Charlie: We have been over two weeks getting this dog flown to Anchorage. He was originally flown from Kaktovik to Barrow, to the Vet there. Kaktovik is on the northern border of the Yukon Territory and Alaska. Barrow is on the North Slope of Alaska. Details we received were a little sketchy, but he is a neutered male. He was all dirty and matted, so the Vet in Barrow cleaned him up and shaved all his hair. He is Long haired, even though he doesn’t look like it right now. He weighs 120 pounds. He is between 2 and 4 years old, and has had no obedience training. He has been an outside dog. He is very gentle and laid back, and he rolled over and let them shave his belly without a whimper. He also let me cut his nails without any problem. Turns out he *is* housetrained. He has a wonderful saintly temperament, and gets along with our dogs, family, and grandkids very well. The dogs all slept together last night, without a peep. He is not leash trained, but is a willing learner and very eager to please. This rescue personifies the biggest problem we have in Alaska with getting dogs rescued, and that is transportation. Without many roads in a state 2-1/2 times larger than Texas, and the ones we have are usually dirt trails, this boy had to fly a long ways to get here. In looking at your map, you will not see many drivable roads north of Fairbanks. His front legs are a little crooked, and he has double dew claws. His face is a bit like a bull dog, but all in all, he is one beautiful boy and a joy to have in the house! 12/31/2004
MADDIE: Along with her litter-sister, Kyra, 14-month-old smoothcoat Maddie came into Rescue when her family hit a financial bump in the road. She’s spayed, housetrained, and vaccinated, and will be HW-tested shortly. Currently at that gawky adolescent stage, Maddie could use an extra few pounds to fill out. She’s good with most other dogs and is playful with cats. She’s been with children as young as 18 months and is quite the cuddle-bug. Maddie would like a yard with a six-foot fence. Ideally we would like to try to place the sisters together. 12/30/2004
Sir Lancelot: is an older dog, possibly 4 to 6 years of age. He has perfect manners and is an absolute gentleman on lead, walking at heel without needing to be told. Like Punkin, Lance is looking for a nice home to live out his days, and nice children would be the center of his life. 12/29/2004
Emily: is a 2yo spayed female rough coat. She is very sweet and a bit shy. She is very thin and needs someone to love her and help her get her weight and confidence back up. 12/28/2004
Sebastian: Hi I am a 7 month old altered male. I am a rough coat who is approx 80 lbs. I am very lovable and get along well with others. I was dumped at a store very malnourished and basically starving. Because of this I have some food issues with other dogs. We believe this behavior can be trained out with the right home. Sebastian gets along well with older children- we would prefer to place him in a family with children over 6, no toddlers please. He is all pup and loves to play. He is already housebroken and is very well mannered in the house. Would you be the right home for me? Contact Trina Souza 757-488-5772 12/23/2004
Tonka: What a great boy this is!!! Tonka is a 3 year old smooth coat. He is great with other dogs, cats, and children. He is on the XL size but doesn’t realize he is big. He is just a BIG baby. He loves to walk himself on a leash and kiss on you all day. He is just a BIG lover! 12/20/2004
Dolly: This beautiful 2 year old came to us after her owners’ fell on hard times and could no longer care for her. She is great with children, other dogs, and cats. She is a BIG sweetheart that loves a good belly rub and yummy treats. Won’t you give her a second chance? 12/20/2004
CLYDE: is a 7 month old shorthair male pup. As a puppy, Clyde is still learning and will need ongoing training and patience! He is a bit more laid back and as you can see, he loves posing for pictures. He listens well and he is learning some basic commands. Clyde LOVES the pool (he catches splashes with his mouth). He is very sweet and you can just fall in love with his face. He knows to leave the cats alone. Good with other dogs. He is catching on quickly to housetraining and is good with kids! Clyde came in with his sister, Bonnie and they are bonded with each other. They will only be adopted out together. 12/20/2004
Ottis: is a 16 month old neutered male that gets along with dogs and cats. His owners have moved and can no longer keep him. Ottis is very well behaved. He loves being groomed and amusing himself with his basket of toys. 12/20/2004
Hank: is a 1.5 yo neutered male rough coat. He’s very friendly and all puppy. His owner decided to move and forgot to pack the dog. 12/20/2004
Oscar: is playful and craves attention with all his might. he loves to eat. he is a splash coat two year old. he is a beautiful dog with truckloads of energy. 12/20/2004
C.J: is a 2 1/2 year old spay female. She is fine boned and small for a saint bernard. She only weighs 80 pounds but is at a good weight for her size. She enjoys cars rides and long walks. C.J. gets along well with other dogs but is not good with cats. She definitely is a kissy face type of gal that wags her whole body with excitement. Due to her high energy she may not be good with young children as she could unintentionally hurt them by knocking them down. She seems to be very healthy other than the fact that her left eye does not tear. She will need to have medicine put into her eye for the rest of her life. The cost would be about $43.00 every two months. 12/20/2004
KYRA: Littermate to Maddie, Kyra is 14 months old, smoothcoat, spayed, housetrained, and vaccinated. Like her sister, she will be HW-tested shortly. Though she is the bigger of the two girls, Kyra, too, could stand to gain a few pounds. Kyra appears to be the “pushier” sister. She gets along with submissive dogs and is reported to be quite curious about cats. She was raised with children though we’d prefer older children as Kyra has lots of enthusiasm. She and Maddie would benefit from some obedience work as they both pull on leash and aren’t always consistent on commands. A fenced yard is essential and preference will be given to the applicant who would like to adopt both Kyra and Maddie. 12/18/2004
Daisy: 2 1/2 year old rough coated female. Very sweet. Turned into rescue because she was to big for toddlers. Needs obedience training. She is great with other dogs and older kids who like to play. Loves to get belly rubs and be brushed. Definitely thinks she is a lap dog. Likes to play chase with toys. 12/18/2004
Princess: What a lover this 7 year old smooth coat beauty is!! Princess came to us after her owners’ fell on hard times and could no longer care for her. She is good with children, other dogs, and cats. She is quite spunky for her age, out playing even the youngest ones! She is such a nice girl and would love to find a forever home to live out her “golden years”. 12/16/2004

He is great with other dogs, cats, and children. He loves belly rubs and car rides. He loves to romp and play. If you are looking for the love of your life, Duke may be your man! 12/6/2004
CHOPPER: This handsome three-year-old roughcoat has had a tough life. An owner-surrender, Chopper came into Rescue badly in need of veterinary care. We vaccinated him, dewormed him, and treated his infected ears. He had hot spots, which are not uncommon in Saints. We cured them. He needed eye surgery. We did it. He tested positive for heartworm. We treated that, too. He was matted and dirty. We had him groomed. Now he’s ready to choose a family. He gets along with submissive dogs. According to his previous owner he also plays well with cats (though we don’t currently have a “test cat” on the premises to confirm that). He’s also friendly with children but we would recommend placement with a family whose kids are 10 or over as Chopper is best described as a bull in a china shop. A fenced yard is a must. The successful applicant will have large or giant breed experience and will commit to completing a formal obedience course with the big lug. 12/6/2004
MICKEY: His name is officially Miracle but we’re calling him Mickey. He’s a littermate to Kallie and is 11 months old. He is vaccinated but not yet HW-tested. Like his sister he will be altered once he has put on a few pounds. Mickey gets along with dogs he already knows but is unknown with new dogs. We’re told he’s fine with cats and children. (We’d recommend kids over 8 because he’s a bundle of energy.) Initially a bit stand-offish when first meeting new people, Mickey quickly warms up. He’s a good boy who will do well with a family willing to continue the obedience training he has just begun. A fenced yard is necessary. 12/6/2004
Diesel: is an active, friendly 18/20 month old neutered, long-haired male. He is up to date on shots. An owner surrender, he is in need of work on leash, as well as general obedience work. 12/6/2004
Sara: Sara is an 18 month to 2 year old, full mask, rough coated Saint Bernard. She is extremely hand shy and appears to have taken some abuse in her passed life. Sara has the ‘classic’ block head of a Saint Bernard and if drool isn’t your cup of tea then she’s not the dog for you. She has very long jowls/flews and does drool quite heavily. She’s loving (once she warms up to you) and totally housebroken. Would you like to give Sara here forever home. 12/6/2004
Aurora: is a 2 year old lady who was found wandering the streets. She has had at least 1 litter of puppies in her life but is now spayed. She is living in a foster home with other dogs, cats and children and gets along well with everyone. She is not a very big girl and is seriously underweight but we are fixing that. She will probably get to about 120 pounds now that she has a regular diet of good food. We are not sure but we think that Aurora may have a hearing problem, the vet is working to either confirm if she does or doesn’t. An update will be posted as soon as we have a definitive answer. Her apparent lack of hearing does not impair her in any way. It would also appear that some unkind human has had Aurora debarked as she only makes very soft “coughing” sounds instead of a real bark. 12/6/2004
Hoss: is a neuter male weighing in at 140 pounds. He is a very sweet and gentle soul that is showing some signs of separation anxiety. He will break out of the strongest crate you can find so crating him is not an option. The good news though is Hoss is house trained. He is very playful and seems to get along well with other dogs and cats. Hoss was in a temporary placement when the knuckle head decided that the poodle looked like a wonderful stuff toy. He picked him up in his mouth and was playing with him when everyone around him went crazy. Poor Hoss couldn’t understand what the big hubbla was over. The poodle wasn’t hurt and He was only playing with it so what was all the fuss about??!! After all he let the cats paw at his tail and face and he didn’t get all excited over that so why should everyone get so worked up over him having a little playtime with the poodle. Hoss walks well on a leash but will try to chase an occasional squirrel so background in obedient training is advised. 12/5/2004
Chloe: Chloe is a 8 month old smooth coat female with a full mask. She weights over 100 lbs now and will be a big girl. She is crate trained and housetrained.

