Glad you did that. They deserve the best life available at this point in their life.

That's awesome! What kind of wait are you talking about? Are there any special requirements for having a dog like this? Is she around any other dogs? Sorry for all the questions, but this is very intriguing to me.
Mmmm Hmmm

d.g.ruff The best thing to do is google "Mission K9 Rescue." ( https://missionk9rescue.org) There is an application process which is fully described. Our application was expidited, due to my previous handler experience, so wait times may differ depending on your application as well as the number of dogs they have available. All your other questions will also be answered. After we received word that we were approved, we drove down to Houston and based on our application, they had five dogs picked out that they thought would be a good match. We met them all and then walked the entire rescue and looked at every dog they currently had available. We met each and got their personal story as well as recommendations on adopt or not. Some are "one-handler" recommended, some are awaiting their military handlers to adopt, etc. It was a very pleasant experience. Ulitimately we picked the dog that we thought best fit, or I should say, she picked us. Mission Rescue does everything they can that will work out best for you and best for the dog... Besides their website, they have a facebook page. The resuce folks were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The place was well kept and maintained, the dog enclosures were clean, the dogs had plenty of water, toys, and attention from what we could see during our visit.

Thank you for the reply, sir. I figured a person would need, and require, some previous experience with these types of dogs. But I think it's a wonderful thing you and mission K9 are doing! I follow them on Instagram, I believe it is, but I'm never on Instagram, lol. I'll check out their Facebook page. And thank you again! For the reply and what you're doing with Toi.
Mmmm Hmmm

You do not need any previous experience with these type of dogs. Anyone can adopt. The application contains questions about other animals, children, home and property, etc. This helps them match the dog to your application. The previous handler experience, etc. just expands the list of dogs and helps with their assesment of your application. If you have an interest, don't let a lack of previous handler experience keep you from enjoying one of these deserving retired vets......
