Freesia's Story

Freesia is 2 years old and weighs 42lbs. She has been good with most of her canine foster mates both male and female, however, she doesn't care much for high puppy energy or in your face rude dogs. <br/><br/>She still occasionally has accidents, will go willingly into a crate, but isn't a fan. Isn't a fan of leash walking either, but is a Velcro dog and will stay right beside you, she just needs someone with time and patience, she'll catch on. She would do best in a home with someone who is retired, works from home, or comes home often. <br/><br/>She is a sweet, gentle, friendly dog, quiet most of the time, but will bark at deer. She has been around 5+ years old considerate children and is polite.

River Cities Bully Buddies's Adoption Policy

Please send inquires to rcbbrescue@gmail.com for an application. If your application is approved a volunteer will contact you to set up a home-based meet and greet with the dog you are interested in. Our goal is to make the best possible match so if all goes well we will then set up a home visit and ask that a two week trial period be given to determine if the dog is a good fit for your family. RCBB does not want anyone to feel pressured to keep a dog they don't have a good connection with. (The adoption fee minus $25 will be reimbursed during this 2-week trial period.) If you decided that the dog is a good fit, a contract will then be signed and finalized. (The process time can vary depending on volunteer availability) *We DO NOT adopt out unaltered dogs, every dog that is in our program is spayed/neutered, so please do not ask! *We will NOT adopt out any of our dogs to homes who have an invisible fence, this is a NON-NEGOTIABLE. *Applicant must have non-discriminatory home owners insurance and/or *Applicant must have approval from landlord if renting. *We adopt to INDOOR homes only. *You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt. *Dogs already in the home must be spayed and/or neutered if over 6 months old and up to date on vaccines. *We DO NOT adopt our "pit bull" dogs out in areas with Breed Discriminatory laws, including within the city limits of Huntington (restrictions) or Barboursville (restrictions), Ceredo (ban), Kenova (ban), Bluefield (ban), Dunbar (restrictions), Montgomery (restrictions), WV....Rome Township in Proctorville, OH (ban), Flatwoods, KY (restrictions).