Sammie: is a lovely female Saint Bernard. She is truly a love! Sammie was found wandering on a country road near Pearland, Texas. She had been shaved down fairly recently, but no one ever came to claim her. Sammie is one of the sweetest Saints I’ve ever met. Approximately 3 years old, she walks well on a leash, and isn’t a barker/jumper/or digger. She’s very smart, and I think in her prior life she might have been a housedog – when I let her out of her kennel she runs right to the front door. Sammie just needs someone to love. She tested mildly positive for heartworms, so she will be adopted out with a six month supply of Heartguard. (My vet won’t put dogs through the full heartworm treatment when they are low-antigen positive. He feels it’s inhumane.) Sammie is truly a wonderful girl! 11/22/2004

Bailey: is an 1 1/2 year old female who is looking for the right forever home. She is just a sweetheart with people and loves any and all attention that she can get! Because Bailey was an only puppy and was never taught sibling socialization, her social skills with other dogs is quite guarded. She seems to do best with another dog of her own size and CAN NOT go home with small dogs as she doesn’t know how to interact with them. Bailey would probably do best in a home where she can be the only dog or only have one other larger dog in the family. She will require some training so that her behavior becomes more desirable and is very willing to learn. 11/13/2004
Maverick: Is a young puppy with a lot of energy. A very loving dog always wants to touch or lean on you. Loves kids, walks and to go bye-bye. He has not been around cats so we don’t know his opinion of them. Maverick is crate trained and approximately 5 months old. 11/13/2004

Rule of thumb is “If it runs, we’ll chase it!” Zoe does pull some on the lead when she goes for walks at first, then she tends to slack off. Zoe seems to be housebroken also. She does seem to need some house manners. She feels that it is okay to pounce up on the sofa, no matter who is already sitting there! Zoe is full of personality & will make a great companion for some family! 11/12/2004
Cassie: 2-3 yr old longhaired female. Cassie was a pregnant stray who came in with JJ. Unfortunately she lost all her puppies but she’s a very sweet girl who just loves belly rubs and being petted. She’s not very good on a leash either, but again with some training and patience will do fine. She loves everyone and is starving for attention. 11/10/2004
Heidi: 2 yr old female. Rough coat. Came to rescue because her owners could not handle her and she made a bad outside only dog. She will need to have all forms of training but she is house trained and crate trained. She is good with other dogs and kids but will do best in a home where she can be the dominant female dog. 11/9/2004
Brandy: 2 yr old rough female. Came to rescue after her second family dumped her in the shelter. She is a high energy Saint.

Loves to go for car rides and wants attention all the time. 11/9/2004

Scotch: is a 4-5 year old Saint mix. He is very large weighing in at 200lbs or more. He has the body structure of a Saint Bernard, but is a beautiful gold color. He loves to play with other large dogs and children. He really needs a fenced in yard as his size can really intimidate those who don’t know him. He does not jump up on you, but will lean into you for attention. He is not well mannered on a leash. Scotch has an 8X16′ kennel that will go to his new home as he must be fed alone. He is food aggressive to other animals only. He has never shown aggression toward people. My family rescued him from our local animal shelter. He has been neutered and has current rabies vaccine. Scotch is a very big lovable baby and needs attention. 11/6/2004

Eager to please, she is housebroken and very calm although all she wants is love! Pickles is fast becoming used to being a house dog. If you have a lot of love to give this could be the dog for you. 11/3/2004
NEMO: This little longhaired cutie is 16 month old Nemo. He’s looking for a family to call his own. Neutered, housetrained, vaccinated and HW-negative, he’s an affectionate youngster who thinks that leashes are things a dog uses to tug on his humans but he’s a smart boy and he’ll quickly pick up leash manners and basic obedience. Nemo would like to be the family’s only dog (and he’s not too crazy about cats). He’s an enthusiastic fellow who gets real excited when his humans come home. He will need a fenced yard, and children over 10 years old. 11/3/2004

Duke: My name is Duke and I am a neutered 6 month old male. I am current on my vaccines and am on heartworm preventative. I am very silly. Believe it or not I was dumped at animal control by the lady who bred me. I was the last of the litter and she did not want me. I am very lovable and highly treat motivated. I just learned how to sit and shake in 1 week. I guess that means I am pretty smart too. I weigh about 77 lbs now and still have a lot of growing to do. 11/2/2004

She will be spayed on October 7th and then will be ready to interview prospective families. A bit on the thin side, she could stand to gain a few pounds so she can grow into her long legs. Helga plays well with other dogs and is reported to be okay with cats. She’ll be fine with children. Though she hasn’t yet had obedience training she is anxious to please and will learn quickly. A fenced yard is preferred. 11/1/2004

Bunny: Bunny is a young female about 2 who was dumped by her previous owner and was found by a lady who brought her to us. She is a very very shy dog who gives the impression of having been abused in the past. She is very very “hand shy” and any fast hand motion will cause her to cower down. Once she is confident with a new person she is very gentle and friendly. She craves affection and just loves to be with people she trusts. She gets along well with other large dogs but did kill a rabbit in her foster home so she cannot go to a home with small animals or small dogs. She will be spayed in the next few days and will be given her shots. She has no obvious health problems. She does prefer to be indoors and is housebroken. Bunny needs a home where she will not be alone fo any length of time and owners who are prepared to work with her to build her confidence. 10/31/2004
Heidi: has been with rescue nearly a year. She’s a smooth-coated female nearing her second birthday. She has a rich brown mantle with white legs and underbelly. Heidi is very devoted to her people, but needs other Saint Bernards in her life. A home with two or three other dogs would be just super. Kids would be fun, too. 10/28/2004
Heidi: loves people and tends to select a single person to bestow all of her love upon. She ought to go to a home with other dogs where she can be a member of a pack. 10/28/2004

Jake needs a place so he can run and play during the day But, would enjoy sleeping at your feet at night. 10/19/2004
Bailey: is a 4 year old neutered male. This poor boy was adopted 1 year ago this month and brought back into rescue due to the fact that he was peeing in the house. We have not had any problems with Bailey in rescue but we do keep him crated when we are not at home and in the evening when we are all sleeping. His former adopter believes that Bailey would have accidents because he didn’t like to be at home alone. Bailey walks well on a leash and gets along with dogs and cats. He is really a very sweet boy so if you are a stay at home person or retired Bailey would be just the companion you are looking for. If you work it would be advised that Bailey be kept in a crate in your absence. UPDATE; Bailey hates the crate but the good news is he is not having any accidents in the house. He just needed to have someone home with him most of the day so a stay at home mom or a retired person would suit Bailey just fine. Also Bailey’s hips are not good so he lays around a lot. 10/18/2004
Tyler: This nice boy was rescued from an Illinois shelter after his owners just didn’t want him anymore. He was left outside of the shelter. He is about 18 months old. He is shy but warms up quickly.

