Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Janet Delacruz, Iggy’s foster mom and rescuer, will have Iggy available to meet at Petsmart Yorba Linda (5521 Mirage street) from 2 pm until 4 pm on Saturday November 12 . If you are wondering why it is taking so long to meet her, an explanation is provided below.
• Izzy was roaming the streets of Thermal for over 1 month before rescued by volunteer and foster mom Janet DelaCruz
• Hungry and scared, this was a traumatic and stressful experience for Izzy.
• She does not walk well on a leash because she has never been walked on a leash.
She is fragile and (I believe) wounded and tender in spirit. For this reason, I suggest we move slowly to provide a small measure of recovery time, not just physically.
• It's important for prospective adopters to understand Izzy will require patience, confidence building and training in a delicate manner. If not up for this challenge, best to seek another dog.
• She will NOT immediately be will suited for high stimulus scenarios, dog parks, the dog beach or immediate socialization with the dogs of neighbors, friends and family.
There is no doubt in my mind - Izzy will evolve into a well adjusted, spirited loving dog. Nevertheless, I do not want to overwhelm her further by exposing her –too soon-- to a gathering of prospective applicants.
If you wish to confirm Iggy will be available to meet at Petsmart, Yorba Linda, from 2 – 4 pm on Saturday, November 12, please feel free to give me a call.
If you are interested in meeting any Poochmatch dog at our weekly adoption event on Saturdays at the Petsmart in Yorba Linda, CA (5521 Mirage St.) between 1 and 5 PM, please fill out an application from our website, poochmatch.com, and return it via email to poochmatch@hotmail.com no later than 11 AM on Fridays. Due to the high volume of dogs and puppies in our foster homes, it is impossible to bring them all every Saturday. The only way to ensure that the dog that you are interested in will be at the adoption event is to FILL OUT AN APPLICATION. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that the dog you are interested in will be at our adoption event. If you cannot make the time frame of our events, appointments can be made at another time and location solely at the discretion of the foster mom.
All adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, necessary vaccinations, fecal testing and deworming. Adoption fees vary solely based on age and size.
