Oliver, a Miniature Schnauzer (mix?) was guesstimated to be 9 years old and was definitely overweight at 37 pounds when he was rescued. Someone was being “way too good” to this little fellow. He was recently groomed and has lost some weight so he is really looking good! He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations including bordatella for kennel cough, and tested heartworm negative . Oliver does well with other dogs, walks well on a leash and does well in the car. If you would like to adopt Oliver and provide him with a great retirement home for his golden years, the first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application.
You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers.
After you submit your application please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not meet he/she will be adopted to that home.
Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.
