I have a very dear friend whose male recently passed from cancer. She is now ready for a new buddy and since I am not breeding at this time in my life, I am trying to help her find a dog. Excellent temperament and health are the top priorities. Beauty is secondary. This dog will have the ultimate home, believe me. She wants another male any age from puppy to around 2yrs. old. She lives in the Baltimore Maryland area and is looking in a range of about 2 hrs. traveling time if possible. She has not ruled out rescue but has recently had a bad experience with the local rescue agency. Although she passed the house inspection they denied her because she would not transport her 11 yr. old cat to the shelter (2 hrs. away ) to do a cat check with the dogs for adoption. Apparently their own cat was killed by a dog and now they can't check the rescue dogs for cat acceptance. Go figure - guess they really don't want to find homes for their dogs. She has incredible references from her vet as well. Any help will be appreciated. Breeders or rescue services - this is a do die for home. Contact me and I'll forward any info to her.
