Location:

Canton, CT

Description:

Guinness may be named after a bitter beer, but he's a very sweet boy! He is a 3 year 3 month old labrador/terrier mix and weighs 32 pounds. He is a bit shy and is looking for a family that has the patience and love to bring him out of his shell.Guinness has a medium level of energy. He enjoys adults, children aged 12 and above, and even cats. Socialization is the key for Guinness to gain his footing in new environments and of course all exposure needs to be done slowly so he can adjust on his own terms. This smart boy is fully house trained and crate trained. His leash training is in progress, but with consistency and patience, he will become a pro at this skill, also.The perfect owner for Guinness is someone who will provide daily physical and mental exercise, along with plenty of opportunities for socialization with people, and slow introductions to other dogs. This sweet boy would also like a lot of love. Guinness’ adoption fee is $500. This includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transport fees.To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today.

If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.April 13, 2024, 7:57 amAdoption processInterested adopters are asked to complete an application to begin the adoption process. This valuable document helps us insure that we are finding the perfect match for both the dog and the family members. If your application looks like a good fit, you will be contacted by phone for an interview. This is an opportunity to learn more about the home life you offer and the known temperament and energy level of the dog that is available for adoption. In some cases we may find that a different adoptable dog may be more suitable for your lifestyle and would be brought to your attention. Next, you will speak with the previous foster families to learn more about the day to day needs and behavior of the dog as an extra measure to find the perfect match. In addition, your veterinarian will be contacted to confirm your dedication to the health and well being of your previous or current pets.Finally DSR reserves the right to do a home inspection prior to the adoption approval. While this may seem like a lengthy process it actually may only take a week or two. As a result you should only begin the adoption process when you are ready to welcome a dog into your home.DSR makes every effort to insure our dogs are healthy, happy, and well cared for by our loving volunteers as they wait for their forever homes. All dogs are up to date on all vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and receive a health certificate before being transported. Our adoption fee is $450 and every penny goes towards the rescue of dogs in need.Shelter locationDSR's facility is located in Bloomfield, CT and is available by appointment only. We host adoption events every other week in the greater Hartford area. These are wonderful opportunities to meet all of our amazing adoptable dogs. Check out our Facebook page for the most up to date listing of upcoming events. Otherwise, dogs can be seen by appointment after completing the DSR application. Arrangements are made by the screening volunteer and coordinated with the foster family.
