Here's what the humans have to say about me:
SPECIAL RESCUE. ODR, Inc. has rescued six dachshunds from an appallingly awful hoarding situation in the Colton area.These little guys were totally neglected and running free without supervision on a 10 acre parcel with no one caring or feeding them. They all need significant vet care and some recovery. Plus they must be placed with experienced adopters. They are all runners and a fenced yard is an absolute necessity. They are at the vet, getting the care they need to save their lives and prepare them for a much better future. Please consider donation.
MEET SPOOKY. This is a really sad case. This sweet guy is 16 year old, and with his long hair and no care, he was such a mess. We're doing blood work to see if he can handle anesthetic. He has cataracts, matted filthy fur, and needs full dental, plus all the regular vetting. He weighs only 12 pounds, and needs a loving home in which to spend his final years. He was delighted to be rescued as could be immediately seen by his wagging tail. Do you have a place for Spooky? Fee: $100.
Based on 30 years of experience with rescue doxies, we have pretty strict criteria. Do you work from home/stay at home/work part time? Have a securely fenced yard? We do not place same sex in a home and children need to be 10 or older (some exceptions IF the dog is a puppy or the child has been raised with a doxie). We prefer no smokers and a home with no other small animals (ferrets, hamsters, etc) Cats are on a case by case basis depending on the dog. Remember these are rescues, many were surrendered because of these issues. All our dogs are fully vetted, including all shots, wormer & flea protection, nails trimmed, the works. They'll come with a basket of goodies, food, toys and a custom made harness. The adoption fee is $100, no exceptions as this covers the cost to rescue them, vet them and take care of them while in our rescue. It also helps towards the care of other doxies that come with huge vet or dental bills or need extensive behavioral training. Can you give him a happy, carefree life again? If interested, please complete the adoption questionnaire at www.odr-inc.org and email it to: jrangan@comcast.net - the adoption committee will be in touch with you within 48 hours so please be patient as we are solely volunteer run.