LUCKYBOY: is a 12 month old (estimated by vet) rough-coat male. He weighs in at 120 lbs. & is still growing!!!! Luckyboy is neutered, current on all shots, has been heartworm tested, and is on flea & heartworm preventative. Luckyboy is housebroken, is good with other dogs, & is also good with cats. He loves to go for car rides, & enjoys riding shotgun, but will also lay down in the backseat too. Luckyboy needs some work on the leash. He pulls some & likes to walk the zig zag pattern. Luckyboy is highly treat motivated, so he should do very well with some obedience training. As of right now he only knows the command “Sit”. Luckyboy just loves to please his owner! He is a very sweet boy who loves to receive belly rubs too. Luckyboy is a very happy, go lucky, big goofy pup, who loves to play with his chew toys & chase the ball around. Luckyboy came to us as a stray, in horrible condition. He was covered in blood & open sores, & was very underweight. He had a terrible skin infection, ear infection & mange. If we would have known who owned him, we would have prosecuted them for neglect. Luckyboy has come thru like a trooper from day1. He has had to be on antibiotics daily, & also had to be dipped weekly for his mange. Everyone at our vet’s office has fallen in love with him! Luckyboy is now a beautiful , healthy, happy pup waiting for the right family to adopt him! 10/15/2004
Zach: This very handsome 1 year old was rescued from an Illinois shelter after his owners left him tied out in the backyard to be ignored. He is great with other dogs, cats, and older children. He could use obedience training as he was never taught any manners. His foster mom is doing a great job of starting the job. He would love a second chance at a wonderful forever home! 10/15/2004
JAKE: is a 3 year old (estimated by vet) smooth-coat male. He weighs in at around 100 lbs., but still needs to gain another 20 lbs. or so. Jake is neutered, current on shots, has been heartworm tested, and started on flea & heartworm preventative. He is also housebroken. Jake came to us as a neglect case. He only weighed in at 66 lbs. & was chained to a tree. Jake has flourished into a very happy, sweet boy! Jake loves everyone! He is good with other dogs, cats & children (he’s been around kids 5 years & older). Jake walks well on a leash & rides very good in a car. He is a little timid, has a laid back attitude, & is very mild mannered. Jake absolutely loves attention & will lean against you to get some. Jake acts very puppyish. He will chew on anything that is within his reach, if it is lying around. Jake loves to run & play, & has recently discovered toys! So he loves to play with all his doggie toys! If there are other dogs in the house, he does like to hoard his bones & toys to himself! He hasn’t learned to share with them yet. I guess it is because he has never had them before. Jake does know how to “Sit” on command, & is a quick learner. Jake will make a great companion for anyone! 10/14/2004
MAGGIE: is a 1-2 year old Saint Bernard who was rescued from a shelter in Maryland. Maggie was a stray, so we have no history on her but from what we can tell, she probably belonged to someone as she is very attentive to people. She is on heartworm and flea preventative and up to date on her shots. From what we have determined, Maggie prefers to be the queen of her castle, and doesn’t particularly like to share her master with other dogs. However as picky as she is, we have seen her play with another male dog. She would prefer to have her owner all to herself though. Maggie is very loving, full of playfulness and aims to please. She listens to people quite well, knows how to sit on command, and walks fairly well on a training collar. Maggie is house trained and likes to be inside, close to her people when they are home. She loves a good brushing, she just sits and soaks up the attention. She also likes to slip her master a kiss now and then just to let them know how much she cares. Maggie is on the small side for a Saint with a little growing left to do. Currently she is 85# and her target weight is likely around 100#. Maggie has an enormous amount of potential and wants nothing more than to love, be loved and please her master. As stated before she has gotten along with another male dog, but then tends to challenge other dogs and reacts sometimes without provocation. We do believe Maggie will probably do best as an only dog, but the behavior with other dogs can and should be worked with. A lot of her behavior is probably due to the instability in her life. We are also hoping that after she is spayed, she will lose some of her dominant traits. She needs a strong yet gentle owner with prior dog experience that will continue her training. In return, Maggie will provide a lifetime of love, devotion and happiness to her new family if only given the chance. Despite her troubles with other dogs, she is truly a wonderful companion to her humans. It would be best that she go to a home with older children, just because she tends to be a rough player. Maggie also seems to do well with cats. She will chase them if they are running, but if they are just standing next to her rubbing up against her, she could care less about them. 10/14/2004
Hogan: is a 2 year old, male rough coated Saint Bernard. Hogan is totally housebroken, does NOT counter surf, trash dive or any of those other obnoxious habits that get these guys into trouble. Hogan is currently fostered in a home with various sized dogs and gets along with all of them. He is somewhat cautious of men so the family that adopts him will have to introduce him to any man coming into the home. He’s great with children and woman and becomes bonded quickly and eager to protect his family! 10/14/2004
BRUCE: This very handsome roughcoat boy is three-year-old Bruce. He’s healthy, neutered, housetrained, vaccinated and HW-negative. He does well with other dogs and with cats. Though he has been with toddler-age children we prefer a family with children over 8. He’s a sweet, affectionate boy who loves to sit in his human’s lap and get kisses. Bruce has successfully completed two obedience courses. He sits for food, treats and attention, and he walks well on leash. Bruce is a dream dog who would love to have a stay-at-home mom so he’ll have someone on whom to shower attention during the day. The successful applicant will have other dogs, a fenced yard and older children. 10/13/2004
SCRIBBLES: Look at that adorable little face! Miss Scribbles is 2 1/2 years old, and you’ll never meet a sweeter dog. She’s spayed, vaccinated, HW-negative and housetrained. She’s been with children as young as four years of age. She’s terrific with other dogs and is playful with cats. Laid-back, affectionate and absolutely beyond sweet, Scribs likes nothing better than to cuddle with her humans. (And she’d be thrilled if you’d throw a few tummy rubs her way.) Scribbles has had a few health problems in her young life but now she’s healthy and she’d love a family to call her own. A fenced yard is not necessary. 10/13/2004

She is much happier now, and beginning to gain weight. Heidi is housebroken and likes other dogs and cats. She is up to date on all shots, spayed, and on heartworm and flea preventative. She deserves to have a new family she can call her own. 10/7/2004

