Description:
Poor Gus had such a terrible life, til a few months ago. Dumped at a shelter, skin and bones, with no muscle mass, and mild HW, this poor boy might have only had a few more months to live, if things stayed as they were. Thank heaven a good sameritan brought him to an SC shelter, and we took it from there. A foster nursed him back to health, kept him calm through his HW treatment, and showed him all sorts of love and attention. She states he is one of the best dogs she has ever fostered, in all her years of helping. Gus is now about 53 lbs (up from about 37), has lots of muscle tone, hw treated, totally vetted, and so ready for a home of his own. We believe he is under 4 years old. He is great with everyone he meets, other dogs, and we can cat test. He is such a handsome boy, and so pitiful looking in the last photo, which was how he looked when he arrived at the SC shelter, months ago. Gus is awesome and so much more handsome than these photos show. A must meet, for he will steal your heart for sure. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER (Pregnant Dog Rescue) is a private, in home, all breed rescue facility. We exist only on the kindness of your donations and adoptions! We pride ourselves on being an HOLISTIC center and feed only holistic foods and various vitamins and supplements to all of our dogs. LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER dogs are well socialized, very friendly, and in wonderful health. We stand by our pups/dogs, and give 10 days for a refund and almost always take our dogs back at any age of their lives (often depends on dog)! LMAC has an application screening process. All applicants are asked to provide vet references, personal references, and a home visit. We pride ourselves in matching up the right dog with the right home. Sometimes this happens quickly and sometimes it might take awhile. We hope you understand and are willing to wait for the perfect pup for your situation. We reserve the right to turn applicants down and to change our mind about a suitable match, for we are only concerned about what is best for our dogs. Also note that we arrange our visiting hours around your schedule, as this is a private, in home facility. We respond to all inquiries promptly, so if you have any trouble sending us an email, or have not heard back from us within 24 hours, please, CONTACT US AGAIN and check your spam! (We all know how emails can be at times!) Our dogs are spayed or neutered (if old enough), up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested, and free of fleas and ticks. We temperament test our dogs and they are all suitable for many family situations. Our dogs are well mannered, know some basic commands, and are usually housebroken within a week of being with us (if old enough). They are in our family/home situation at this time (not in kennels or crates, although most are crate trained) and are worked with daily. All of our dogs do well with other dogs and many do well with cats. Adoption donations vary with age, breed, vetting, and training of the dog, and range from $250 to $695 (most being $595). (We do not tend to place puppies or small dogs with kids under 6 and reserve the right to match who WE feel would be the best homes for our dogs.)
