ons- drop us an email at infogreatplainsmastiffrescue . If you have questions about our adoption procedures, please go to our Pages of Interest on the left hand column under "Adoption Info." We answer email inquiries almost immediately-usually always within a few hours and phone calls are returned with 24-36 hours. GPMR does not have a shelter. All of our dogs are kept in loving foster homes. We must have a completed adoption application on file before meeting any of our mastiffs. GPMR adopts to the states of Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, Louisiana and parts of Colorado. !!!Any mastiffs being adopted out of the state of Oklahoma require a health certificate to be paid for by the adopter!!! Meet Rook! Rook was found as a stray and ended up in a TX shelter. He was pulled just before his time was up there. Rook was a little scared in the shelter but once we got him out of there, he is a totally different dog! He loves to run and play with the other Mastiff in his foster home. His foster mom has worked on crate training him and he's doing great with his housebreaking. Rook is estimated at 5 years old. He is a gorgeous Apricot boy. Like many of our rescues, he tested positive for heartworms and has completed treatment and is ready for adoption! He weighs 115 pounds. So far he's been as super sweet boy and an easy keeper! However he doesn't like changes in his routine and that can cause him some anxiety. For example his foster mom went out of town and had a petsitter while she was gone. He did great for the petsitter, but started a bit of pacing and panting for a couple of days after his foster mom returned. Rook's ideal home would be one that is very routine oriented and whose family doesn't travel a whole lot. He doesn't do well in boarding situations and would need a petsitter while his family is out of town. We would prefer an adult only home for Rook as the busy behavior of kids would probably be too much for him to handle. He likes a quiet home without much change! Rook is being fostered near DFW, TX.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
