About Pelee
Pelee came to us after his owner unexpectedly passed away. He is a sweet dog that can initially be timid, but he warms up quickly. He loves attention and seems good with kids, but we think older children would be best for him.
Pelee would love an active family to take him for lots of walks. He’s very good on leash. He does pull, when he sees a squirrel or rabbit, but who can blame him?! Due to Pelee's strong prey drive and preference for being the only dog, a home without any other animals would be best.
Pelee has been through a lot of change recently and is showing some signs of separation anxiety. He would love to be adopted by someone who can be home quite a bit and would be willing to help him work through his anxiety. He's a very good boy and desperate to be someone's best friend again!
Adoption Fee | $500
Adoption fees help cover the costs associated with rescue, such as vetting, boarding, and transportation.
Prior to adoption, dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and 4Dx tested, and they receive any necessary treatment. After adoption, they are eligible for one month of free pet insurance.
For more information about adoption fees, please review our Adoption FAQs & Fees page.
Why We Love Fostering
-
I have always loved animals and I spoil my own pets enough, so I figured "Why not try fostering?" That's when everything changed. I found that fostering is incredibly rewarding, because not only do you care and love each cat that comes into your home, but you get to send them to their furever homes and see the adopter’s faces light up when they meet them. Building the foundation of the kitties is what makes fostering such a wonderful experience. There is truly nothing better.
Why We Love Fostering
-
We love fostering because the dogs bring so much love and joy into our home. Seeing them adjust to life in a home, come out of their shells and become their happy, playful selves is so rewarding. It's also a great feeling so see them got adopted by a home that will love them forever. The foster dogs also have a lot to teach us about resilience, adaptability, trust and unconditional love. They inspire us to be better versions of ourselves. If they can survive their histories while still being loving and happy, so can we.
