***FOSTER NEEDED***

Murphy is a Saint Bernard Mastiff mix who is very much the definition of a gentle giant.

Murphy is 3 years old, neutered, and up to date on all vaccines.

Does well around young kids, dogs, and cats. He is house trained, but murphy has to have water monitoring or he will drink too much and have an accident (happened after him being prescribed steroids for an injury).He isnt an escape artist.

I am hoping for care for 2 months, as that is longer than what I hope, but is for worse case scenario.

The dog on the right is Murphy’s buddy & not in need of fostering.

Happy update!
Cooper was reunited with his family yesterday!
While this usually doesn't happen, it is with a heavy heart we have to announce that Cooper has been abandoned in our care.
Cooper needs to find a forever home. He is 10 years old, UTD on vaccines and neutered.
At his age, he still has a lot of energy, he loves walks, snuggles and FOOD. Yes, he has some pounds to lose, and a lot of love to give.
Please share!

***FOSTER NEEDED***
SAFE is working on getting him vaccines & I am currently unsure if the owner is willing to have him neutered while in our care but I will update the post when/if that changes- BL

Type of animal/breed? This helps us understand size and compatibility?

He's Black Lab, Greyhound and Gladiator pit.

If there are multiple animals, can they be separated?

He's already separated from his mom, our other dog, at the moment so he's a little sad as it is, but I don't think he will any problems leaving Arayah. (my cat)

Age?

He's almost 3.5

S*x?

Male

Name?

Albert

Crate trained and or housebroken?

Housebroken yes, he will whine in a kennel, he doesn't like to be alone.

Good with other animals? Dogs and cats? Farm animals?

He's very playful, he doesn't get along with other male dogs though. Cats he will chase unless it's our cat. Never been around farm animals.

Good with kids/people in general?

People yes, he's a HUGE LOVE BUG, kids make him nervous at first cause they're noisy but he calms down eventually.

Spay or neutered?

No. We are striving to make spay and neuter a requirement for our program. When we have more funds it will be a requirement. We offer the option for now and we have someone willing to pay for 2 alterations for our clients!

Up to date with vaccinations?

He's only ever had one set of shots, I believe they were his first (puppy) shots.

Is the animal an escape artist needing an extra secure environment?

Yes, and no. If there is a hole in the fence he gets curious but he doesn't go far.

January 15-18.
