Jackson 1 yr old neutered male - Salt Lake City, UT

Fee: $250

This handsome young boy had a rough start in life, but is doing great now!

Jackson was rescued recently from a small shelter. He had been turned in there by his owner, who said "he'd just gotten mean". When in his kennel, Jackson was cage protective, however, as soon as he was removed from his run, he could be handed to anyone, and quickly became friendly. Jackson has been in a terrific fosterhome for a few weeks now, and here is what his fostermom says about him:

"He definitely needs a person who is knowledgeable about dogs in general and Mals in particular. He obviously had little to no socialization and was mistreated. However, in the short time I have had him; he has made HUGE strides forward. His first week with me, he did growl/snap at strangers in warning when he felt trapped, but was not aggressive. Now, when introduced to a new person, he takes a few minutes to decide they are OK, then he is absolutely fine with them, friendly and loving. He remembers people he has met and liked in the past. He has NEVER offered a growl or snap to me from the moment I brought him home. He has a sound temperament, and is rapidly learning to trust. He is willing to approach people and check them out. Some people (especially people who have Mals… ) he takes to instantly and will climb into their laps and give kisses."

Jackson is small and athletic, and would make a terrific agility or obed. dog. He also has great balldrive and hunts well, so could possibly work in detection, SAR etc. He is good with other dogs (plays rough though), and has not yet eaten the cat! He is neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations.

Mick 6-7 yr old neutered male - Davis, CA

Fee: $100

This boy is Mr. Personality, and will captivate you with his smile!

When we first heard about Mick, he was in a Los Angeles shelter, in bad physical shape. He had come in looking like he might not make it. They first thought he might have eaten something poisonous, but later decided he had probably been hit by a car. He had no broken bones or obvious scrapes, so it was not easy to tell. The shelter took him to a private vet, and in a few days he was a different dog! He did come down with kennel cough, and we had to board him at a vet hospital for about 3 weeks.

Since then he has been in a fabulous fosterhome! He had little or no training, and has been learning house manners and basic obedience. Here is what his fostermom says about him: "Mick is a wonderful, athletic and agile boy. He is truly a diamond in the rough. He responds very well to clicker training, with food, praise and affection as rewards. He likes to use his brain. He can get pretty rambunctious, and doesn't always watch where he is going when running full speed! Did I say he is wonderful? Well it deserves saying again!".

Mick gets along well with other dogs...girls more so than boys. We feel he will do best in a home without cats, small dogs or young children. He is strong, and would love a home with an athletic person who exercises regularly. Mick is young for his age (which we don't really know!), and is a good candidate for various performance sports such as agility, obedience, tracking, etc.

Mick is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on his vaccinations, and parasite-free.
