Topper's Story

If interested in a meet and greet you must fill out the adoption application!<br/><br/>This dog will not be available for adoption until spayed or neutered. Surgery is scheduled. <br/><br/>Intake: 1/10/26<br/>3.5 years old<br/>20 lbs<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $350<br/><br/>Neuter Scheduled <br/>Vaccinated<br/>Microchipped<br/>HW Negative and on Monthly Prevention<br/><br/>Topper is one of several dogs that recently arrived in rescue from a retiring breeder. While they have been cared for, their life has been very different from that of a typical household pet.<br/><br/>These dogs have lived primarily in kennel or pen environments and are not potty trained. They do not walk on a leash and will need to learn basic household routines from the beginning. Because of this, they are timid and shy around people but have very sweet and gentle personalities.<br/><br/>Breeder dogs are different from dogs that have lived in a home their entire lives. They require patience, consistency, and time to adjust. Progress may be slow at first, but with structure and kindness, they can continue to gain confidence and trust.<br/><br/>This dog will need help with house training, crate training, leash training, and general socialization. A calm and understanding home is essential. They don't understand basic household items such as mirrors, doorways, ceiling fans, televisions etc.<br/><br/><br/>***If you choose to adopt (before all vetting is complete) and use your own vet rather than our local Snip Clinic for these services, you do so at your own expense and it will not reduce the adoption fee. Adoption fees are NON NEGOTIABLE.<br/><br/>1.) All dogs are adopted to the best possible match and calling or emailing the rescue will not speed up the process or liken your chances of being chosen.<br/><br/>2.) You will be notified by adoption coordinator if your application is approved. Adoptions are set up by appointment only. We do not have “hours” of operation.<br/><br/>3.) If the dog is posted as Available on Petfinder, it is available but may have pending applications and meet and greets set up.<br/><br/>4.) If you are not ready to immediately meet the dog you are applying for, please do not apply- we are too busy for window shoppers! Every dog is available to be taken home with you at the time of the meet and greet.<br/><br/>5.) We recommend you bring a carrier with you to transport the dog home as some can get carsick. Adult dogs and most puppies over 6 months of age will require a slip lead.<br/><br/>6.) Adoption fees can be paid with Cash, Check, Venmo, PayPal and credit Card.<br/><br/>Screven County Spay & Neuter Corp.<br/>SYLVANIA, GA