Baxter: 3 yr old male. Rough coat. Great with everyone and everything. He is house trained and knows most obedience although a refresher course would be good. He was turned into rescue when his previous owners didn’t want him after the baby was born. 10/5/2004
April: 3 year old female. Smooth coat. Good with other dogs and people but will need additional socialization with both. Needs to be the dominant female (or only) in the house. Very protective of kids and thinks they all belong to her. Will need an experienced Saint owner willing to put in the time to train & socialize her. She is house trained and crate trained. Has some obedience but can be stubborn. She is not good with cats. 10/5/2004
Belle: is a 5 year old female. Smooth coat. Very well behaved in the house. Pretty good on a leash. Needs a home with no small animals and she needs to be the only female in the home. She is house trained and would do best with an experienced owner who can handle a highly dominant female. Belle is very submissive with people. 10/5/2004
Gordon: is a 1.5 yo neutered male rough coat. He is all puppy looking for love. 10/4/2004
Bono: has had a hard life. his owner is in jail for buying him and sticking him out in the yard without adjusting his collar at all. the material of the collar forced itself into poor Bono’s neck as he grew. bono rocked his way to us about three weeks ago after being cooped up in a shelter since December. bono was so happy to see wide open spaces that he shot like a cannon ball all over the yard. this one and a half old puppy loves to play imaginary electric guitars- jumping up and down. bono isn’t your typical big hair in the eyes rocker. he has an attractive white face and acoustic brown splotches on his back. 10/4/2004
Buster: dear, sweet 1 1/2 year old male St. Bernard who lost his home when his owners moved to Australia and they didn’t take him along. We picked Buster up in Victorville, CA and he rode extremely well in the van. He enjoyed seeing all the lights in the desert. Buster gets along with other dogs and is a big good boy. Neutered, shots, microchip 10/3/2004
Angel: This rough coat little lady is approx 18 months old. She is small for the breed, currently weighing 88 pounds but she came to us from a neglectful situation where she was rarely fed. Now that she has a good diet she is gaining weight rapidly and I believe she will probably get to about 110. Angel is a very sweet, gentle dog who gets along with other dogs, big and small, is not bothered by cats at all and she loves kids. She will make a wonderful family dog. She prefers to spend the majority of her time indoors, preferably close to a human. 10/1/2004
Puppies:::::::::: This litter of 10 Smooth Coat Saints were born in rescue after their mother was abandoned in an Illinois shelter. They were born 6/3/04. They have been in a wonderful foster home and have been exposed to children, cats, and dogs. They are very well socialized. We will be taking applications and placing the puppies with only VERY serious adopters. Adopters MUST have a fence, MUST be willing to allow the Saint to live indoors, and MUST enroll the Saint in obedience class. 9/30/2004
Baker: This 2 year old was rescued from an Indiana Shelter after his owners decided he was just too much puppy for them. He is good with other dogs, cats, and older children. He is a sweet guy and a big goof ball! Won’t you give him a second chance? 9/30/2004
NORMAN: Norman is a wonderful, loving three-year-old roughcoat who comes to us following his family’s divorce. He is housetrained and UTD on vaccinations. He’s scheduled to be neutered and tested for HW. Like so many Saints, Norman has a seizure disorder but it’s well-maintained on medication that’s quite inexpensive. Norman plays well with other dogs and even tolerates cats. He’s been around children of all ages (including an infant). A fenced yard is preferred but is not essential. Won’t you take a chance on this sweet, affectionate boy? 9/29/2004
TUGGER: Tugger was born on Christmas Day 2001 and what a sweet present he was! Alas, his family got caught up in their own lives and had no time for him so he ended up in a kill shelter in the south. From there he made his way to New England Saint Bernard Rescue. Tug is heartworm-negative, up-to-date on vaccinations, neutered and housetrained. He’s ready to go to a new home. Could that be yours? Tug is good with female dogs only. He’s great with kids and also with strangers. Don’t know about cats. A fenced yard is necessary, and giant-breed experience would be a plus. 9/29/2004
Weston: He’s a 2 yr old longhaired boy that’s sweet as sweet can be. He is a longhaired but has recently had a haircut. Weston is good with everything. He’s lived with kids, other dogs, cats, & ferrets. He’s housebroken and loves belly rubs. He’s had some obedience training but still needs some practice on leash. He wants to be someone’s forever companion to love and be loved. He would make a great pet for just about anybody. He is a true gentle giant. 9/27/2004
Mandy: Mandy is a young female came from a shelter into rescue. Very sweet girl, content to lay on the floor and be petted for hours gets along with other dogs, doesn’t seem to be dominant. Has very little interest in cats. Will check them out, but that’s all. Very good house manners, seems to be housebroken. Tight lip, so no drooling. Very lady-like and calm mannered. But has plenty of energy to play when she wants to. Knows some basic commands, but could always use a brush up. Intelligent. Will probably remain on the petite side. Easy to care for coat. Very good with the groomer. Easy to work with. Likes to jump up on you occasionally and give you hugs with her paws, working on that. A home with older children would probably be best. 9/27/2004
Suzie: is a lovely longhaired female saint. Spayed& up to date on shots and weighing around 125#. She is friendly, good with children and most other dogs. Cats are unknown, although she has chased. Just turned five she is vital, full of energy and eager to play. Fenced yard to play and a companion would be great. Due to her size, children should be older. Saint experience is a plus. 9/25/2004
Dizzy: Is a 7 month old, full mask, rough coat, female Saint Bernard. Dizzy still has a LOT of puppy in her so she’ll need a forever home that is willing to work with her on her housebreaking and the “don’t chew” command – both of which are typical puppy behaviors. Dizzy has been spayed, up-to-date on her vaccinations, on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives and is microchipped. Would you like to give Dizzy her forever home? 9/25/2004
Rosie: is a 3 ½ year old spay female. The poor gal is the product of bad breeding. Her front paws head East and West, her bottom jaw is longer than the top jaw and it is crooked as well. Due to that she is a bit sloppy when eating and can drool a lot when she is hot or exercised. Also Rosie paces when she walks. Pacing is when a dog will walk with the right front leg and right back leg at the same time. Most animals walk with right front and left back. Usually dogs that pace do it because they just walk funny or it could be an indications of spinal problems.. I am not noticing any problems with her spine. She has only had an accident in the morning but otherwise is very good in the house. Rosie gets along well with other dogs and seems to be good with cats. She is learning that it is impolite to bark at her furry friends and is becoming quite the lady. Rosie has not had such a nice life. It looks as though she was never groomed or fed properly. What she doesn’t have in background and beauty she certainly makes up for in personality. If you are looking for a real couch potato Rosie will be your dream come true. UPDATE;8/18/2004 Poor Rosie cannot understand that nobody wants her because she isn’t perfect. On top of that we have recently found out that she is not very good with cats so Rosie will need a hone without cats. I have updated her pictures as well. Her coat is finally growing in and she is looking very pretty. Rosie was so frightened of her bathes that she would lay down in the tub but now she looks forwards to her bath and grooming as she has learned that it is her special time to spend with her foster mom.

Burgess: is a healthy, fun AKC registered 4 year old who has been neutered and is current on all his shots. He is very smart and a beautiful dog weighing approx. 130 lbs. When he walks he is almost prancing. He runs like the wind and is beautiful to watch. He can open doors that do not latch tight and will get out of a fence that is not totally secure. He does well with other dogs and children 10 years and older but does not like cats. He his very gentle when he licks peanut butter off our fingers, one of his favorite treats. We suspect some abuse in his past. He is very cautious with new people and at times his body language suggests he is expecting us to abuse him in some way. Burgess need lots of love and a firm hand. He is great on a leash and comes when called. He will do well by himself or with another dog. 9/20/2004
GUS 2: Friendly and playful, 17 month old Gus will steal your heart. He’s vaccinated, neutered, housetrained, and heartworm-negative. Gus does well with young kids, cats, and most dogs. He’s a big fan of treats and will follow you to the ends of the earth for a piece of cheese. Though he’s decended from a dozen or more American and Canadian champions (including Mountain Spirit, Slaton, Stoan, and Cache Retreat), he has never been in the show ring. He much prefers to just nap on the couch. A fenced yard is preferred. 9/19/2004
RILEY: Just a year old, Riley came to us from a municipal shelter in New York where he had been surrendered by his owners because “he got too big”. Huh? The little guy only weighs around 95 pounds soaking wet and is easily 20 pounds underweight. He’s had a rough early life and is recovering from a pretty serious case of pneumonia. But Riley’s feeling much better now, and would like a family of his own on whom he can bestow puppy kisses. Neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm-negative, he’s almost completely housetrained and tries very hard to let us know when he needs to go outside to take care of business. He was raised with children and is friendly with most other dogs but is unknown with cats. He LOVES riding in the car and getting tummy rubs. We’d prefer a fenced yard. Won’t you let sweet little Riley into your heart? 9/19/2004
DAVE: Dave is a handsome 2-1/2 year old roughcoat who is neutered, UTD on vaccinations, HW-negative and housetrained. He does well with older children but should be the family’s only pet. Dave is the product of abuse, and the successful applicant will be patient and willing to help Dave learn to trust humans again. Though he has some basic obedience he can be stubborn at times and he hasn’t yet mastered the fine art of controlled leash-walking. All that said, Dave is a good boy who’s quite affectionate and he will be a wonderful dog for the right person. We are requiring a sturdy six-foot fence, and Saint experience is essential. 9/19/2004
Emma: Has a lovely face, and is settling in. She went to the vet yesterday, and was bathed, given shots, etc. Poor thing, she weighs only 66 pounds, and you can count every bone just by looking at her. I can fit my cupped hand around her backbone. The vet said she should be about 100. She thinks she is 1 to 1 1/2 yrs old. She is getting along fine with the other dogs. Emma will be spayed, current on all vaccinations, on flea/tick and heartworm preventative as well as microchipped prior to placement. Would you like to give Emma her forever home. 9/17/2004
GRETA: is a 2 year old ( estimated by vet ) smooth-coat female. She weighs in at around 110 lbs. or so. Greta is spayed, current on all shots, has been heartworm tested, and started on her flea & heartworm preventative. She is housebroken & crate trained too. Greta is a very laid back girl for her age. She would prefer a home with older children & she seems to do well with other dogs. Greta does okay with cats, but tends to want to chase them. She enjoys going for walks, & likes being near her family. Greta can jump a 4ft. fence, that is probably why she came into the shelter as a stray. It would be best that she go to a home with a higher fence, or to someone who will leash walk her a few times a day. 9/16/2004
Baloo: Hi my name is Baloo. I was named after the big, clumsy bear on Jungle book. I am 126lbs and am a little to thin for my build. I am 1yr and 9mnths old. I am a giant smoothcoat, neutered male. I am current on all my vaccines, on flea and heartworm preventative and am micro-chipped. I am told I am a big baby. I love to be loved. I like other dogs but I am not sure yet about the cats. I want to chase them but my foster mom won’t let me. I love playing with the kids, I like to give kisses to the baby (his face taste good). He sneaks me cookies when mom is not watching. I know how to sit, lay down, and give paw. I like leaning on my foster mom to get love. It was really fun when I knocked her over then I got to kiss her whole face. She laughed and told me how big and clumsy I was. Can you imagine that, she’s the one who fell and she thinks I am clumsy HA. I love to get rubbed and play ball. I like playing with my foster family but I would really like a forever home, if yours is it. 9/16/2004
MAX: is a 4-5 year old rough-coat male. He weighs in at around 140 lbs. Max is neutered, housebroken, current on all shots, and on flea & heartworm preventative. Max is a very laid back boy. He loves hanging out on the couch with a human buddy, head in lap for lots of petting. Max also loves to go for leash walks. When he sees the leash, he gets very excited! What he really likes to do is to take the leash in his mouth & take his human for a walk! Max is not a rowdy boy, but he does love to play outside with his human when he has the chance. Max is definitely a people dog, he really likes to be close to his people. Max is fine around cats, & does fine around other large dogs and puppies. He especially likes female dogs, but humans are his favorite thing. If you are looking for your next “Best Friend”, please consider Max, nothing would make him happier! 9/16/2004

