Skeeter's Story

Hello there. My name is Skeeter, and I'm an old soul in a young dog's body. Don't let the vets fool you with numbers, I've got the calm wisdom, soft eyes, and heartfelt loyalty of a dog who has already figured out what matters most in life: my people.<br/><br/>Im not flashy. I dont need chaos or constant entertainment. What I do need is connection. I bond deeply with my person (or people). I want to be where you are: tagging along on low-key adventures, curled up at your feet, snoozing at the end of your bed, or pressed against you on a cold afternoon. Im not needy... I just believe life is better together.<br/><br/>Because of how strongly I bond, Im looking for a very specific kind of home:<br/><br/>* A retired person or couple, or someone who is home most of the time<br/>* Someone who enjoys companionship and wouldn't mind a shadow <br/>* A home where I can be the only dog (Ive decided I prefer humans over sharing my space with other pups)<br/><br/>I am about 30lb and roughly 5 years old. I am house broken but not thrilled with a crate. <br/><br/>If youre the kind of person who wants a loyal sidekick, a quiet companion, and a dog who will love you with his whole heart, I might just be your guy.<br/><br/>I am patiently waiting at Saving Grace Rescue LBK. www.savinggracelbk.org

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.**
