Whiskey

Whiskey was born at BCAR in March 2021 as part of a litter of six. The other pups all found homes, but Whiskey has spent almost his entire life – 900 days - in the shelter. Why has this handsome guy, a volunteer favorite, who makes your heart melt when he nuzzles up to you with eyes closed to savor pets and ear rubs, and is called “smart, loving, playful and obedient” spent almost every day of his life in a kennel? Whiskey needs more exposure to learn that all of these things are not going to hurt him. If someone took Whiskey home and let him settle for 30-40 days, he would make a great pet.” This sweet pup can be shy around strangers, but once you give him head and belly rubs and play his favorite tug-of-war game with him, he looks at you with such love it melts your heart. Whiskey is a great walking buddy and is the best loose-leash walker at the shelter. Whiskey’s ideal adopter is someone who loves a big dog with heart, is patient and willing to give Whiskey a couple of months to trust and come out of his shell at home before exposing him to the outside world. Someone who likes an active companion to walk and play with – but also loves quiet, calm time giving belly rubs and back scratches in exchange for unconditional love. All BCAR dogs are placed as indoor family pets. No electric fences, please. Visit pets every Saturday 11:00 am to 2:00 pm (706-268-1346) or visit our website for adoption information at www.bigcanoeanimalrescue.org.
