Bob's Story

Weight: 55lbs<br/>Age: 8 years<br/><br/>Meet Bob! Bob is the sweetest gentle soul. He was rescued in Texas.<br/><br/>Bob has a great mix of low energy (at home) and moderate energy on the walks. He walks great on the leash. He is perfect for an apartment, he naps at home all the time with occasional play time, he loves fluffy soft toys and puzzles with treats. He does not understand fetch.<br/><br/>Bob is great with all people and kids, always looking for pets. He is great in elevator and other small places (e.g. Roosevelt Island tram where he rides 5-7 mins each way like a true gentleman).<br/><br/>Bob only met cats outside and his instinct is to try to catch them so he would need some time adjusting to a house cat. I feel like he would prefer to be the only dog at home but he will adjust to a female dog for sure. <br/><br/>Bob is completely house trained, he goes potty 3 times a day. We do a long ~2 hour walk in the am - he meets lots of unleashed dogs in central park (while being on leash and is friendly with 90% of dogs). Bigger unfixed males can bring out his more dominate side. <br/><br/>He can stay home alone (out of the crate) for 4-5 hours easily (i have not try longer).<br/><br/>He knows sit and paw, his recall is pretty good, he is getting much better with "no" and "leave it" commands. He is fully adjusted now to washing his paws after each walk and walks to the bathroom and steps into the bathtub by himself :D<br/>I think he will best match with someone who had dogs previously and can understand dogs body language (he appreciates some boundaries when strangers greet him). <br/><br/>He is generally a very easy dog, he would go anywhere with you very happily, very easy to manage, he loves treats and is quite trainable if needed. <br/><br/>**Bob previously tested positive for heartworm and was treated before he left Texas**<br/><br/>INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?<br/>To adopt Biscuit, apply on our website www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt and email adopt.truenorthrescue@gmail.com to follow up on your application.<br/><br/>PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE. IF THIS LISTING IS UP, THE DOG IS NOT ADOPTED YET.<br/><br/>Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue. We choose a home based on the BEST FIT for EACH dog and approve on a dog by dog basis. Thank you!

True North Pet Rescue Mission's Adoption Policy
First Step: Submit Your Application True North does not issue blanket approvals, we consider the needs of each specific dog when reviewing applications. If you don't have a specific dog in mind when applying, please note this on your application so that we can keep this in mind when reviewing. We require home photos for all applicants, but can accept a video replacement. Please enter as much detail as possible on your application, this helps us better understand what you are looking for and how this relates to the needs of the dog you have applied for. For puppies under 12 weeks, we require a care plan. This includes a plan for when the dog will be left alone, as puppies younger than 12 weeks should not be left alone longer than 2-3 hours at a time. Please Note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, it is not always possible to reply to everyone. If your application is approved, you can expect the following. Second Step: Application Review & Approval 1. If your application is approved, an email will be sent connecting you with the dog's current foster. At this time, you may schedule a mutually convenient time to meet. 2. After meeting, you have 24 hours to confirm if you would like to move forward with finalizing the adoption. After this, if we have not heard from you, we will begin scheduling other meets. 3. If you choose to finalize, we will issue an adoption contract via email. Once the signed agreement has been electronically returned along with the adoption fee (which will be disclosed prior to adopting), you will be all set to coordinate for pick-up with the foster! Adoption Fees: Our adoption fees are comparable to those found amongst other well-known rescues in the city. We only accept electronic payments for adoption fees.
