Bernie -Big ol' Happy Boy!'s Story

Say hello to our Pal, Bernie! Bernie was picked up stray by our local shelter, and no one ever came for him. :( Bernie was soon placed on the euthanasia list for space in the overcrowded shelter. We couldn't let him lose his life after we saw how sweet he was with the volunteers! So, here he is! Bernie is estimated at about 6 years old and is a good boy! He's in a foster home with kids and does great with them. He also has lots of dogs in the home, and does great with them! He even has a bff, as you can see in his video. The alpha male in the family doesn't like Bernie, and so now Bernie doesn't like hin either! Can't blame him for that! He always does well with all our other dogs at events! If you're looking for a mature guy who is still playful but done with the crazy puppy antics, Bernie may be your guy! Please fill out an application here if you'd like to meet him! https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/GARP/Dog Please also follow us on Facebook to keep up with all our Pals, events, and announcements! https://www.facebook.com/share/ahFTecYpLt3bLPkf/?mibextid=qi2Omg

Rescue Pals, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

Thank you for your interest in one of our Pals! Our adoption fees for dogs are: Puppies up to 1 Year Old : $400 Adult Dogs 1 - 9 Years : $350 Senior Dogs 10 - 12 Years : $300 Super Senior Dogs 12 + Years : $150 Kittens up to 1 Year Old : $125 Adult Cats 1 - 12 Years : $95 Senior Cats 12 + Years : $75 If multiple cats/kittens are adopted to the same home at the same time, each kitty after the first (youngest) will have their fee reduced by $25. All dogs and cats are or will be: spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Here is our adoption process: Applicants must be at least 21 years of age. Applicants must be ready for a new pet to come home immediately after the entire adoption process is complete and approved. We are not able to hold animals if you have travel coming up, etc., so please be prepared to make arrangements for your new pet if that is the case. After submitting an application, your information will be reviewed and a vet check will be done for your current and past pets (going back 5 years). Your pets should be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and on heartworm prevention. Veterinary medical exceptions will be taken into consideration for any of those items. If you and the pet you are applying for seem like a great fit, a member of our adoption team will contact you for a telephone interview. After that, a home check will be done, and then a meet and greet (maybe at the same time!). If all is well and everyone agrees that this is the right new family member for you, the adoption can be finalized at that time! Please note that we are an all-volunteer organization, and in some cases when multiple applications come in for the same pet we may not be able to respond to each applicant. If a pet no longer appears on Petfinder, it means he or she has been adopted. Applying for a pet does not place that animal on hold, or guarantee approval. Our goal is to make the very best match that will last a lifetime for the pet, so we hope everyone can understand and appreciate that. If your application is approved through 1st review and vet check, but we don't feel that the pet you're interested in is the right fit, we may suggest another who we feel would be a better fit for your lifestyle/what you're looking for. Thank you so much again for your interest in adopting a Pal, and helping us save lives!
