This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Whiskey's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** You know that saying it's 5 o'clock somewhere? Well meet Whiskey, a 2 and-a-half-year-old Rottweiler mix, weighing 75 pounds (as of 2/11/26). This boy was rescued from a shelter in Tennessee that was going to put him down because the facilities were too small! We're so glad we have a chance to give him a better life here in New England! He's looking forward to meeting his future fur-ever family! Whether he's neat or on the rocks, Whiskey is the perfect companion for anyone having a hard day. This lover boy is so sweet and affectionate, you'll instantly forget about your annoying coworkers once you stare into his beautiful eyes. Whiskey prides himself in being loyal too, he'll never leave your side. In fact, you might even find him sleeping on top of you! Which is really his own way of telling you to leave that toxic job behind. The future may be unknown, but Whiskey is right there with you! This boy's good on leash, housebroken and crate trained. It's the perfect trifecta! He loves to give kisses and will always protect his people. He enjoys playing with other dogs and is currently living in a house with 30 dogs (the smallest one being 35 pounds). While he's only met kids on walks, he's sure to be intrigued by those tiny humans. He hasn't had experience with cats yet but he hopes they'll like him too! Whiskey currently doesn't know any commands, but with the right family by his side, he'll learn everything from English to Mandarin because he's that ambitious! In terms of medical history, he does have hair missing on his back due to a flea allergy when he was first found. The vet has prescribed vitamins (including vitamin E) to help with the dryness of his skin. While his skin and fur look great now, he hopes his future family will help support his healing and supplement his food with salmon oil or similar supplements. He's had a rough beginning and he just wants to be the healthiest he can be for you! Whiskey's life was saved so he could have a better shot at finding the right home! Bring this affectionate boy home today and get ready for every hour to be happy hour! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
