Meet Dennis
Meet Dennis~
He is calm, cool, and collective, but yet Dennis definitely knows how to have a good time! He enjoys playing with the other dogs, running around, going for walks, and just sitting outside doing absolutely nothing! He also enjoys getting lots of pets from his people, and curling up on a nice, cozy bed! Dennis really is a couch potato! He loves relaxing with his people and actually loves relaxing ON his people! He is a super cozy and comforting dog to curl up with! He is also quiet as a mouse! Being very social and friendly, and even outgoing, Dennis would be great for taking out and about!
Entering his shelter as a stray on 9/9/22, and being there until mid Dec. of 23, Dennis, he started off, and remained happy and content! Even with a big old scar going down his spine, nothing has seemed to bother him!
Dennis is heart worm positive but is currently being treated with the slow kill method. He has been given Proheart 12 and will just continue on that treatment path until his heart worm tests come back negative. This is an affordable treatment as opposed to the extremely expensive conventional method.
The shelter he came from is wonderful! Sadly though they have so many animals that need their help! Dennis needed to find rescue before for he had to be euthanized for space. This was the only way were able to get Dennis out and have his treatment started.
Dennis is 5 yrs. old and weighs 48 lbs.
Dennis has been neutered, microchipped, had his vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, leash and collar, ProHeart 12 (adults), and the mandatory CT HB 5368 exam.
BREED IDENTIFICATION:
Please understand that many rescue dogs are mixes of multiple breeds. Petfinder allows us to choose up to two breeds per dog. While the shelters and our rescue do our best in accurately identifying breeds, breed identification is not guaranteed. If there is a certain breed that you do not want, it is very important that you share this with our rescue when applying. When adopting a puppy, breed uncertainty plays a big part in the size/look of the dog as an adult. Please know that any puppy can be a wonderful dog, regardless of preconceived notions of certain breeds, but it is very important that the adopter has the dedication and patience to raise the puppy with boundaries, consistency, structure, & love. The more effort you give towards training & time you allow for exercise, your puppy will grow to be a HUGE source of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, TOTAL LOYALTY, HAPPINESS, COMFORT & COMPANIONSHIP!
ABOUT OUR RESCUE:
We are a small rescue run by volunteers & focused on finding the right match for both our dogs & for you. If you are interested in adopting through our rescue, you first will need to complete an adoption application & be approved as a potential adopter before meeting any of our pups. No need to be intimidated by our application as it allows us to get to know you & your lifestyle. Of course, the more you can share the better! Please also note, while a fenced yard is fantastic, it is not required by our rescue, however, it may be required for a certain dog occasionally. Once adoption applicants are approved to become potential adopters, we offer private appointments where you can meet one or several dogs at the discretion of the rescue. We offer a unique & pleasant experience focused on finding the perfect match. It is extremely important to us that everyone is treated with respect & that NO ONE IS LEFT HANGING. WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU WITHIN 2 TO 3 DAYS of application submission. If there is a dog you are eager to meet, please TEXT US DIRECTLY at 203-241-2351 so that we can check the status of your application and move it forward immediately. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you find your new best friend.
*All adult dogs can be cat tested by request.
