Tommy's Story

Hi, I’m Tommy!<br/>I’m a happy, easygoing four-year-old pittie who just wants to be part of someone’s everyday life. When you first meet me, I’ll probably wiggle my whole body because I’m genuinely excited to say hello. After that, my perfect day is simple: a little adventure, a lot of love, and being near my person.<br/><br/>My absolute favorite thing in the world is a sniff walk on my retractable leash. Let me explore a bit, follow my nose, check out the neighborhood… then I’m ready to head home, curl up on the couch, and snooze next to you. I’m a toy guy, too — give me something plush or squeaky and I’m a happy boy. Mostly, I just want to hang out and be included. That’s where I shine.<br/><br/>I like people of all kinds, and with slow, proper introductions I can be friends with dogs and even cats. I’m social, gentle, and goofy — the kind of dog who makes you smile without even trying.<br/><br/>I’ve also been practicing some “grown-up dog” skills. My off-leash recall is getting better every day, and I’m brushing up on basic manners. I’m crate trained, too — I might whine a bit at first, but I settle down with a routine and a calm voice. Baths and nail trims? They’re not my favorite… but I’ll tolerate the spa treatment if it means extra cuddle time afterward.<br/><br/>I’m looking for someone who enjoys a little adventure but also appreciates a good couch buddy. Someone kind, patient, and ready to keep growing with me. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s happy to explore the world and nap through a movie with you, I’d really like to meet you.

The Red Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy
We have an extensive adoption application for each dog. Each application must be filled out entirely. We reserve the right to decline your interest in an adoptable dog at any point. We place each dog in a home where the adopter is already living the lifestyle the dog needs. We do a 1 on 1 meet and greet first. Next we do an in adopters home meet and greet to evaluate how the dog will do in their potential home, and routine. We ensure they have appropriate space etc. We then have adoptions pending on sleepover or trial period going well with the adopter to ensure its a good fit and nobody is rushed or pressured.

Our Mission
“Rescued Right the First Time." At The Red Dog Rescue, we go beyond rescue. Our mission is to prepare every dog for a successful, permanent home through intentional training and careful matching. Because when dogs are set up for success, they don't come back—they stay home, where they belong.
