Rhino's Story

Rhino came to Saving Grace in March 2021. He was seized for neglect. His owners left him chained up outside in the snow and single digit weather. He's an old man and missing most of his front teeth. Rhino is kind of like that grumpy neighbor that loves his grandkids but yells GET OFF MY LAWN to everyone else. He loves people but isn't willing to share his person with any other pets. He walks great on a leash but he'll need a long nap after a stroll around the park. He has a deep gruff bark like maybe he was a smoker in his youth. The name Rhino fits his slow-moving gray body. If you're looking for a hiking partner, Rhino is not your guy. If you need a friend that doesn't judge your Netflix binging, this snoring senior is the dog for you. Contact us if you are interested in meeting Rhino.

Saving Grace Rescue LBK's Adoption Policy
Our adoption fee is $225 (locally). This fee goes toward the cost of our vetting expenses for the dog, which includes the dog being spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. We require an application and home visit for adoption of one of our dogs. We want to ensure our dogs are placed in forever homes and are not in a situation that would be unsafe for the dog or perpetuate the misconceptions surrounding Pit Bulls. We prefer that adopters be at least 21 years old, but we will consider applicants under 21 on a case by case basis - so please still fill out an application. Please keep in mind that we know our dogs well; behavior, temperament, special needs, etc. Any decisions we make are in trying to do what's best for our dogs and the homes that we adopt them into. **If you are adopting out of state and we are sending a dog for adoption through our partner, Project Freedom Ride, the adoption fee is $500 which covers all vetting requirements and transport costs.**
