History: We recently received a plea to help in an overcrowded area where shelters are full to the brim and needing help urgently. Whether unclaimed or no longer wanted, they now have a loving home here at CHDR until they each find a forever home of their very own!
A Note from the Foster: If you want a sweet and faithful companion, this girl is it! She loves to see you every morning, greeting you with a whole-body waddle and waiting for all the attention you can give her. She eats well and is ready to go outside and do her business. From there she's ready to be a lap dog, or trusty work companion, snoozing in a bed beside you. We have started walking the neighborhood on a leash. She walks with a purpose and is very curious. She may need some time leash training.
Once she settled into our home, she got along really well with our 8 year old resident dog. She’s also met some other dogs and played well with them. She seemingly gets along well with men and women equally, but may take some time to get to know strangers; however, once she realizes you’re her person, she’ll never leave your side.
Adoption Fee: $560 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
