Dewey – ADOPTED!!

Posted Sep 22, 2013 at 7:55 pm in Latest News

ADOPTED!!    This little guy is full of personality!  His name should have been “Happy, happy, happy!” because he is just that.  Dewey was found as a stray by a good Samaritan in Stuttgart, Arkansas.  He was taken to their home and went from 16 pounds to a healthy 19 pounds with proper care.  ResQ was asked to take him and find him a good home when a foster spot opened up, so Dewey is hanging out in Arkansas until his new home can be found.  Dewey is only about 2 years old, and weighs 19 pounds.  He is super playful, super friendly, and just a super dog.  He is crate trained, and doing very well with his house training.  He learned the doggie door the first day, and has been enjoying a big back yard in which to run and play.  Dewey is very affectionate and just melts into your lap with complete glee when you show him affection.  He sleeps in his crate without complaint, and wants to please his people.  We think Dewey would be an excellent companion for a family with children, as he has not shown one ounce of aggression when tested.  He has not been tested with cats, but that could probably be arranged.  He is a bit “soft” when it comes to loud noises, and he would rather stay with you than investigate with the more confident dogs.  Dewey is such a nice boy, and deserves a family of his own.  If you are interested in Dewey, his foster mom would be happy to fill you in on this happy boy.  The perfect home for Dewey would be one with a fenced-in backyard, and some kids to throw a ball for him.  This happy boy LOVES to retrieve tennis balls.  He carries one around with him, just hoping for someone to toss it for him, then he will bring it back and place it in your hand.   For more photos, check out his album:

    Dewey would go great with Karma, we call her Happy Feet because how she dances when she is Happy. When will he be ready to go home? If I do not take him I will have to find him a home close by so that Karma could have another rattie to play with.

    Hi, Alma! Dewey is a play buddy for sure. All he lacks is his microchip – if you are interested, please apply? If you need to know more about him, you know my email address – cora4rats@suddenlink.net. He and Karma would have some super-sonic rat runs, for sure.
