Fridays Rescue Dog

I was only going to feature one rescue dog a week, but this guy is so cute that I couldn't wait until Monday!
                                                                         Hi I'm Drake!

How cute is this guy! I have a huge soft spot for German Wirehaired Pointers, those whiskers make me melt!
Remember that just because they are cute doesn't mean they are the right pooch (or breed) for you. DO YOUR RESEARCH first! Lots of these dogs end up in shelters or rescues because their families say the "got to big", "need to much exercise" or "are to hyper". They do require daily exercise. If you are looking for a lazy companion dog this is probably not the breed for you.

Here's what the shelter had to say about Drake:

Drake is a beautiful German Wirehaired Pointer that was brought to the shelter because his owners had to move and sadly could not take him with. He has lived with another dog and cats as well as children as young as 10. Drake loves attention and will gladly roll over so that you can rub his belly. Breed research is suggested for this guy as he has some very common pointer personality traits. Drake has had little training and will need a home where he can learn and play. If you think you have the right home for this wonderful dog then come by the shelter and adopt him today! Drake's adoption fee of $85 includes his microchip ID, neuter, vaccines and a whole lot more!

To learn more about Drake check out the Humane Society of central Oregon.
