Skadi's Story

I was named after Skadi, a fierce giantess, but my mom learned quickly that it was a silly name for me. While I very much resemble a giant, I couldn’t be less fierce. I am very gentle. I was born around 12/15/23 and I am an Anatolian Shepherd, 95 pounds, bust still have some filling out to do. Expect me to be 110-120 pounds when I am at my healthiest. I have happily retired as a guardian dog. I am now a couch potato my mom says. <br/><br/>I was rescued from a hoarding situation where I was feeding 2-3 litters of puppies. I was very thin and hungry. I live with lots of other dogs of all sizes and do very well with them all. I am a little on the shy side and just learning to trust my humans. As soon as I know they aren’t going to hurt me, I want them to pet me forever. <br/><br/>I am not a very active dog. I love hanging out all day on my dog bed. I do not need to be kenneled as I am a very good girl and do not get into things that I’m not supposed to. I am just learning how to walk on a leash. I am not loving car rides much. I’ve been around children of all ages from infants up to 80. I would do best in a quiet household with humans that just want to shower me with pets and love. <br/><br/>If you have room in your house and heart for a gentle giant, pick me!

The Barking Lot Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy
You'll start by filling out the adoption application below. Once you've completed the adoption application a Barking Lot Attendant will be in touch to go over the next steps. Every dog and puppy that comes through The Barking Lot Dog Rescue will be "vetted" before they leave to their forever home. Being "vetted" not only means a veterinarian has seen them to ensure they're healthy; it also means they have been spayed/neutered, received at least one injection of DAPP (puppies under 6 months require 3 dosages - remaining vaccines will be scheduled at time of adoption if not already given), bordetella and rabies vaccine (required by law) and microchip. They have also been socialized in a home setting with people and other animals (varies per dog, please see their kennel card for more information).
