Gene's Story

*** AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION, FOSTER, or FOSTER TO ADOPT *** Meet Gene! He is a brand-new graduate of our P.A.C.K. Program, a 9-week intensive program for routine obedience, agility, and handling training with a prison inmate trainer and he is ready to show off his new skills! His new abilities include 'sit', 'wave', 'shake' and more! New adopters should realize that PACK Program graduates will require regular, ongoing reinforcement of learned behaviors in order for them to become permanent. Gene is a sweet nervous boy. He was originally from a hoarding case, where he received minimal human interaction. Since he has been up at PACK, he has come a long way. He now seeks out human affection from time to time. He will always need a dog friend, as he does 1000 times better with a buddy. They help build his confidence. He is sensitive with body handling due to his past. For this reason, Gene cannot go to a home with small children. He is going to do best in a home with another canine and a calmer and quiet environment. He was too nervous when he first arrived to see how he reacted towards our cats. We do think he'll be scared of them and leave them alone though. Gene is good in his kennel and house trained too. He is now in a foster home and is just dying to meet his new family! Apply to meet him today!

Black Dog Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy

BDAR considers pet adoption to be a privilege and that good pet owners can demonstrate a history of responsible practices. Our basic requirements are as follows: Adopters must be at least 18 years of age Adopters’ current pets must be current on their rabies vaccination per local ordinances Adopters must be able to provide a current veterinary reference if they own other pets or have recently owned pets If the adopter rents, they must be able to provide a landlord reference stating that pets are allowed on the property Adopter cannot intend for the animal to be kept as an outdoor only pet, or for the primary mode of containment to be tethering Adopters must be a good match for the animal in question as determined by our adoption counselors Our adoption fees includes spay or neuter, current age appropriate vaccinations, microchip with lifetime registration, a free first vet exam, and 30 free days of pet health insurance. A note about our adoption fees: BDAR utilizes a variable pricing structure for all of its adoptable animals. Adoption fees are determined based on an animal's perceived desirability, age, training or medical investment, and the length of time they have been available for adoption. Some animals are priced higher than others. These animals' adoption fees provide a legacy gift for others in the program who may need additional resources in order to get the same chance in a forever home.
