In the shelter’s words
Meet Dutton! Dutton could run a masterclass on How To Be A Good Dog. He LOVES other dogs, adores children — he seriously lights up with kids — and waits by the door when it's time to potty outside. He's been fostered with three kids between ages 5 and 7 and one temperamental female dog, and he handles it all like a champ. Dutton isn't a fan of the crate yet, but he's learning it's a safe space. He sleeps through the night on his own dog bed, doesn't show any signs of resource guarding, and is a total snuggler. He's still building confidence and working on recall. He'll need a canine sibling in his new home and at least a 5 ft fenced yard. The good stuff about this good boy: ~2 years + 70 lbs Loves dogs (requires a K9 sibling) Obsessed with kids Housetrained Crate training in progress Sleeps through the night Total snuggler Needs a 5 ft+ fenced yard If you are interested, complete the Adoption Application on our website at www.NeedyPaws.org and we will contact you.

Adopters will complete an adoption application which is sent to the dog's foster parent. Their personal and veterinarian references will be checked, a home visit conducted, and then the foster parent will set up a meeting where the adopters will meet the dog. If the adoption is approved, the adopter will then complete an Adoption Contract and the dog is theirs! Adoption fees are $275 for most dogs.
