About Arlo/Bart
  • Status: Adopted!
  • Adoption Fee: 250.00
  • Species: Dog
  • General Color: Brindle with White
  • Current Age: 8 Years 6 Months (best estimate)
BART is a 1 yr old cutie patootie who was surrendered with 3 of his littermates around Christmas of 2015.

Bart is a young, very rambunctious  and spunky guy.  Barts mom is a German Shepherd, dad was a traveling salesman!

This guy needs someone to run and play with on a daily basis. He is very high energy and will need consistant exercise and lots of tummy scratching.

Owners grandmother contacted MOGS member Stephanie Payne via the MOGS phone, told her that

she had 3 puppies she would like to surrender. Turned out there were 4 being surrendered.

Grandmother kept 2 of the puppies and the mother. Her grandson had bred his female

GSD and was obviously trying to sell the puppies, but was deployed before he could sell

them. The mother dog also had been exposed to any number of male dogs while in heat.

The grandson supposedly took the mother to a breeder to be impregnated. When we

asked for pictures to make sure they were GSD’s, the grandmother backpedaled and said

that the momma dog may have been around other dogs. Amanda Higinbothoms sister

graciously accepted our request to help foster the puppies overnight for 2 nights and

helped transport them

If you're looking for a gorgeous, young, trainable furball
who will love you forever,
Bart may be your ideal family member!


Bart's ADOPTION FEE: $250
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

INTERESTED IN ADOPTING Bart?

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.
