Adopting A Shelter Dog

These dogs come without background histories/ past medical information. We present these dogs as we have observed in relationship to age, size, breed, behavior, housebreaking, crate training, good with children, cats, dogs, and strangers. Dogs may present themselves differently in different environments, therefore The Dog Spot Rescue, their agents, volunteers, can not guarantee behavior, age, size expectations, breed, house Training, destructive behavior tendencies, and/or medical issues. All dogs from shelters have been subjected to pathogens from the shelter level which can materialize into disease in the future.  Each adopter must observe for themselves pre-adoption and make decisions for themselves the suitability of said dog and their tolerance levels for transitional time when adopting a shelter dog.  We ask that each adopter take their time when making the choice to bring home a rescued dog.

Penelope is a perfect family dog! She is a purebred boxer, came to us with 10 day old pups who have since been adopted. It is very obvious that she has been used for breeding probably her whole life.

Penelope is sweet, gentle, quiet, and easy going. She is a great house dog and loves cuddling with her person on the couch. She is so wonderful with children of all ages and will let kids climb all over her.

She is very playful when instigated and plays like a boxer. She likes to grab at your legs with her front paws. She likes toys and balls. She loves to run with her person.

She is perfect with other dogs, could care less about cats. A great family dog. Quiet and mellow in the house.

The adoption fee for Penelope is $350 and pays for her spay/rabies/worming/shots/care

She is located and can be met in Lodi, Ca.

Please Note: Shelter/rescue dogs have been exposed to many pathogens such as kennel cough, parasites, diseases and conditions some of which may not have been discovered prior to adoption. Any dog that shows symptoms here at TDS are routinely identified, taken for tests and treatment. Our vet bills can exceed $10,000 a month. However, without symptoms, we may miss a disease, or pre-existing condition or parasite. Consider carefully if you have the tolerance for these possibilities. We consider, you, the adopters, the last leg of the rescue process.
