PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.
Winston! What a sweet heart! Winston came into rescue after being pulled from a municipal shelter. We are thankful that one of our heroes opened their home to foster him. Winston has only been with us for a little over a week so we are still getting to know him. So far, what we've learned is that he is very kind. He is gentle. He is quiet. He is crate trained and we believe house trained. He is not destructive. He loves to climb into your lap and just sit with you. When you stop petting him, he gently paws at your hand as if to ask for more pets. He loves to be talked to softly and responds very well to affection. He weighs 32lbs. He gets along very well with other calm dogs but does not like dogs jumping on him with puppy like energy. He gets along very well with all the dogs in his foster home and he seems to enjoy their company, except the young puppy who gets on his nerves. Even though he's not crazy about her puppy energy, he's still not aggressive to her, he just tries to stay away from her. We think his ideal home would be a calm household with older kids or no kids. Judging by his interactions with the puppy, we don't feel that he would enjoy very young kids who tend to be more "in your face." But we are willing to consider kids on case by case basis. Winston is more of a cuddler than a player. He hasn't shown much interest in toys, but that could change as he gets more comfortable. Winston has the potential to be an incredibly wonderful addition to a family. He has so much love to give. We believe he is about 3-4 years old. We are not sure of his breed- he has the appearance and coat texture of a Westie, but he is larger than a Westie at 32lbs. We are so happy to be part of his journey and thankful to have the opportunity to help him find a family of his own. Winston is located in Arkansas. He can be transported to the northeast. Adopter will need to make arrangements to meet the transporter on a Friday, at one of the following locations/times: To apply to adopt: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 More about WinstonGood with Dogs Our typical adoption fee for puppies younger than 6 months old is $400, and for older puppies and adults, the usual fee is $350.
