Meet Lugar! This BIG handsome 3 year old boy was rescued from Gwinett County Animal Control and is now part of the SSRR family. One of our very experienced volunteers assessed this boy and said: “he was scared at first, but it did not take him long at all to warm up to us. He had the full on Rottie body wiggle going on. He just needs some love and patience and he will be a great dog!! He is going to be a very BIG baby.” She said he is a sweetheart. One of the staff members brought a dog out and walked it by the fence and he was curious, nub wagging... but not too fast.... No signs of aggression

Lugar is at one of our really great boarding facilities, waiting for a foster. Since being there, he has gained some needed weigh. He gets along with all of the dogs he comes in contact with when out walking and shows no aggression at all. At times he is a little timid while you are leashing him and when he is confronted with new situations. He’s a good watch dog and does let you know when there are strangers around.

Lugar is looking for a foster who will give him the love and attention he deserves, until he finds his forever family. If you would like to foster this big baby, please fill out and submit an adoption application today.
