Chesapeake Bay Retriever - Large - Adult - Male - Dog - TAB (JA)
Description
TAB is a pretty boy who needs his own home!! He's so loving with people and everyone he comes in contact with, except canine buddies - he's okay with them but prefers to not be around them - should be in an only dog home! He would be a fantastic dog for someone (or couple) that is retired or working from home - he's what we call a mama's or daddy's boy-prefers human contact at all times if possible!!! More info coming on Tab - he's a good size boy, approx. 80 lbs or so. Heartworm negative, up to date on vaccination and he's neutered to boot! Once we have more info, we will update this bio but if you're interesed before we have a chance, email: joanne@pawsnewengland.com Donation: $275.00 inclusive of transport! Interested in adopting??? Please visit our website and complete an online adoption application. http://www.pawsnewengland.com PAWS of New England is not shelter but a rescue and thus is not funded by any city or state organization - we rely solely on the donations of our adopters to help defray the costs associated with saving these precious lives. We are often asked, "Why would you charge "so much" for a rescue pet? Why not just place it in a good home?" The answer is because we need adopters who are willing to support all rescue pets, not just the dog they adopt. A young, healthy dog might cost us $150-400 in (discounted) vet care, and many people will want to adopt it. An older one with health issues can easily cost $500-1500 in veterinary expenses, and it may require months of foster care for rehabilitation; yet we can only ask a minimal adoption fee, and it may be a long time until anyone comes forward to adopt it. Fees from the younger, more adoptable dogs help offset the cost of caring for the others. Most of our dogs have a sad story to tell, and some have suffered through years of neglect or abuse. We hope that you too are willing to give an opportunity for a better life to ALL of our dogs by supporting them through adoption fees. Without these funds, our rescue efforts would not be possible.
