******Meet Abbey*******


Location:  KC, MO
Age:  Adult
Temperament:  Pending evaluation


Abbey's owners are no longer able to keep her.  This is what they have to say about Abbey:

Abbey is a great dog.  She would be perfect for a couple that can spend more time with her than we can.  She would also do well with a family that has a dog.  She has a great disposition and very loving.  She loves to play ball and take walks.

Probably two years ago, our neighbors (unknown to us) had been tormenting her while she was outside.  Now, although those guys are gone, she still has issues with going in the backyard, unless one of us is with her.  Things would have turned our a lot differently had we been aware of the abuse.

I think a different venue would help her not be so scared to be out.  I also think another dog would make her 'act' like a dog again!

I have her AKC papers and certified pedigree.  I had her in one obedience class when she was a pup.  She is not allowed loose in the house; she is in her kennel in the kitchen.  She is perfectly content there.  Hard to believe, I know.  She would need a fenced yard; she has always had one.  I think she would run if she wasn't confined.

Abbey's adoption fee is $300.  For an explanation of our fees, policies, and what vetting is covered, please visit us at: www.mogsrescue.petfinder.com

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
