Wow!!! Meet Sasha, an incredibly sweet large breed puppy. Yes, this little dog rescue has a large breed puppy! (don’t ask…lol…) She is going to be HUGE!! We are thinking 80-120 lbs but this is not a guarantee of weight, she could be more or less!  She is an active puppy who loves to play with the other pups in her foster home and of course, like any puppy, likes to chew on things. Do you like happy playful dogs? Are you looking for a constant companion? If so, Sasha might just be your girl!!! 

Sasha is a 3 month old Bernese Mountain Dog with boundless energy and a desire to please her human. As you can see, she’s a beautiful tri-color pup, and even more stunning in person. While today she tips the scales at 18 pounds, she’s going to be a BIG girl when she grows up… and…..be ready for the food bills because she LOVES to eat!  Just coming in to VIP Rescue she has already shown that she’s really smart. It took mere minutes to master playing with the doggies at her foster home. Once she settles in a bit, we’ll start to work on potty training. She picks up anything and everything that is in front of her, so she will need age appropriate puppy chew toys and a quick human to take rocks, twigs and anything out of her mouth that she finds outside! After playtime, she will settle down in a soft puppy bed or the nearest lap to relax. Please remember, puppies require ALOT of time, patience and consistency, especially in potty training. She has started leash walks, this is a work in progress. Also, don’t forget, they can be “curious” so you’ll need to puppy proof your home as well for her safety. She will need a home with watchful eyes to make sure she doesn’t get into things she is not supposed to. A work from home family, or one who only works away from the home for just a few hours a day will be given preference.  She will need someone who can commit to walks and mental enrichment including training and toys.  Give her attention and you will be rewarded with a puppy full love and affection.  She requires a single family home with a secure fenced yard, being a Large Breed she needs a large fenced yard area to live and play, she will not be a match for a condo or apartment.    One of the most unique features of Bernese Mountain Dogs is their lush, double-layered coat. This thick fur adds to their striking appearance, and the outer layer of their fur is either straight or slightly wavy and lengthy, while the underlayer is dense and soft. Their beautiful black, white, and rust tricolor pattern further enhances their majestic look. Regular grooming is important to maintain the beauty of their coat, requiring brushing several times a week and occasional baths to prevent matting and tangling.

Sasha will be spayed soon, is already microchipped, and current on her age appropriate vaccinations as well as her heartworm and flea prevention.  VIP Rescue reserves the right to approve or disapprove adoption applications submitted based on each dogs specific needs. If your adoption application is approved, you will be required to travel to the dogs foster home to meet the dog.

Adoption Requirements: You must be a Florida resident, and be at least 25 years of age to adopt.

Willow / Myakka City

Available for adoption

www.VIPRESCUE.org

Breed: Standard Poodle

Age: 2.5 yr DOB 1-13-2023

Sex: Female

Weight: 50 lb

Color: White

Gets along with DOGS: Yes

Gets along with Cats: No

Kids: Respectful 13+ with dog experience

Fenced Yard: Yes, 6 ft or higher secured fenced in yard is required.

Meet Willow, a super friendly, 2 1/2 year old 50lb. girl that acts like your typical 2 year old standard poodle, active and on the go!

Her ideal home would consist of active adults who can commit to several walks or a run, and games at least a couple times a day. We think Willow could do great at something like FastCat ( a timed 100 yard dash for dogs where they chase a lure down a straight course) or agility. We recommend that there be no young children, tiny dogs, or cats in the home because littles move quickly and startle her, and she’s also not aware of her size and can play a little rough. She’d love a committed family who is able to do more training with her. She is smart as a whip and has a ton of potential. Although friendly, she is a little skittish at first but does warm up and it will take a couple of days for her to get used to her new family and surroundings, so Willow’s new home must have the time and patience with her.

Willow is great on a leash, and is always up for adventures. She has been taken to busy activities and does well. She also does well with other dogs medium size and larger. She’s doing well with training and knows sit, stay, come, fetch, hoop (jump through) and again, would benefit with some additional training both mentally and physically to help burn off some of her high energy. She loves to play outside, she gets the zoomies and loves to play with and in water. Willow’s new home is required to have at least a 6ft or higher secured fenced in yard, sorry, there are no exceptions, because this is what she needs due to her energy level and safety. Willow is very playful, however she does get fearful with strangers at first (barks and backs away) until she feels comfortable.

One more thing to consider if you’re interested in adopting this fabulous gal, is the cost of grooming. She’ll require regular Grooming, which can be costly, so please keep that in mind as part of your budget. Willow is completely housebroken, spayed, microchipped, current on her vaccinations, and is on heartworm and flea prevention as well.

So, what do you think? Do you have the time, patience and energy to keep up with our amazing Willow? If you’d like to add her to your family, please visit www.viprescue.org to fill out an adoption application.

Gorgeous George / Redington Beach

Available for adoption

www.VIPRESCUE.org

Breed: Poodle mix

Age: 3 yr

Sex: Male

Weight: 15 lb

Color: Cream

Gets along with Dogs: yes

Gets along with Cats: Unknown

Kids: Respectful 8+ with dog experience

Gorgeous Geroge. Looking at the pictures, you can understand why he has the name he does. His crazy underbite is the cutest ever!

George is an amazingly handsome 3 year old 15lb Poodle mix boy. This sweet guy didn’t have such a good start to life. He came to us from a good Samaritan that saw his post as “Free Dog” on craigslist. Ugh. What he’s finding out is he has just hit the doggie jackpot here at VIP Rescue! We started off with a spa day.. lol, where he received a much needed groom, as his hair was overgrown and very matted. Then came the “bubbles”. He loved every minute of it! After a few days of rest and recuperation, he headed to the “Dogtor” for a neuter, a dental, heartworm test (yeah negative) and had all his vaccinations that were needed. Then back to the foster home for some rest and more recuperation. After a few days in his foster home he became the friendly, relaxed, happy pup that he is.

This sweet boy loves leash walks and couch cuddles. As of now he’s not a toy fan but he does love dog beds and food. One thing we have discovered is he is a little food protective, so If there is any food in his bowl, please let him finish before you take the bowl. Because he’s on the skinny side we can totally understand why he’s protective when he gets his food bowl. He most likely had to fight for his meals in his previous life. He is also house trained as long as long as he’s let out frequently.

George is looking for a home where the humans are home more often than not, he does ok when he’s left alone for short periods of time. Due to the recent changes in his life recently, he is looking for a home where there are patient humans that will give him the time he needs to adjust. He is starting to play with the other foster dogs in the home so another furry playmate would be preferred. He can get vocal when new people come into the home or neighborhood doggies walk by the house, so he would do best in a single-family home, no condos or apartments. He is also vocal on his walks when there is another dog headed toward him, he gets excited to meet other neighborhood pups and he stops barking once they meet or pass by. George is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, has had a dental and is on his heartworm and flea prevention. Please keep in mind the costs to groom him, usually every 8-10 weeks, can range from $60-$120/per grooming. He is most definitely ready to find his “fur” ever home, could that be yours?

Does George sound like a good fit for you and your home?? If you’d like to add this little cutie to your family, please visit www.viprescue.org to fill out an adoption application.
