Echo's Story

Echo - neutered senior male 55 pounds 24 inches at the shoulder Approx 8 years old Well... apparently I'm on the internet now. I've been told this is how you find a nice family these days, so here we are. Im an older fellow with a permanently toothless smile and a deep appreciation for dinner, naps, leisurely strolls, and anyone willing to tell me Im handsome. I wasnt always this comfortable. There was a time when every meal hurt. Thankfully, some wonderful people changed that, and Ive been making up for lost time ever since. I make it my duty to greet every new person I meet. As far as Im concerned, were just friends who havent met yet. Once Ive introduced myself and collected a respectable amount of attention, Im happy to supervise your day from a cozy spot nearby. I dont need to be the center of attention (all the time). I just like being close to my people. I enjoy slow walks because I have important things to inspect: mailboxes, trees, interesting smells. Every so often, Ill stop for a little grass. Not to eat it, just to enjoy the way it feels on my gums. At my age, you dont question the little things that make you happy. I dont expect you to understand. I only ask that you respect my grass time. My left hip reminds me Im not a young man anymore, so Id appreciate a family wholl help keep me limber with gentle exercise, a joint supplement, and the occasional massage at home. I still love getting out, dont get me wrong! I just dont see the point in rushing when theres so much out there to sniff. I have no shame about asking for attention. If youre sitting down, Ill likely wander over to see if your hands are available. Ill let you know Ive arrived by gently nudging your hand. If youre looking for a marathon partner, Ill have to pass. But if youre looking for a loyal companion who believes life is best enjoyed with good food, kind people, cozy naps, and simply being together, I think wed make a pretty good team. Now, if youll excuse me, I believe its just about time for another nap. Adoption fee is $200. He is neutered, microchipped, dewormed and current on vaccines.

New Hope Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

New Hope Dog Rescue is a registered non-profit and foster-based organization that has been rescuing and rehoming dogs in need since 2003. To provide a safe, foster-based environment for neglected and unwanted dogs, while promoting the human animal bond through education and community outreach. All of the dogs who join our program are partnered with loving and dedicated foster parents who open their homes to these animals in need. Foster families also help provide the care the dogs require until they can be matched with adoptive, permanent homes. Every dog receives proper medical care while with New Hope. This will range from the basics (vaccinations, deworming, microchip, spay/neuter), while others will require more extensive care (anything from dental work, to corrective surgery, to treatment of skin conditions). We rely on donations and support from the community to allow us to cover these medical expenses and to carry out and continue our mission. We are always in need of adopters, foster homes, donors and volunteers. To learn more, visit our website at www.newhoperescue.org Since the organization was founded, New Hope has found loving homes for over 4000 dogs! That is 4337 dogs given a better chance at life, 40337 dogs that had no hope before that were given a new hope and a new chance. In the first year (2003) 29 dogs were adopted into loving homes, now we average 250 dogs a year. This would not be possible without the amazing support of our community and loving families that open their hearts and homes to a dog in need. Whether it is fostering, volunteering, adopting, donating- it makes a world of difference for these dogs and thank you to everyone that has helped make our first 20 years as successful as it has been. Why adopt from New Hope? All of our dogs are health-checked by a veterinarian, and are up to date on needed vaccinations All dogs are micro chipped- a permanent identification for your dog Dogs over 5 months old are spayed/neutered If something unforeseen happens and you cannot keep your dog, New Hope will take the dog back into our foster care program- we will always be here for our adopted dogs. Our dogs live in home environments as a member of the family, which gives us a great sense of what they will be like in your home as well! This also helps ensure that they are well socialized. Most importantly, you save a life! Why foster for New Hope? New Hope provides all the needed supplies to foster including, but not limited to; food, leash, collar, crate, toys and bowls. Training support, obedience classes and daycare hours are also provided. On top of all this any medical care that is required, vaccinations, micro chipping, spay/neuters and anything else that the dog needs well in New Hope’s care is covered! If you have a vacation coming up, we can accommodate that too. What we ask of you is to provide a safe, loving and warm home for a dog in need of a temporary place to stay while awaiting adoption. Most importantly, you save a life! Why donate to New Hope? At any given time New Hope has 50-60, sometimes as many as 100 foster dogs in our care. As you can imagine vet care for this amount of dogs is very expensive. Your donations help to pay for routine vet care such as needed vaccinations and spay/neuter, but they also help with special cases that need diagnostics, surgery and potentially rehab. Check out our Guardians of Hope page at http://www.newhoperescue.org/guardians-of-hopeto see the current list of dogs in need of a little extra love and attention.
