4/26/12 Update-OK.  Keeper here, I figure it’s time for me to speak for myself.  I am a three year old Boxer-plott hound mix, ya know one of those “designer” dogs….a Box-o-Plott! I had another photo-shoot the other day, so take a look at my new pics! I am completely finished with my heartworm recuperation and now ready for adoption. Here I am smiling!. 

Look at my great smile!

I love to just trot around the yard and take in everything. We’ve been working on breaking me from the jumping thing.  I’m doing better at that, but sometimes its a little hard for me to keep all 4′s on the ground! Soon, we’re going to add a frisbee to my toy box….not sure what we do with it, but hey, if my foster family thinks it’ll be fun for me, I’m game! I’ve never had an accident in my foster home….EVER! I am completely housebroken, current on my vaccines, neutered and DONE with heartworm treatment! I feel like a new Canine!                                                                                                                                                                              

The three things I like to do the best are: play with toys, get a belly-rub (check out the new pic), and get brushed!  I listen really well.  ”No” means “No” in my book. 
Stop, drop & roll for the Belly Rub!

I listen real well because I want to make my people proud.  I’m a happy guy.  When I first came to rescue, I was given a peanut butter Kong every night at bedtime….I really enjoy that and hope that continues when I get a fur-ever home.  I run right to my crate when I see that Kong.  I chew on it for about 10 minutes and then my foster family says, they hear me snoring! When I’m out of the crate, if you just leave the door open, I’ll mosey in there every now and then just to take in a snooze. I am fine as an only dog.  I don’t need other dogs to play with. I am very content to occupy myself with toys, and attention from my people.  My foster family says if I were a human, I would be the one that is just smiling all of the time.  I am very strong and would do best in a home with teenagers.  I wouldn’t want to accidently hurt a young child. There was a gathering at my foster home over the weekend and everyone I met, just thinks I’m so, so handsome, happy and fun! Ya know what?  If you meet me, you’ll see exactly what they mean. Who knows I may even have this frisbee thing down and we can play frisbee too! Please call (856) 889-0832 or email fassasfriends@gmail.com if you have any questions.  If you’d like to meet me, please complete an application at the top of the page under the Adoption Tab! Thanks and hope to meet you soon!  Keeper

3/5/2012 Update:  This guy would make a great family member in any family!!  Keeper is just a total pleasure.  He is such an easy guy; anything goes with him.  He loves to play with toys, either with you or if you’re not available for toy-play…without you.  He is completely housebroken and crate trained.  Give him a peanut butter kong at 10 p.m. and you’ll hear a few licks and he’s asleep for the night. Keeper listens so very well.  He doesn’t mind a bath at all and loves to be brushed.  Infact when you begin brushing him, he thinks your lap is the place he should sit.   He has gained some weight and looks great. Keeper is neutered and current on all vaccines.   Keeper isn’t the most photogenic dog, however he is absolutely gorgeous in person! Keeper does well with dogs over 25 lbs.  He has no interest in jumping a fence or babygate.  He is perfectly content to remain on the side he is placed.  Keeper will do best in a home with teenagers.  He will be undergoing heartworm treatment this week and we will keep you updated. If you’re looking for a super great dog, look no further!  Keeper is your guy!  He is a family favorite in his foster home!  If you hesitate and allow Keeper to slip through your hands, you’ll probably be sorry you did!

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Please meet Fassa’s Friend, Keeper!  His name is fits him perfectly.  Once you meet him, you’ll know he’s a “keeper” for sure!  He was taken from his former  owner by Animal Control, due to neglect.  He was chained outside and was not being fed daily.Keeper is housebroken. Our volunteer, Denise has stated Keeper is the smartest dog she has ever seen, and she should know,having been involved with rescue dogs for 20+ years! She has been able to teach him various tricks in only a matter of  10-15 minutes!  Keeper’s intelligence and unique coloring and markings certainly place him in a class of his own! Keeper is non-responsive to cats and other dogs.  He enjoys his walks and human contact.  He is an anything goes kind of dog and would make anyone a great companion!  We will keep you updated on Keeper’s progress. 

Keeper is current on his vaccines and will be undergoing the beginnings of heartworm treatment this week.  Since we have not yet seen Keeper’s interaction with young children, we are not able to place him in a home with children under 10 years old at this time.  Once completely filled out, Keeper should weigh somewhere in the 70 lb range.  If you are interested in meeting Keeper, Fassa’s Friends “Dog Genius,” please complete an adoption application found under the Adoption tab at the top of this page.  He is a terrific guy in search of a home that will appreciate his easy disposition and phenomenal level of intelligence!
