Sarge was found as a stray and unfortunately nobody ever claimed him. He came to us from a local shelter because he does have some anxiety issues. He will need a patient owner that has the time to work with him and give him the attention he very much deserves. Sarge can get very nervous around new people and will need someone to help him move past the unforuntate events that have happened previously in his lifetime. Sarge appears to be very well housetrained and knows a few commands as well. Sarge is such a loyal dog and will make someone an excellent companion. He is a big love bug and such a handsome fella! *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly. |
