ADOPTED

Chaco is a 2-year-old Golden Retriever Cross. We think the *other* is a border collie. He is chipped, tested for heartworm and tick diseases and has had his shots.

We have no information about his *before* life but he is very amenable to whatever is happening. He is not a prince, LOL, more like a rural farmer’s boy who is delightful and not worldly.

He is a nice boy. we all like him.

Email kathleen@radiantrecovery.com if you would like to meet him.

Finn is an older Golden Retriever/Husky Cross. He was given to us by the owner’s family when the owner had to go into the hospital and could not care for him.

He is one of the most loving, funny dogs we have had in the last year. He has lost weight, is running around like a spring chicken, laughing and throwing things in the air. He loves to go walking and riding in the car. He loves his bed from Costco and acts like the Emperor when he lies on it. He also talks like a Husky and has a lot to say.

He reminds me when it is time for meds for the others, and when it is time for dinner. He tells me I could take him along in the car. He is spry and active now. He likes other dogs. We have no information about how he is with cats. He does have a high interest in bunnies, so my intuition is he might go after a cat.

He has had all his shots and is chipped and neutered.
I would consider Finn one of our *jewel* dogs and whoever gets him will be thrilled. If you are looking for a loving companion, this is your boy.

ADOPTED

Bella is a girl who came from TN. She was phobic about thunderstorms and they wanted to move her where there are not so many. We agreed to take her.

She is loving, funny and a real sweetheart. She wants to please. Needs to be with someone who can help her be calm with thunder. Has been spayed, chipped and has all her shots.

She remains edgy about thunderstorms but does fine if she is with someone. Really likes the company of other dogs. She needs to be in a home with calm dogs and quiet people.

This is a very dear and loving dog.

We have had way fewer dogs since start of the COVID quarantine. It is very strange and has been true for rescue all acoss the country. We speculate that people are keeping their dogs home with them. We used to get 4-5 dogs a month. We had 5 dogs all last year.

Several people have asked me why we don’t have more dogs like some of the other state rescues do. I have thought about this a lot. I think it is because we work really hard to get to know our people. So when a dog comes in, we are able to make a placement quickly. If you look at the dogs under adopted, you will see that we have placed many, many dogs. Actually, we have placed more than 900 dogs.

The people who stay in touch, who watch the website and who call regularly are the people who get dogs. If a dog comes up that you like, email right away. Remember, we must have your application on file in order to consider you for adoption. We will arrange a meeting if the dog sounds like a good match.

…remember, we place dogs based on temperament match to families. And there may be some variables that are not in the description…or you may call and think it doesn’t matter if it says the dog doesn’t like cats and you have a cat …Doesn’t like cats may mean the dog will eat your cat, so we won’t give you a *does not like cats* dog. Or if the dog is particularly rambunctious and you have young children, that will not be a good match.

We love working with you.
