Meet Ireland, a spirited 8.5-year-old German Shepherd Dog mix weighing in at 45 pounds. Despite having been discarded, his heart is as big as they come, ready to share love and joy with his new family. Ireland is fully house and kennel trained, and his leash manners are commendable. He enjoys the company of friendly dogs and is good with dog-savvy cats. Older, respectful kids can be great companions for him, but young children may be overwhelming. Outdoor playtime is a favorite, yet he equally enjoys a cozy snuggle. Ireland dreams of a loving home with a privacy-fenced yard. If you think you could be the perfect fit, submitting an application is the first step to meeting him and experiencing his happy little jig. The adoption fee is $75, which includes his spay, up-to-date vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip. If you’re interested in adopting Ireland, head to the Rescue One website to fill out the application. Remember, dogs are pack animals and should be part of the family. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
