of the few dogs I would leave unattended with my cats even if I am gone for a long period of time and not worry about it. He follows me without a leash, doesn't run off, does well in the crate, will go to the door when he has to potty (but will likely need a little bit of re-training in a new/non-rescue environment) and loves water. He will bark at strangers if they come to the property which is a great deterrent for unwelcomed visitors but is sweet when he sees that there is no danger so he will protect you without causing any problems for anyone who is welcome at your home. Dare I say he is the perfect dog? He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue/reviews Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Seattle/Tacoma) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Illinois (Vandalia) - Indiana (Spiceland) - Ohio (Columbus) - Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) Vetting: neutered, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm test (negative).
