NOT YET TAKING APPLICATIONS – NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
NEW INTAKE 8/15/2026: Skrump - male - 4 years old - 20.4 pounds - Schnauzer/ Pug mix
Reason for intake: Skrump came in with his brother, Swami. They were posted in a Facebook group by the owner's niece a few days ago and we were tagged multiple times in the post. A lady involved in trying to find a place for them reached out to us. The owner is in the hospital, pretty much in a hospice state, so her precious dogs needed a place to go. We met her son at the home and retrieved the dogs. They'd been left there for days with someone going to feed and water them but sadly, the owner has not been able to take care of them or her house for quite some time. They were loaded with fleas and the house was in terrible shape. Please, NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS. The poor dogs were terrified and urinated on themselves as we were loading them. On the ride to the rescue, though, they started whining a bit so I talked softly to them to help them know it's ok. Once we started checking them in... Skrump's little tail started wagging as if to say "Hey... I'm a good boy." It was very touching. They both got baths and we got rid of the fleas immediately with a Capstar and then flea preventive. They got a good meal, some fresh water and a clean kennel. We know they might be scared with everything going on but soon, they'll realize it's just a new chapter for them. They are heading to the vet the week of 8/17/2026, for neutering and everything else they need. Stay tuned!
NOT TAKING APPLICATIONS: Many dogs, particularly breeder, hoarder or senior dogs, can have multiple medical issues that need addressed. Additionally, sometimes we take in young puppies requiring multiple vaccinations and/or quarantining. In this particular case, we are not yet taking applications either due to age or possible illness or some other reason. We will post when s(he) is ready for adoption. In the interest of fairness, EARLY application submissions will NOT be considered. Please note… we cannot respond to messages/emails, etc., on dogs that are NOT yet available for adoption. Please wait until the dog is available for adoption. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
