Meet Dodger

Dodger is a retired athlete, a former ultra runner and long walk enthusiast, who is ready for a much slower paced life. Looking to take a short stroll? Count him in! Dodger is not a fan of being left home alone while you’re out having adventures (or you know, working) so someone with a flexible schedule will be the best match. Dodger needs to be an only dog with a homeowner that is dog experienced. A fenced in yard will be safest for Dodger, and he wouldn’t mind possibly living with some older children (12+ years old). Dodger takes daily meds for pain management (arthritis related) and anxiety, these will need to continue long-term for him. Dodger’s adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip and current vaccinations plus a free obedience class at Cedar Run in Hiawatha. Last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor pets only, be altered and current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes reference and background checks, a vet check and a home visit. Please submit an application for consideration through our website, www. Adopthope.org
