Rook - Beagle Male Dog For Adoption in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

Dog Breed: Beagle. Adoption Fee: 600.

Meet Rook ️ Rook is a Ridglan laboratory research survivor whose first year of life left him understandably fearful of people and unsure of how to simply be a dog. But underneath that fear is the sweetest, playful little guy who so badly wants to trust, love and enjoy life. After four months with his foster family, Rook is making progress and showing more and more of that happy, joyful dog inside him — but his journey isn't finished. His forever family will need to understand that earning Rook's trust will take time, patience and commitment. He isn't a dog who will walk into a new home and immediately settle in as a typical family pet. Rook absolutely LOVES other dogs, large and small, and will need a confident, gentle yet playful canine companion who can continue to show him that the world is a safe and fun place. He is housetrained using a doggie door and will need a securely fenced yard where he can safely play and explore. He would do best in a calm household; if there are children in the home, they should be mature and respectful. Unfortunately, we cannot place this dog in a home with toddlers. Research dogs often startle easily and may struggle with the unpredictable movements and sounds of young children. Rook is still learning to trust people and isn't yet comfortable being approached for affection. We are still working on leash training. His adopter will need to give him the time he needs to progress at his own pace. For the right family willing to give him that time and security, Rook has so much potential. His adorable playfulness is already shining through, and we believe that as his confidence grows, so will the love he's been waiting his whole life to share. Most dogs experience some regression when transitioning to a permanent home. With research dogs, this adjustment period can be more pronounced. Please be prepared to offer extra patience and understanding as they settle in. Adoption fee is $600 which helps cover all of the medical for all of the dogs in the rescue. All dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and micro chipped and many have received further treatment for such conditions as lump removal, severe ear infections, dental cleanings, bloodwork, leg injuries, etc.. We do out of state adoptions but require a submitted application, a home visit (sometimes we cannot get this done and then we can not adopt), and the adopter must come to Las Vegas to meet the potential dog(s), possibly adopt, and then drive the dog back.
