Ernie's Story
Meet Ernie! Named after the classic Sesame Street duo, this sweet boy is an absolute genius. We think he is around 9 weeks old, and though he started out as a stray, he is already proving to be incredibly smart and loyal. <br/><br/>Ernie is a fast learner who already knows how to sit on command, comes when called, and understands the word no. He is making great progress with his house training and already understands that he needs to go potty outside. He also loves food, so this should make any additional training a breeze! <br/><br/>He has a great balance to his personality—he is independent enough to entertain himself, but still super playful and affectionate when it's time to hang out. He is good with kids and gets along great with other dogs.<br/><br/>Beyond his intelligence, Ernie has a heart of gold. He is incredibly intuitive and deeply in tune with his foster mom's feelings. If she's having a tough day, Ernie is right there to offer comfort. He is an overall wonderful, emotionally intelligent puppy who is going to make someone the companion of a lifetime.<br/><br/>We expect him to grow into a big, sturdy companion, likely reaching at least 60 pounds when he is full-grown. If you are looking for a clever, sweet pup who is already well on his way to being the perfect pet, Ernie is ready to join your family.<br/> <br/>If you are interested in adopting there is an application below! This is the first step. We do not schedule meet and greets without an approved application.<br/><br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PDAR/Dog<br/><br/><br/>98% of our adoptables come from out of state. There are higher fees associated as we have to pay to have the animals transported. We are a non-profit rescue. Any access revenue made is used to care for animals with additional medical expenditures that would otherwise result in adoptable dogs having to be left behind and euthanized.<br/><br/>The adoption fee for this dog is $550 which helps with the cost of routine vet care. This fee DOES NOT INCLUDE spay/neuter. You will be required to sign a contract legally obligating you to have the animal altered. A $100.00 will be returned to the adopter once the animal has been sterilized. We will need proof of sterilization from the vet in order to receive the $100.