Katie: Katie is a 1-year old female smooth coat tri-colored Saint Bernard. Katie was a stray at a Maryland animal shelter and her family never came to pick her up. She is small for a Saint, weighing only about 95#. She is in great shape with a beautiful coat! She is a loyal and loving companion to her foster family and enjoys the company of other dogs of all shapes and sizes. Katie loves to swim, she loves to go to the doggie park and meet new friends, and she loves to play tug-o-war with her foster brothers. Katie is still a puppy and will chew things when left unattended, but she has never been destructive to furniture. Katie is housebroken, crate-trained, and uses the doggie door when she needs to go in and out. She walks fairly well on leash, but will need continued work on this. She knows sit, down, and come and has excellent house manners. Katie is excellent with all people, including children in the neighborhood. Katie would like to go to a home with another doggie playmate with lots of energy! She loves to chase and to be chased and enjoys frequent trips to the dog park and the beach/lake. Katie is an amazing pup with lots of love to give and is ready to find her forever family. Katie is spayed, up to date on all of her shots, heartworm negative and currently on heartworm preventative and flea/tick control. Katie is being fostered in Virginia Beach. 9/12/2004
Socrates: is a 2 ½ year old neutered male. His owner past away which left Socrates homeless. He weighs in at 120 and has a long coat. Socrates is housetrained and loves to play with other dogs. Cats are unknown at this time. He walks very nicely on a leash and does know basic commands. Socrates is a big goober boy so if you don’t like drool you will not like this big guy. He seems to enjoy kids and loves to greet people at the door. Socrates’ hip aren’t good so it would be best not to let him get overweight. Also he had seizures just before coming into rescue. He is on medication at this time and the seizures are under control. The cost of his medicine will run about $18.00 to $20.00 a month. 9/7/2004
Bandit: is an 8 month old neutered male. Although he may look like a saint I doubt that he has any saint bernard in him. He is a smart little fellow that is very active and just loves to play. Bandit is a very dominate male that likes to show everyone that he is the boss. Due to this behavior I feel it is best that he is the only pet in the household. Although he is small he is very well put together weighing in at 60 pounds. Bandit knows how to sit on command and is learning to heel on leash. Bandit is the first one at the door to greet company but unfortunately he greets them by jumping up on them. He is just so happy to see people that he can’t contain his excitement. If you are looking for an active medium sized doggy Bandit will be the one for you! UPDATE; Bandit’s name has now been changed to Shorty Living in a house full of saints we thought the name change was appropriate. I have found that Shorty is not dominate and will be submissive with an alpha dog. He definitely is not good with small animals as he has a high prey drive so if you have birds or cats Shorty would not be a good dog for you to own. He is doing great in obedient training and will make an excellent agility dog. 9/7/2004
Terra: This sweet 5 year old was given up to rescue after her owner fell on hard times and could no longer care for her. Terra was very loved and her personality shows it! She is a great dog!

She is a snuggler and will love a good belly rub! 9/7/2004

He will need to be on medications for the remainder of his life. He is just a handsome man and quite the lover! He is a big boy with a big heart! Won’t you give Dryfus a happy place to live out the next half of his life? 9/7/2004
MATIAS is a sweet three year old roughcoat male. He is HW-negative, neutered, and housetrained. His vaccinations are current. What a well-traveled dog he is! Born is Chile, he lived in Australia before moving to the United States. His family’s employment will be taking them to several European countries over the next couple of years, thus they asked us to help find him a new home. Mati plays well with most other dogs. He’s very curious about cats but does play gently with squirrels. He loves hanging with his humans and getting tummy scratches, but he doesn’t like it when the rubbish truck comes. Maybe he thinks they’re stealing his family’s trash?? He’s an affectionate fellow who has been described as “a gentleman”. Mati would do best in a family with slightly older kids as he doesn’t realize his size. The successful applicant will have giant breed experience and a fenced yard (either a traditional fence or an invisible fence). 9/7/2004
Bruits: IS a sweet ,sweet male coming to Rescue this week. He has been nurtured. He is 4-5 year old. His owner passed away and then he was tied to a tree by his neighbors who did not feed not water him as needed. A nice lady noticed him and the empty house. So also noted his skin started to lose some hair and he was losing weight. She ran down the nearest relative and received a release from them. She has offered to keep him in her home town of Conway Arkansas for a few days while we work on placing this sweetie. Robin has offered to drive as far as 2 hours from Conway in any direction to meet you. He is now being vetted . he has gotten his shots, worming, and will be tested for heartworms. His hair loss was flea related so we will some having his bald spots fill back in. Bruits is house broken, loves getting on the bed with you. Is standoffish of other dogs. Cats are nothing to him. He loves all people and is very happy not to be living on a tree. 9/4/2004
TANNER: Not quite two years old and full of mischief, Tanner would very much like a family to call his own. He’s neutered, housebroken, HW-negative, and his vaccinations are current. Tanner has been with children as young as three but we would suggest slightly older kids for him as he isn’t aware that he’s a good-sized boy. He is friendly with submissive dogs but has no experience with cats. Tanner knows some commands (and obeys them when it suits him). He does need a bit more work on leash-walking. It’s not that he WANTS to pull his human; he’s just in a hurry to scope out his world. Tanner’s a sweet young boy with lots of potential. We will want an Saint- or giant-breed experienced owner and a fenced yard for him. 9/1/2004
Shatzi: 2 year old female. Smooth coat. Half mask. Came to rescue from Alamogordo, NM. She was left there in a rest area. She will need obedience training and we are working on her house training. She loves to lay on the couch and stretch out as far as she can. She will also do this same behavior on the bed if you let her up there. Shatzi is not big on car rides. We have been taking her places to get her used to riding in the car and she is doing better. Shatzi is a little afraid of all strangers but after an initial bark will go up to be petted with the other dogs. She is good with other dogs but hasn’t learned how to play yet. She is trying though. 9/1/2004

Daisy: Her tail never stops wagging, excellent on leash, kind and generous with her body, doesn’t jump , graceful. She had a pretty rotten life attached to a two foot length heavy chain with heavy locks at either end attached to a dreadful filthy collar so right it would hardly come off.

Dolly: This very sweet lady has had an incredible rough start in life. After falling into the wrong hands, she was left outside to live, chained to a dog house. The owners finally gave her up to a shelter and we were called in to rescue her. She was matted head to toe in feces and urine. She was in terrible condition. After an intense grooming, she looks 100% better. She came home from the veterinarian, met her new foster brothers and sisters and curled up on the couch to sleep. She is the nicest girl! A little shy at first but quickly warms up. She is approximately 6 years old. She is great with other dogs and cats. She is looking for a forever home where she can be loved, sleep on the couch, and enjoy endless belly rubs. Could it be yours? 8/29/2004

Bertha: is a 2 year old smooth female. She came to rescue after 2 trips through the shelter. First owners turned her in after she supposedly killed a goat and a llama. They also said that she was female dog aggressive. The shelter adopted her out to a family that tried to make her an outside only dog. They returned her stating that she had separation anxiety. Bertha is not female dog aggressive nor does she have separation anxiety. She has gotten along well with all the other foster dogs and loves being in the house. She can/ will jump a 4 ft fence so a 6 ft fence will be required. She does not like being left outside so she needs a family that will leave her in the home when they leave. She is crate trained because she will troll the counters and trash cans. She knows some obedience but could use more. She is a happy, bouncy girl that needs another dog to play with her. She is great with kids and loves to wrestle with them. Bertha will make a wonderful addition to any family that is willing to put in the time to train her. 8/29/2004

He has been Neutered this week, he checked neg for heart worms. HE seems to be in good health. Seems to be a young saint approx one to two years of age. He is not people aggressive nor dog aggressive so far. He choose not to notice the loose cat at the vets office so we will say he is also not cat aggressive. He is at this time being held at a Vet’s office some where in the center of TN. 8/25/2004

He is fine with kids but his sheer size might be intimidating for real little ones.

