Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Ms. Lucy was the much loved pet of an older couple. Unfortunately, her owners both became ill, so Lucy found herself in need of a good new home. She is such a sweet girl, goes to everyone, and would make a great pet for loving seniors. Ms. Lucy lived in a nursing home with her owners for a while, and is used to being with older people and medical equipment. She was beloved by the whole staff as well. Lucy is loyal, affectionate, and wags her little tail non-stop. She likes to play with her toys, but is also happy to be a cuddle bug. Lucy could be an only dog. She is potty pad trained, walks on a leash, and goes outside as well. Lucy has a bit of arthritis, takes medicine for a thyroid condition, and her eyes are cloudy, but she gets around well. Can you open your home and your heart to this little girl?
Lucy is a black miniature poodle who weighs 15 pounds, and is 12 years old. Her adoption fee is a donation of your choice, and includes a dental and all of our vetting, below. Lucy is being fostered by Jane and family in Mars, PA. Not all our dogs are totally house trained at the time of adoption. We crate train them or potty pad train and work on potty skills. When your application is approved, you will speak with the foster Mom and can get more information about how far along the foster dog is in potty and social skills. Dogs learn quickly and most are pretty far along or trained by the time of adoption, however you should always expect some adjustment when moving a dog to a new home.
Lucy has been examined by our vet, has had a 5/1 annual shot, a rabies shot and tag, has been dewormed, heartworm tested and passed, and has been spayed or neutered before adoption. Our rescues are on flea/tick and heartworm monthly preventatives in season. We also do a dental if our vet deems it necessary, which is included in our adoption fee. Our adoption fee covers all vetting expenses and a small donation to cover the dogs' food and care.
We send your new dog home with a copy of all vet paperwork, adoption papers, a small bag of the dog food they have been eating and information on taking care of the dog. Also included is a health folder for your vet and notes from our foster mom on the dog's schedule, habits and socialization skills.
We adopt our rescue dogs to adopters in Ohio and some other states within driving distance of the foster family. We do NOT ship our dogs--the adoptive parents must meet the dog at the foster mother's home. This will give the adoptive family a chance to meet the dog before they adopt it. Our dogs are fostered in NE Ohio and surrounding areas. Please make sure you are willing to drive to pick up the dog within 2 weeks of being approved, and check the distance to the foster home per the location above.
Please visit our website www.ronsrescuedrascals.org to learn more about our adoption procedures and policies. From there you can also submit an adoption application, meet our volunteers and benefit from the 8+ years of rescue experience of our all-volunteer, non-profit rescue!
