Parker's Story

Are you Parker’s person? <br/><br/>He needs a chance to prove what a sweet companion he is and no one seems interested. Why not? <br/><br/>He is a sweet guy. He needs a quiet and patient individual or family willing to take on a dog who has very little experience with being loved. <br/><br/>His time with people is usually one-on-one and at bedtime, when he quickly settles and goes to sleep. He likes to be engaged and involved. We have tried Parker with a variety of dog groups and he can become overstimulated. One-on-one, he is a dream.<br/><br/>Like other things in his life, we feel he would do well with a routine and slow introduction. He is a buddy dog in that he is really craving a human: A human who can focus on him and introduce him to the world in a gradual way. He is very smart and very affectionate. <br/><br/>Applicants must have a secure visible fence connected to an exit door of the house. Applicants will be screened, including a home visit. <br/><br/>If you would like to meet Parker, complete an application on our website dogwoodfarmsanctuary.com and then request an appointment. Thanks for your interest in Parker. We will continue to take applications until we find the right match.
