Welcome to Rescues That Rock! In partnership with CARE Animal Rescue and Springfield’s rock station, Q102, we’re on a mission to help find forever homes for some amazing dogs who truly “rock!” Each week, we’ll feature a special dog available for adoption right here on our website and across our social media channels.

Even if adoption isn’t an option right now, you can still help us make a difference. By sharing these profiles on your social media pages, you’re spreading the word and helping these wonderful dogs get noticed—and closer to finding their perfect family. Together, let’s help these dogs find the loving homes they deserve!

Meet Nugget!

At 2 years old, this black and white Lab mix is more than just a snack-sized name – Nugget is a full serving of love and loyalty! He’s got that wonderful balance of youthful playfulness and sweet maturity, making him the kind of dog who’s just as happy to romp around as he is to curl up beside you.

Nugget’s goofy grin and big heart shine brightest when he’s with people he loves. Loyal, affectionate, and always ready for a cuddle, he’s searching for a forever family who will appreciate his gentle spirit and playful side. In return, he’ll be your constant companion, walking buddy, and snuggle partner for life.

Could Nugget be the missing piece of your family’s happy meal?

He’s currently loving life in a foster home! To schedule a time to meet him in person, please fill out a quick “Match Me” form online at: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/CAST/Dog to be pre-approved!
