Please read about our adoption process prior to applying for any animal with us.

Our website has information about our rescue, adoption process and link to our adoption application www.collarofhope.org

 We are a foster home based rescue and have no facility to visit.
 Prior to adoption, our animals are spay/neutered, vaccinated including rabies/age appropriate, microchipped and parasite treated/prevented as a minimum.

Please go to our website for all specific information about this dog.  Our info doesn't transfer over to the adoption sites.  

Ellis came to us with his partner Ennis.  We don't know if they're related or just were from the same home.  What we do know is that they lived an extremely neglected life.  They appeared to have never been groomed before.  They were so matted, the fur on a few legs had turned to casts that had to be removed with a surgical blade.  They both have broken teeth also.  We believe they lived outside their entire lives in the past.  We pulled them from a shelter so have no history.  Just deductions from their initial condition and getting to know them.  Speaking of that.  They were a little shy at first but remained so sweet despite their past!  
Initially we thought we'd have to find a home for them together but believe they'd eventually thrive with one-on-one attention from their own families.  They may be a little lost without the other initially, but they'll come around.  They are not leash trained so a securely fenced yard is mandatory.  
Due to lack of grooming experience, they'll need a good groomer who can continue to work with them with the process.  If you submit our adoption application, please note your groomer and their phone number on the application.  

Prior to adoption, our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and parasite treated/prevented.
