Meet Joey
Boxer/lab mix Age: 11/2020 (4 Years Old) Weight: 60lbs
Joey was born in November 2020 after his mother was rescued from distressing conditions in Tennessee. In January 2021, Joey was adopted, but due to unforeseen family issues, he was unfortunately given up for adoption. He previously lived with children aged 4 and 8 and is gentle with kids of all ages. Joey is an affectionate and sweet boy who brightens everyone’s day. He is full of energy, especially enjoying playing fetch. Joey behaves well on a leash, follows basic commands, is very intelligent, and is eager to learn. He is currently undergoing crate training and making great progress! Introductions with other dogs are necessary for Joey, but he is very sociable. He is neutered, house-trained, and up to date on vaccinations. If you are considering adopting Joey, please check out our website rowquinrescue.org for more details.
Meet Fergie
Pit Bull Age: 3-4 Years Old Weight: 40lbs
Fergie, a former breeding dog, has had numerous litters of puppies. This experience has given her a unique maternal sweetness. She loves toys and especially enjoys playing fetch. While she is still learning manners, she can get a bit enthusiastic during play. Currently, we are assisting her in improving her patience with the help of our trainer. Fergie knows a few commands, is quite intelligent, and is progressing well with her leash training. She pays close attention to instructions and with some treats, she could easily pick up new tricks. Fergie would do best in a home where she is the only pet. Although she could potentially live with older children, proper introductions would be necessary. Fergie has been waiting for a while to find a new home and may require extra time to adjust. If you are considering adopting Fergie, please visit our website at Rowquinrescue.org to complete an adoption application.
Meet Fernando
Pitbull Mix Age: 2-3 Years Old Weight: 100 Ibs
Fernando is a handsome man. He does tend to drool all over himself though. He is fully recovered from his surgery, as he ate his bed, because that is what dogs do sometimes. He is a big boy and once moving, walks very nicely on a leash, but if he wants to drag you over to something or jump up on you, you need to be strong enough to take the hit. He loves car rides and getting ice cream. He does resource guard so do not take anything away from him. Breed experience is a MUST! A pack leader is imperative to his success in a home. A thorough application will be needed and vetted, with a Foster to Adopt clause, prior to any adoptions being approved.
Meet Diego
Labrador Retriever/Mix Age: About 6 Years Old Weight: 65 lbs
Are you ready for a pup that’s a little bit grumpy and a whole lot lovable? Meet Diego, a 6-year-old stud who’s looking for a forever or foster home for the holidays. He’s a bit of a homebody and likes to keep things low-key. No loud parties or rowdy kids for this guy! He’s looking for a quiet home with older kids or mature adults who will appreciate his chill vibe. No other pets, please! He’s not really into sharing the spotlight. Diego knows his basic commands and comes with training.
Meet Quincy
German Sheppard/Mix Age: 3 years Weight: 50 lbs
Quincy was born around Christmas 2021 and soon found himself being given away in a Mississippi Wal-Mart parking lot, along with his 3 siblings. He will thrive with an owner or family that will continue his training. He is a smart boy who is eager to learn and please. Quincy has done a lot of hard work and we want him to maintain all the skills he has learned! Quincy is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands. He would love outdoor activities such as hiking, water play, and car rides. A calm home with regular routines is an ideal environment for Quincy. He would do best with older children or adults who can provide ample exercise, mental stimulation, and consistent boundaries. He is sociable with other dogs, but would be suited best as an only dog as he shows some resource guarding behavior with food. This can be managed, however, through proper guidance from our trainer. Unfortunately, he has a bite history due to his resource guarding of food and unwanted petting from strangers. He requires a well-versed owner who understands dog body language.
Meet Shadow
Pitbull/Mix Age: 6-7 Years Weight: 60 lbs
This handsome boy has had a rough life, but that doesn’t stop him. He loves people and other dogs despite everything. He was left to starve in an apartment for several weeks with minimal visits from people to feed him. He hung on and is now on the road to recovery! He is gaining weight (treatos always make things better), and is getting his itchy skin condition under control. He loves his baths, is a gentleman in the car, takes treats nicely, and just loves to get love. He comes with training and would be a wonderful addition to anyone’s family.