BO: is a Lafayette, LA southern gentleman. He is from the Vermillion Parish animal control on his last day A male due to be fixed this week, as soon as we can verified he is in fact a saint. As you can see his photo is way to close to see his body. Hopefully we will be able to get a nice photo’s soon so we can take responsibility of him, his care, and new forever home placement. He is approx.11 mo old. The vet has given his rabies and bordetella shots. The lady wishing SBRF to handle his placement did give him his DHLP. She stated that he had long hair, but has been shaved. I will be calling the vet’s office Monday or Tuesday June 1st. When the vet’s open to ask about him and to see if some one there can make arrangements with the local LA rescuers to take a better photo of him for you all to see. He is reported as being sweet and not being people aggressive, Nor is he dog aggressive. As to cat aggressive we do not think so but do not know at this time. Being a young dog placed at the shelter by his owners due to their moving out of town . We would think he would make a wonderful pet. 7/31/2004
Cassius: 8 year old male. Smooth coat. Came to rescue after his owner left him chained to a tree and moved. He has spent his whole life at the end of a chain and has the scars to prove it. He will need all forms of socialization and training. He is fine with other dogs but is a little growly when other dogs crowd him. He is good with kids and loves to sit at your feet for pets. He would do best in a mellower home with other dogs who don’t want to play with him since he doesn’t know how to play anyway. He spends most of his time taking up space and looking for love. 7/30/2004

Oreo: female St rescued from A VERY neglectful situation! Oreo was left to roam the swamp land that the “owners” had. She had to find food where she could, when she could, in the garbage. They had to fend for themselves, and find their own shelter also. The “owner” also has another St that happens to be a male and he is tied up “behind the barn”, When we picked up the girls , they were both severely infested with Ticks and they were extremely underweight also. Both girls were positive for heartworm! Due to her age (she is only a baby) when bred; due to malnourishment; due to interbreeding; and very probably stress, Oreo is now in very loving foster homes starting recovery and will be available for adoption to their forever homes in the next few weeks. Oreo has been treated for Heartworm and will be spayed soon. The local humane society is working with animal control to see that the remaining St’s living conditions either are corrected or the dog will be removed from the situation! 7/24/2004

He came to us as a stray and he seems to be a very happy boy overall….but, can get very insecure if challenged. He came in with Amy and seems to do well with other large dogs at this time, but we are still accessing his behaviors. Because of his insecurities, Boozer will need a home who can help him adjust into a family life. It is not clear if Boozer knows about children, so he needs an adult home or one with older children. 7/13/2004

She will require a little extra TLC and adjustment time in her new home as with her age, changes tend to take its toll. Asia is very sweet and likes to just hang out with you.

She would do well in a home with small children, cats, other dogs or almost any other situation. 7/12/2004
Trooper: needs someone with patience & understanding. He is a totally different dog now than when he went to his foster home. He’s still timid. Coming forward, sniffing, & then backing up is still a common reaction to new things. Trooper is very passive unless he’s excited. Then his name should have been Tigger. He bounces on his front feet up & down. He’s still trying to learn how to “play”. A home with another happy, passive dog would be good for him. Sometimes he ignores the cats & sometimes he chases them. Trooper is very smart & learns quickly. He loves to be sat with and petted. He will sometimes seek it out but never insistently like some dogs. He likes to be near you but not on top of you. Trooper should be put somewhere where he can’t destroy anything when he’s left alone. He goes to the kennel & gets in on his own when you say kennel. A good sturdy kennel will be a must. Over all he is a quiet, easy dog. He still prefers women over men but there are some boys he likes right away. 7/12/2004
Allie: is almost a normal dog now! She plays with her sister, Jasmine, frequently and is learning to steal socks!

Allie likes children and ignores cats.7/12/2004

BUSTER: is a 21 month old roughcoat male. He’s a friendly boy who is neutered, housetrained, vaccinated and heartworm-negative. On the thin side, Buster needs to put on a little weight to reach his optimum size. He would like a family who will spend time playing with him.

Reba most likely needs a home that has had saints before. she is a very protective dog, and would be a good watchdog. 7/7/2004
Cora: is a 3 1/2 year old female. Smooth coat. Picked up as a stray. Most likely used to be an outside only dog. She will need additional socialization and all forms of training. She loves attention and will make a great family member with a little effort on the new owners part. 7/7/2004

Betty: is an almost 3 year old rough female. She is very mellow for her age and spends most of her time taking up space and snoring.

Betty needs a family that will leave her inside the home when they are gone. She is not destructive and behaves well. Betty is good with other dogs and kids but has not learned to play yet. Betty would do best in a home where she can be the dominant female dog. 7/7/2004
Hannah: is a 2 year old spay female. She has been very spoiled and will need to learn not to jump on people when greeting them. Hannah loves to run and play with children as well as taking long car rides. She is about 10 pounds overweight and due to her being diagnosed with mild hip dysphasia it would be in her best interest to keep her trim. Newfoundland’s have a heavy coat that will need to be groom weekly so if you are looking for a low maintenance dog Hannah will not be the dog for you. 7/5/2004
Harley: is a 18 month old neutered male. Harley has a smudge coat and is tri in color. He could stand to lose a few pounds so you can guess what his favorite thing to do is. Although he has not been obedient trained he is a fast learner and is walking well on a leash. Harley does like to talk to you and is learning to stop when told. He adores children but due to his size we would like to place him with children at least 8 years of age and older. 7/5/2004
Bear: is one fun-loving Saint Bernard puppy! Only 9 months old, Bear has never met a stranger, and is always ready for a good time. Bear was turned into Rescue when his owner was deployed to Iraq. He has been neutered, is current on his vaccinations, and is heartworm negative. Bear rode all the way from Fort Polk, LA to Houston, which is about a three-hour drive, like an absolute angel. He’s a very well adjusted fellow, and will be a wonderful addition to the family that adopts him. 7/5/2004
Emmy Lou:Sweet Emmy Lou is still just a baby! Only 6 months old, she was turned in to Rescue when her owner, a single mom, lost her job. When Emmy Lou first came to me, she was absolutely terrified. All she would do was curl up in her kennel with her back turned to me, her face shoved in the corner. She trembled when I petted her. But after just a few days she knew she was safe and loved and now she’s the happy puppy that she should be! Emmy Lou is truly a sweetheart – she’ll crawl right up in your lap to be loved on if you’ll let her. And when I let her out of her kennel, she loves to run around the yard as fast as she can. She has been spayed, brought current on her vaccinations, and is on heartworm preventative. Emmy Lou is not leash trained – she crawls when you try to walk her on a leash. I have to wonder if a leash was somehow involved in whatever has made her so timid around new people. Emmy Lou will need to be adopted by a family that can give her the love and attention that she deserves, and that will be patient with her until she feels secure with them. 7/5/2004
Bonnie: is 2 years old. She and Clyde were found together and are great friends. She still needs to see our vet to get her shots and to be spayed. She really likes people. 7/5/2004

Sophie: and Montana: are 13 month old spay females. They are very sweet and are extremely attached to one another. Their life, up to this point, has not been very good but through it all they still are affectionate and trusting. These poor girls have eye problems and will need several surgeries to repair them. They have Entropion which is where the top eyelid turns into the eye. The lashes are constantly scratching the eye. They also have Ectropion where the bottom eye lid is too large and will pucker which puts more pressure on the top lid. Their estimated cost to repair their eyes, vaccinations, and spay will run around $1500.00 a piece. Hopefully you will find it in your hearts to donate something towards making these girls finally feel comfortable and not in pain. All donations, no matter what size, are greatly appreciated. 6/25/2004
LUCY 2: is a true gentle giant. She is a 2-year-old roughcoat who is spayed, housetrained, UTD on vaccinations, and HW-negative. Lucy is wonderful with children of all ages.

