Hi folks, I'm Abner. Folks around here tell me I'm a ruggedly handsome mountain cur mix, whatever that means. The doc said I'm still a pup, maybe 9 months old and 35 lbs and nearly full grown. Then he put me to sleep and next thing you know I wake up without my "family jewels". Rude. I love other dogs and love to play. The people I met before I came to this rescue place weren't always nice to me, but everyone here has been so nice and they keep me warm and safe and fed. They introduced me to toys, which I LOVE! Turns out people are cool. I just need a little time to get to know you. If you really want to be my best friend, you'll keep a pocket full of treats for me. I would love to find a home with another dog buddy to run with and a physically fenced yard. If you want to meet me, fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org and tell 'em you want to meet Abner. I'll be hanging out at PetSmart Eastgate Saturday noon-2 for something called an adoption event. They say it's fun and I'll meet nice people.
