LINCOLN - If Lincoln had a mouth and could talk to tell you his story you wouldn't want to hear it. Lincoln was bought by a family for $50.00. They got him home and found out he was blind or partially blind and partially deaf. So they called our rescue and wanted us to take him because they couldn't handle a dog with these needs. They didn't want to take him back to the breeder because they said he would just kill him. Great breeder- not!
Lincoln was born the end of June. Lincoln is fully vetted and our vet said he is legally blind in human terms. He has some vision. Lincoln needs a home where someone is home most of the time to get him trained. He is a very loving and sweet dog that will give you all the love he has. He didn't ask to be born with these issues but is still a dog worthy of the time and attention. We are looking for an adult only home not because he has any aggression issues or anything just because we want him to be given the time and attention he deserves.
His adoption fee is 200.00. The fee helps us take care of dogs in our program that need more medical care. So when you are adopting you are helping another animal in need. Homevisit and references are required for all adoptions. He is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.

The key to no more homeless pets is spaying and neutering.

Adopting a friend
All of our pets for adoptions must go to homes that are committed to providing a loving environment for the animal's lifetime. Adding a pet to your home takes committment and understanding that the animal you bring in will be yours forever. All of our adoptions will be spayed/neutered before you take them home. Before you contact us to adopt please make sure you are able to commit the time and money it will take to care for a new pet.
Adoption fees vary: Remember we are doing this to help offset and pay for spay/neuter and verterinary costs which can range from 100.00 to 500.00 depending on the animals needs and conditions when coming in.
Purebreed adoptions range from $200.00 to $300.00
Mixed Breed Puppies and Young Adults $150.00 to $300.00
Senior and Adult Dogs $85.00 to 150.00
Cats $25.00 to Kittens $50.00
All adoptions are spayed/neutered before placement and a home visit and references are required. Please e-mail all questions about adopting before you call. We have a limited amount of volunteers that also work full time jobs.
Winnie needs a home! She is a great cat but needs to be the only cat. She is probably about 1 year old. She is loving and playful.

We are on facebook and would love to add you to our friend list.
All of our foster animals are kept in foster homes. That means they live with a family and are loved by that family. Our goal is to adopt a well-socialized, happy, healthy animal to you and your family. If you see an animal you are interested in just e-mail and we can connect you with the foster family.