A fenced yard is not necessary. 6/25/2004
TIMBER: This handsome roughcoat dude is 5 years old, UTD on all vaccinations, HW-negative, and housetrained. He was recently neutered. Very much underweight, Timber needs to put some meat on his bones (and this ought to be fairly simple to accomplish because he’s never seen a morsel of food he didn’t like). He does well with some, but not all, other dogs, he peacefully coexists with cats. Timber passed his temperament test with flying colors, exhibiting no food aggression or guarding. Though he’s a bit insecure, he’s a sociable boy who craves affection and interaction. He’s friendly with strangers and would probably do best in a family with slightly older kids, simply because of his enthusiasm. Timber has a lot of love to give the family who will welcome a “slightly used” dog into their hearts. Might that be you? A fence is preferred. 6/25/2004

Julie is highly treat motivated, which makes obedience training much easier. Right now she is going thru obedience class at Petsmart & is doing well. Julie is fine with cats as long as they do not run! She seems to think anything that runs is playing! Julie would probably do well with a family with another active dog, so they can wear each other out. This girl is a classic leaner, & will lean against you for attention. She loves being petted!

Chuckles does know a few commands such as; “SIT”, “LAY”, “STAY”, “COOKIE” & will usually “HEAL”, until his selective hearing kicks in! Chuckles does enjoy taking his human out on walks. He also loves to play tug, chew on his bones, & run with the ball in his mouth. Chuckles is a very laid back boy. He enjoys playing for a little while, but then just wants to relax the rest of the day, especially in the air conditioning!

Sweetie Pie: is a very lovely, young female Saint. About 18 months old, she has been spayed and is current on her vaccinations. She walks well on a leash, and loves to be brushed and be loved on. Sweetie Pie really wants to be with people, so she needs to be adopted by a family that will allow her to be in the house. A wooden fence is also a requirement. Sweetie Pie is weak heartworm positive so she will need to be adopted by a family that will agree to give her Heartgard every month. (My vet will not treat her for heartworms.

When her pit bull attacked Doc, she decided that it was all just too much for her to handle by herself, so she turned Doc in to the local animal shelter. Doc remembers having been attacked by the intact male pit bull (Doc had to have 30 stitches on his face), so he needs to be adopted by a family where he can be the only male dog. Approximately 2 and ½ years old, Doc has now been neutered, brought current on his vaccinations, and is heartworm negative. Doc is an absolute love. And just look at that grin! His favorite thing in the world is to roll over and have his belly rubbed. He’d lay there for hours if your hand could hold up!

We will be moving this soon as my husband is going to enrolling in the Seminary in Iowa to become an ordained minister. We will be moving into campus housing that does not allow pets so we are needing to find a new home for Scout. He’ll be 6 years old in June and has been a part of our family his whole life. He is neutered, well trained and well cared for. We’ve had him to the Vet for check ups every 6 months his whole life. He does have skin allergies that have required certain food though it’s not any more expensive then most. We have a son that will be three in May and Scout is an angel with him. In fact, Scout rarely even barks. He is such a calm, laid back dog. He never has accidents in the house. It is so important to us that he goes to a home where he’ll be well cared for and we want to make sure the new caretakers are familiar with Saints (their size, shedding, etc) so they know what they are getting into.” 4/16/2004

He is current on shots and microchipped. 3/28/2004

Homer: approx. 2 yr. old n/m, utd on shots (including bordetella), microchipped. Homer was brought into a humane society as a stray. He appeared to have fleas and some sores on his back, so the HS shaved him. He has recovered from that, as well as entropia surgery (both eyes). He spent his first 10 days in rescue as a guest at a local vet clinic. All the staff fell in love with him. He is very friendly, playful boy who hasn’t had a lot of exposure to living in a house or with other animals. He loves to put his paw on your leg when he is in a sit and to have his belly rubbed. He has been fine with female dogs, but has not been tested around a lot of males yet. He tested fine with the clinic’s cat. He would do best in a home where obedience training is part of the plan, as well as commitment to ongoing socialization. He does need a fenced yard. 3/16/2004

He is very friendly with everyone he meets, but requires a refresher course on obedience as he has been an outside Saint for the past two years. He likes being groomed and has a great personality.

Though she could use an obedience lesson or two to contain that puppy enthusiasm, she’s not the least bit aggressive with children or adults.

Another dog would be okay (depending on the other dog’s disposition) but she’s probably a bit too intense for cats. A fenced yard would be a definite plus. 3/15/2004
FARLEY: Isn’t he handsome? Farley is 18 months old, neutered, UTD on vaccinations, HW negative, and housetrained. This sweet guy came into Rescue because he kept wandering off and apparently his owners were tired of retrieving him from the animal control officer. He’s playful and smart and his fur is SOOOO soft. Currently with a trainer so he can learn some basic obedience skills, Farley will soon be ready for his forever home. He’s good with children and most other dogs, and he doesn’t even appear to mind the occasional cat. Farley will need a secure fenced yard.

Since he has been in rescue he is beginning to response to his name and can sit on command. His former owners thought he had a seizure but he has not shown any signs of seizure since he has been in rescue.

Yifat: Yifat (pronounced “Hifa”) is being fostered by a wonderful volunteer in TN. She will need lots of attention to gain confidence, but will make a wonderful addition to a loving family. She is spayed, heartworm negative and up to date on shots. 2/26/2004
JACKSON: is an 8 month old rough-coat neutered male that is all puppy! Jackson weighs in at around 70 lbs. & is still growing! He is current on all shots and is on heartworm preventative. Jackson is a very sweet boy that just loves to play and get attention! He is housebroken, crate trained, and has had some basic obedience. Jackson needs someone who will continue his education and show him the way. He gets along with other dogs, once he determines that they won’t hurt him. He is a little too interested in cats, so it would probably be best for him not to go to a home with cats. Otherwise he is a wonderful dog that loves belly rubs and chew bones! He will make a great addition to someone’s family! 2/25/2004
CLEO: is about 6 years old, & is a sweet long-haired Saintly girl. She loves people ( hasn’t found anyone she doesn’t like ) and is very gentle. Cleo has always been an outside dog and still is, having stayed in a kennel here in her foster home. She might adjust to living in a home with proper attention. Cleo is quite full of herself & generally will ignore other dogs ( not aggressive per se, i.e., won’t lunge at or attack other dogs ), but close up she wants to be BOSS & insists on the other dog kow-towing to her. Thus , she should go to a home with NO other dogs. She is spayed, utd on her shots, & is heartworm negative. 2/25/2004
Beethoven: is a very handsome, young male Saint Bernard. The vet believes that Beethoven is about 18 months old. Beethoven is a very friendly dog, with lots of personality! He is very smart, and loves to be loved on. One of his favorite tricks is to come up behind you and get between your legs so you have no choice but to stop and pet him! He loves to chew on bones, and gives the sweetest kisses ever. He has now been neutered, brought current on his vaccinations, and is heartworm negative. Beethoven can be full of energy at times, so it will probably be best for him to go to a home without very small children (so he won’t knock them over!). A securely fenced yard is required. Beethoven will be a wonderful addition to the family that is fortunate enough to adopt him! 2/24/2004
Chelsea: Chelsea is 8 years old, has been spayed, is heartworm free and has had all her shots. Please ask about our adoption fee discount for Chelsea.

I love tennis balls and squeaky toys. I am a bit overweight so I need a human that will help me watch my figure. I have been adopted. My parents stopped by Big Dogs on their way to see me and picked up a collar and leash that were donated by Lynne Peedin from Big Dogs that says “It’s Not Easy Being A Princess” somebody has to be, so might as well be me!! They also bought me some toys!!!!! They are awesome! 2/21/2004

Mongo: As you can see by the picture Mongo is a very big boy. He is the saint in the back. Mongo is a long hair, 4 year old, neutered saint He was rescued last year and placed with a family who loved him dearly. Unfortunately the neighborhood where Mongo lived allowed their dogs to run loose. Mongo is not dog aggressive but when an unknown dog comes charging towards his master he will protect. The dog did not get hurt but it was a scary site to see. His adoptive family want the best for him so they put him back into rescue. At the time that Mongo was placed he weighed 150 pounds. I wouldn’t even venture to guess how much he weighs now! He will be going to the vet for a check up so I will know more than. Mongo lived with a 14 year old boy and a tiny 3 pound Yorkshire Terrier. At meal time he would always let his little buddy eat first. Also he was allowed to be loose in the house all day and the worst thing he ever did was sneak up onto the couch when everyone was gone. He doesn’t hear well so he would get caught every time. If you decide to adopt this big fellow you will have to put him on a strict diet! 2/21/2004

Emma: A 14 month, female, smooth coat Saint Bernard. She is house trained, gets along with other dogs, big and small and loves to ride in the car.

