Adopted: Monkey

Breed: St. Croix Island Dog Gender: Male Age: 3 months! Size: Currently 20 pounds, maybe 50 – 60 full-grown? Good with… Dogs? Yes! Cats? Not yet tested Kids? Not yet tested Hi! My name is Monkey and I am such a happy pupper! History Monkey came all the way from St. Croix where he was a homeless pup, living in the end of a pipe at a dump. No Mama Dog was seen with him, we don’t know how he got there or what his history was but we are pretty sure it was sad. Some dogs are dropped off at the dump, some find their way there with other dogs, some are born there. He just showed up one morning, in that pipe, barking at anyone who came close to him. He was clearly scared and trying to protect his space. Two wonderful Dog Rescue folks,  Katie Nelson of…

Yes, 9+ Hi, my name is Cooper and I am SUCH A GOOD BOY!!! History I was bounced around a bit as a little pup, getting some love and care with some teenagers who were doing their best to take care of me. The second teen’s family said I could live with them, but had to stay outside 24/7 because one of their family members is allergic to dogs. They were nice, but I didn’t love being outside all the time, too much time alone, and autumn was here and it was getting COLD! The next-door neighbor saw me out there in the cold, and was having none of it. The same family had had a former dog live outside for its entire life, and it…
