Decibel's Story

Decibel is a handsome male German Shepherd estimated around 7 years of age. Decibel was found as a stray and unfortunately we do not know his history or background prior to arrival at the city shelter.<br/><br/>Decibel is a friendly, social, and outspoken guy with a zest for life. He loves meeting new people and is quick to become besties with everyone who gives him half a second of attention. Decibel embodies Shepherd talkative behavior - he is pretty sure if he tries hard enough you can in fact understand what he is saying. Whining, barking, aaawhoowoowoo is his love language. Decibel has not been around any children under 10 since arriving with us but given his friendly nature we have no reason to think he would be bad with kids of all ages.<br/><br/>Decibel is neutral with other dogs and has done well getting along with his new foster siblings. He is currently playing babysitter to some puppies who think he is the best thing since sliced bread. He is of course still talkative in his play and interactions but since that is the song of the Shepherd most of his companions don't mind. Decibel has had limited interactions with the cats in his foster home and hasn't yet acknowledged their existence. Since the cats don't appreciate his vocal nature they are happy to ignore him.<br/><br/>Decibel is a loving, goofy, and outspoken guy who is looking for a soft landing in his senior years. If you're the home for him email us at tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQs

Tier Haven Rescue, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Tier Haven requires an adoption application to be completed and processed prior to meeting or adopting any of our dogs. As a completely foster based organization Tier Haven relies on the application to help ensure that adopters are meeting dogs that are suitable for their household and that the dogs are meeting adopters committed to their individual needs. We do not have a central facility nor do we allow drop in visits on our foster homes for respect of their privacy and time. The application is completed via email and you may email Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com to obtain an application. We rely on your application to assist in matching you with a suitable dog and ask that you provide us with as much information as possible about why you're seeking a Shepherd and your expectations for the dog. When submitting an application please contact your vet clinic and provide them with a release of information and also inform your personal references that they will be contacted. Once your application is processed you will be contacted by a volunteer to discuss potential dogs and arrange a meet and greet. Since we are a foster based group we only allow up to three (3) dogs on each meet and greet to keep it manageable for everyone. Meet and greets are often held at public locations to respect the privacy of our foster homes and they are scheduled at the discretion of the foster homes. Tier Haven charges an adoption fee of $350 + taxes for each dog. This includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, heart-worm test, micro-chip, and *monthly preventative care while with our organization*. Tier Haven relies on the adoption fee to continue helping future dogs therefore we are unable to reduce the fee for any reason. *This means that if the dog has been with Tier Haven for longer than a month we can guarantee that they are up to date on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. This does not mean we will continue to provide monthly preventatives for the dog beyond its adoption* We do allow our adopters to take a dog home from their first meet and greet if they wish to do so. If you are intending to take a dog home please come prepared with a leash, collar, and your adoption fee of $350 plus tax. Each adoption is on a 10 day trial during which the adoption fee is refundable should the dog be returned for any reason. Even beyond our trial period we require our dogs to be returned to our care should they ever need rehomed for any reason - we are here for our dogs for their lifetime. If you have any questions about our adoption process that haven't been covered here please email them to us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com. ****Surrender Policy**** Tier Haven is unable to accept any owner surrenders due to the overwhelming number of Shepherds in shelters across the state. If you would like to discuss alternatives to rehoming such as training, dog day cares, and behavior management please email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com.