She has never been around other types of animals that we know. She is ready to become a valuable member of her new family.

They can go home separately or together. 2/11/2004
Gloria: Gloria is 11 month female rough coat Saint Bernard. A woman contacted us because she came home and found a Saint Bernard who appeared to be dying in her front yard. We rushed over, Gloria was lying in the yard. She wouldn’t move and barely opened her eyes to acknowledge that we were there. We scooped her up and rushed her to our vet. The vet found that Gloria was suffering because her collar had grown into her neck. The vet removed the embedded collar and Gloria immediately responded by eating and drinking as if she was starving! Gloria weighs approximately 85 lbs and could definitely use to gain weight. She displays a slight food aggression, as she was probably hungry for some time. She would make someone a very loving companion. Would you like to give Gloria her forever home. 2/11/2004

He likes to come up to you and gently push his side into your legs until you start petting him. He walks okay on a leash although he may need a little more guidance on not pulling ahead too much Name of dog food Dudley is now on is Science diet He does appear to be a very sweet and gentle boy and is quite a beautiful dog.

Alpine gets along well with other dogs and is always ready for action. He will do well in a home where there is lots of activity and will gladly participate in any activity. He is a fast learner who loves to please you. He learned sit on the second try and learned his name after 2 days in foster care. He will need to have obedience training to manage his enthusiasm and energy. Children large enough to not be knocked over by him would probably LOVE to have Alpine as a member of the family.

Butch: is a two year old smooth coat male Saint Bernard. He is an extremely robust, energetic, high-strung ‘pup’ in a FULL size body. Because Butch was required to stay on a chain with little human interaction he is need of obedience training and socialization. Butch developed ‘cherry eye’ when he was a puppy. His owner sought medical treatment for this condition, although he had good intentions – he found a TERRIBLE veterinarian that literally ‘butchered’ Butch’s eyes. After that occurred his owner then sought a specialist and had two other surgeries done, in attempt to correct the damage done to this dog. After three operations, Butch has full use of his eyes but the appearance can be somewhat unsettling to some people. 1/30/2004

Joey: is a rough coat, 3 year old neutered male that is up to date on all his vaccinations. He came into rescue with a funky rash that is healing very nicely. His skin is also very dry and he is missing his undercoat which could be a sign of hyperthyroid. The skin problems could be related to fleas or an allergy so at this time we are keeping a watchful eye on his skin and will have a thyroid panel done in two weeks. Joey is a real sweetie and when you first meet him he acts very reserved. Watch out because when he gets to know you his true personality comes out. He is like a mischievous little boy . He loves to take my slippers and toss them around and will even take a magazine out of my hands if he thinks I am not showing him enough attention. Joey also likes to mouth you when he is happy. He is learning that this is inappropriate play and is trying very hard to please his foster mom. Joey gets along well with other dogs and has been raised with a cat. He walks nicely on a leash but every once in awhile will cross in front of you or try to get between your legs. He’s a good boy and never tries to pull you when he sees another dog. He is most happy when he can be by his human’s side and is being given hugs and kisses. Joey was raised with little children that were learning how to pet a dog nicely.

DOZER #3: is a delightful four-year-old longhaired male. He is neutered, housetrained, HW-negative, and his vaccinations are current. Dozer’s owner entrusted this handsome guy to our care before moving out of state. He was quite a hit at the groomer’s where he bestowed sloppy kisses on the groomer’s little boy. Dozer is good with other dogs. As for cats, well, he’s quite curious but wouldn’t harm a dog-friendly feline. He likes kids and is fine with strangers. A tall boy, he could use another 12-15 pounds to reach his ideal size. A fence would be a plus. However, we will consider applicants who don’t have a fenced yard but are committed to quality play time and lots of walks. This boy LOVES to walk. 1/22/2004

Chyna: This beautiful smooth coat girl is just 18 months old. She was found running as a stray and was never claimed. She is great with other dogs and cats. She has a very laid back personality yet loves to play with the best. She is a couch potato and quite a lover! 1/21/2004
Charlie: This lovable man was left abandoned at a boarding facility. His owners failed to pick him up and after living there more than a month the facility decided that they must find him a home or euthanize him. Luckily, he found us and now we need to help him find a new forever home. He is great with other dogs and loves everyone! Charlie is 6 years old.

He is looking for a permanent loving, forever home. Can you find a place in your heart? 1/21/2004
CHESTER: is a 4 1/2 year old rough-coat male, with a sweet disposition. On the smaller side, weighs about 100lbs current on all shots and on heartworm preventative, & is neutered. Probably would do well in a house with no cats, but gets along with other dogs. Shows no aggression towards them whatsoever. Loves to sit quietly and be petted and enjoys his chew bones! Is housebroken and seems to do well when left alone, but does enjoy listening to the radio when he’s alone. Has some skin allergies that caused some hair loss but he is on medication and his hair is coming back in nicely. Loves to go for car rides, and does pretty well on a leash, only tugs a little sometimes. Needs someone who will re-teach him the basic obedience commands and show him with love! He will make a great family companion. 1/21/2004
SAMPSON: is a 7 month old rough-coat male. He weighs in at 94 lbs. & is still growing! Sampson is neutered, current on all shots, has been heartworm tested, and is on flea & heartworm preventative. We are working on housebreaking him. Sampson gets along very well with other dogs & he just adores cats too! He walks really well on a leash, & rides great in the car. Sampson knows a few commands like “Stop”, “No”, & “Sit”. This boy is a very quiet & mellow guy. He loves to chew on his rawhides! We prefer Sampson to go to a home with a doggie buddy, because he really enjoys the companionship, when his human family is not home. Sampson does have hip displasia, that is why he was dumped at a shelter, because his previous owners did not want a defective dog. We have him on maintenance medications such as Glucosimine, Vitamin E, a Multi-Vitamin, & a good diet. Since his bones are still growing, he will not be able to get any type of surgery until he is 2 years of age. He also goes on daily walks, but the best exercise regiment for him would be swimming. Swimming is low impact on the joints & really tones up the muscles. So if you are interested in adopting this extremely sweet guy, give me a call! 1/21/2004
SPOTZ: is a 10 month old rough coat male. He weighs in at around 100lbs. & is still growing! Spotz is current on all his shots, has been heartworm tested, & will be neutered prior to his adoption. He is housebroken & is mostly crate trained. Spotz is in need of some basic obedience training, & is learning quickly while in foster care. He now knows “Sit”, & is learning to walk on a lead. This guy is all puppy & just loves to run & play! Spotz is good with other dogs, & goes to people easily. He would be good in a home with older children, just because he would have the “bowling ball” effect on toddlers. He is not very aware of his size yet! Spotz is a very fun & playful guy. He is very alert & quite active too. No hip issues here! This guy runs up & down steps like there’s no tomorrow and is very agile. Spotz also loves to give kisses , & will fall asleep while getting belly rubs! Spotz will make a great family pet. 1/21/2004

BEETHOVEN 3: This handsome fellow is a friendly 11 month old roughcoat. He’s neutered, up to date on shots, and HW-negative.

Chester: is an 18 month old neutered male that was found as a stray. He is full of energy so he will need a family that loves to walk and play. He gets along well with other dogs but cats are unknown. Chester does know his basic commands but will try to see what he can get away with. He is learning that jumping on people is not a nice way to greet them but he is so enthusiastic when making new friends that he just can’t help himself. UP-DATE; Chester needs a boy he can call his own. He loves to wrestle, chase his tail, and play ball. He will be in your face and relentless until you play with him. His obedient training is going well and he has not had any accidents in the house so I am secure in saying that he is housetrained. Chester is a moocher so don’t leave any food around unattended or it will mysteriously disappear. 1/5/2004
Max: max is a one year old longhair, and is neutered and up to date on shots he is a very calm sweet loving boy, great with other dogs and always ready to love and get loved but max also has a mild form of displasia many saints can live their lives with a mild form and not show any discomfort and live a long healthy life despite it. 1/4/2004

Xander: is a four-year old rough male Saint who is in need of a loving home. Xander’s owner is ill and unable to give Xander the time and attention that she feels he is entitled to. He is a beautiful dog who is good with kids, and is friendly. He doesn’t have a lot of experience with other dogs. His shots are up to date. He is not neutered, but will be before he is placed in a forever home. Xander is housebroken, and spends his days between the house and the yard. He could use a loving family who would like to play with him in the yard, and take him for walks and outings. He does walk on a leash, but pulls somewhat, as he needs some more practice with this skill. Xander will only be adopted to a home with a fenced-in yard. 1/3/2004
