Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION FOR ADOPTION PROCESS
This sweet boy was less than an hour away from being put to sleep at the Harris County Shelter in Houston. He was completely broken down and stood with his head to the corner. Luckily his life changed in just the nick of time. Patches is a sweet boy looking to travel to WI on 12/12 if there is an awaiting home for him.
We ask that potential adopters complete our pre approval process by beginning with submitting our adoption application. From there, a representative will set up a homevisit. After a successful homevisit, a meet and greet can be scheduled with available dogs.
Our adoption process works a bit different than other shelters and rescues! Paddy's Paws serves as a coordinator for Houston rescues. We send out the applications, arrange home visits and secure back up fosters for each of the dogs that will be transported here. Like most foster-based organizations, we do not have a facility and set up all appointments on an individual basis. Prior to any meet and greets, we require an approved application so we will need to go through all the steps before having you meet any of the available dogs here in Wisconsin.
If you would like to begin the preapproval process, you can visit this link to fill it out: http://bit.ly/1IIlGFS
We start with the completed application and then check references/vet records. The next step is a homevisit with family and one of our representatives. Once we have gathered all this information, we provide it to the Houston team. Then, we can set up a meet and greet with available dogs.
