Meet Ike! This handsome and energetic 2-year-old German Shepherd has a heart of gold and a zest for life. Rescued from the streets, Ike has blossomed into a stunning pup with a coat that gleams with health and vitality, thanks to some tender care and attention. He's mastered the art of crate and potty training and is quite the clever fellow, knowing a few commands already. Ike's playful nature shines through during playtime, where he delights in chasing his toys and engaging in fun activities. His love for baths has transformed him into a fresh-smelling companion who is always ready for cuddles on the couch. Ike's affectionate demeanor extends to children, making him a wonderful family companion. Although he prefers to be the sole pet in the household, Ike's protective instincts add a layer of security, as he diligently alerts you to any potential visitors with his watchful bark. Everyone who meets him falls in love with his sweet nature and puppy-like energy. With a little extra exercise and training, Ike's potential shines even brighter, as evidenced by a recent pet behavior assessment. With the right guidance and care, Ike is ready to become the loyal and loving companion you've been searching for. Adoption fee is $250.
Adoption Process
Applicants must fill out an application at www.adoptapitrescue.org/apply. We screen all applications, with approved applicants passing a vet and landlord check. All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered and up to date on all vaccinations and on year-round heartworm preventative. Non-homeowners must have permission from their landlord to have a dog. Once approved, we schedule a home visit, where an adoption representative takes the dog to the adopter's home to see if the dog is a good fit for the family and other pets, as well as verify the home is a safe environment for the dog. If everyone feels the dog is a good fit, a contract is signed, adoption fee is paid, and the family takes possession of the dog, unless other arrangements are made. Typical adoption fees are $175 for adult dogs and $200 for puppies. We reserve the right to charge different fees for "designer" breeds. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested, and on heartworm preventative at the time of adoption. All dogs have been examined by our veterinarian and given a clean bill of health at the time of adoption.
