You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Allow us to introduce Ceazer, a handsome 2.5-year-old Shepherd/Mastiff blend who is looking for the "happily ever after" he truly deserves. Weighing in at a sturdy 75 pounds, Ceazer is a big, lovable boy with an even bigger story. He came to us as a transfer from the Cedar Rapids Animal Care and Control shelter, as they often operate at full capacity and reached out looking for help with placing some of their adoptable dogs. Ceazer was considered their longest-term resident. Hearing that this sweet soul has waited for several months pulled at all of our heartstrings, and we knew we had to help him find his perfect match!
Before his time in the shelter, Ceazer lived in a loving home, but he was sadly surrendered when his previous family lost their housing and could no longer care for him. Because of his history, we know he is a seasoned pro at house life. He previously lived with older children and did wonderfully, and he has also lived successfully with another dog. While he’s a social guy, we do require a scheduled meet-and-greet with any resident dogs in your home to ensure everyone is a perfect match before finalizing an adoption.
Don't let his size intimidate you—Ceazer is a total gentleman on the leash and is described by our volunteers as a "great walker". When he isn't out for a stroll, he loves a good game of fetch and is always eager to show off his smarts; he already knows sit, shake, and down!
He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all his vaccinations, making him more than ready to trade his kennel for a cozy living room and start his next great adventure as your new best friend.
Please submit an online adoption application for Ceazer if you're interested in setting up a meet & greet appointment. Once the application has been submitted, a Safe Haven volunteer will be in contact to discuss the next steps.
