My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Orchid is FEARLESS! She'll need an owner willing to spend time with her, training her and providing boundaries. She is very active, constantly wanting to go. Even after playing outside with her siblings, she has energy long after they'veSqueaky toys and stuffed animals fallen asleep! She jumped into my swimming pool without a thought and swam. An active family. Children would be great and another dog wold definitely be great. I don't think she'll do well being by herself for very long, she has a lot of energy to use up!

 

As with all young puppies, Orchid should not be left alone for more than 2-3 hrs at a time and is working hard on her potty training.  Part of our adoption contract is a promise to attend a puppy training class to ensure she has a great start learning the rules of life as a family member.  Are you ready to commit to training?  Do you have a hefty dose of patience?  Are you ready for puppy breath, cuddles, laughter and more?  Then perhaps Orchid is the girl for you :)  Please do your research on the Catahoula breed before applying.  They are an intelligent and active breed and require a committed owner.  Also, remember that any time you invest into your pup will be returned ten fold!  Orchid truly is a special girl and we want to find the perfect home for her. Please read on for instructions on how to apply:

 As a purely foster based rescue we have no central location at which you can visit our dogs, consequently we only honor meeting requests from pre-approved adopters.  Please fill in our online application at www.myaarf.org as fully as you can.  Please allow 24-48 hours for a response from our busy volunteers. Adoption Fee is $400 which includes transport from Louisiana to Seattle, vetting/assessment (including spay/neuter at one of our approved vets), all shots (at our vets) and micro-chipping.
