My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***Please consider being a foster mom and dad to a pet in need. It is a very rewarding experience and it will help save a dog's life.***

** Male, Rat Terrier
** 5 years, 17lbs
** Housetrained
** Crate trained
** Good with dogs, unsure on cats but happy to test
** Good with dog respectful children 13 and older
** Adoption fee $150

Health: Happy is spayed/neutered, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, current on DHPP, Bordatella, and Rabies.

More About Me: Hi! Want to know why they call me Happy?? Because I am!!! I’m a great little dog. I know where to go potty (outside) and I’m fine in my crate. I can’t think of a single person I’ve met that I haven’t liked (as long as my foster mom likes them – they’re ok with me). I like walks, I’m good on a leash, and love car rides. I’m very obedient, loving and loyal and I’ll never say no to a game of ‘fetch’. I’m ok if you have to be away during the day – but I sure love it when you’re home. My owner got sick and could no longer care for me, I was very sad but being the good little dog that I am I bonded quickly with my foster mom. I understand this is temporary and I’m ready to meet my forever family. Please fill out an application for me and my foster mom will let you know even MORE wonderful things about me.

FOSTER UPDATE
Looking for the perfect little dog? Look no further… Meet Happy!!! Loving, well mannered, sweet and personable. Happy gets along pretty well with other dogs and absolutely loves people. He is crate trained and house trained – He will even go into his crate when asked. He does well with respectful children 13 and older and would like a fenced yard to play in. His foster mom has nothing but good things to say about him!

History: Happy's owner has become sick and is unable to care for Happy anymore. She loves him very much and wants him to find a great home. NWIPR was asked to bring Happy into rescue and find him a new home. We are so glad to have him join us in rescue.

NWIPR IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER REGISTERED NON-PROFIT 501c3 PUBLIC CHARITY
Your adoption donation is used to care for and vet the many dogs that enter into rescue from overcrowded shelters where their time is running out-ultimately they are on death row. Your adoption donation goes directly to the care of the many dogs that enter into rescue. All dogs leave rescue vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, and medically checked out. In some cases they receive dentals, ear flush, surgeries, and so on to ensure that they are healthy and ready to be adopted. Your adoption donation is very much appreciated and needed to help care for the many needy dogs that enter into rescue. New adopters receive a FREE exam coupon at a local veterinary clinic in Lynnwood OR a $30 care voucher to a veterinary chain (so be sure to ask about these coupons if you are interested).

NOTE: Please do not email for more dog info. This is all the info available until approved application is received and then you can talk directly to that dog's foster home for further info. Thank you!

NWIPR's adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, screening, in person meeting, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. NWIPR is the pet's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general and unique needs, therefore adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption for any reason.

PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this pet's biography is based on observations from the current foster home. NWIPR is very honest about the pet's behavior and needs (and provides up to date information), we cannot guarantee they will behave in the same manner in a different environment with new owners as individual household dynamics vary greatly.

CONSIDER FOSTERING A DOG
***Do you or someone you know have the desire to help a rescue dog? If you have a loving heart, dog experience, a safe and secure yard and the notion to make a difference, please consider fostering a rescue dog. There are MANY dogs that we just do not have room for and just one person can make a world of difference to a dog that needs a safe place to rest his or her weary paws.....***
