Pit Bull Terrier - Bugsy - Large - Baby - Male - Dog
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please visit our website to fill out an application for consideration. Thank you! www.goingtothedogsrescue.org
Foster Name: Bugsy I know my name? yes The people I currently live with are: Please list children?s ages:
Adults but I have been around children before I interact with them this way:
I am a sweet boy who loves attention and is eager to please! Other pets I currently live with are:
I am being fostered with other dogs and have attended events and met new doggies and do fantastic!
Activities I enjoy are:
o Running
o Playing People would describe me as:
o Curious
o Lap Loving
o Playful My activity level is:
o Moderate My vocalization level is
o Low My feeding schedule is: 2 times a day My food now is: TSC brand kibble My crate size is: Medium Am I potty trained? I am crate trained and always go right outside to do my business but you need to be patient and keep me on a good schedule As sweet as I am with humans, I am in need of a home with no other dogs because I get rather possessive of my toys and humans.
Other stuff my foster parents think is important for you to know:
My adoption fee is $150 which covers all of my medical care including spay, microchip, rabies, vaccinations, and wormers. Because I am a ?bully breed? you must have a fully fenced yard and obedience class is required with adoption.
Adoption Procedures:
We only consider your home for adoption after we receive an application. Once this is complete we then move on in the process to adopting your new best friend. Once we receive an application we review it to see if the particular dog(s) might be a good fit for your home/lifestyle and that you meet the required needs of the dog. Once this is done we proceed to check veterinary references. This is to ensure that pets you have or have had in the past were cared for, altered, and up to date with necessary medical care. Once you have been through this initial screening we then set up a home visit to ensure that the home is a safe home with little concern about their personality matching yours. We also want to ensure that the home is set up for the same energy levels or medical needs they may or may not have (dog that can't climb stairs, or not enough room to walk, etc.) These steps are important to ensuring that we are finding the proper home for the dog to be FURever!
A few requirements of adoption are:
*We currently do not adopt out of state. *We do not adopt to homes with smoking indoors due to health concerns for the pets *Our 'bully' breed adoptions require you to be a homeowner, have a fully fenced yard (not invisible fencing) unless you have acreage, and you are required to attend an obedience training class. This is due to the high rate of returns in dogs that are not properly exercised or trained and make it difficult to re-home. *We are a registered not for profit and do not earn a salary, our adoption fees are recycled to help rescue our future dogs. We are always looking for assistance on our team as well as donations to help run our rescue smoothly.
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. I applied to adopt a pitbull but we have an invisible fence not a solid fencing, can we still adopt?
-unfortunately invisible fencing is not full proof fencing and does not protect your own dogs from other loose dogs entering your property. Many dogs get out of invisible fencing and then are too afraid to return back to the yard, and there are just too many concerns with the bully breed to put them at risk.
2. Do you negotiate on your adoption fees? If I want to take the dog to my own vet for spay/neuter can I get a discount on adoption fees?
-Unfortunately 80% or more of our dogs cost hundreds more than we actually adopt them out for. When a dog has a major medical concern the rescue pays out of our adoption funds to get the dog the necessary help it needs to get it to an 'adoptable' status. We rely heavily on donations and adoption fees to be able to care
