VT Dog Rescue

VT Dog Rescue is a non-profit canine rescue focused on saving the Underdog. The sweet dogs who are passed over day after day simply because they are not perfect. Who is an underdog?- older dogs who are wise and love to snuggle- tri-pawed dogs who are happily enjoying life with 3 legs- shy dogs who need a little extra love to help them build confidence - dogs who may limp or have a physical limitation that humans see as a flaw, but they accept with dignity - dogs who are missing an eye and have adapted to navigate their world The Underdogs have, against all odds, retained their ability to be loyal and trusting companions who love us unconditionally. We believe the Underdogs, just like other shelter dogs, deserve to be rescued and placed in loving, responsible homes where they can shine.

Pemi is a practiced mountain bike and ski partner. He's a handsome dog and sweet tempered. A nice balance of energy - he cuddles, but also likes to play fast and hard. Pemi is an excellent adventure partner. He enjoys playing with other dogs, especially when both are off leash in a secure, fenced in area. Pemi enjoys riding in the car and does well on boats. His favorite is stand-up paddle boarding, where he can jump in and out of the water. He’s a great swimmer. Pemi is housebroken, crate trained and neutered.
