Here's what the humans have to say about me:
CiCi, a dachshund/chihuahua mix, sparkles with love and energy to bring to her new home. On 8/13/18 this golden girl weighed 7.5 lbs. and was guesstimated to be 5 months old. CiCi has been doing well with her house-training once she became acclimated to new surroundings at her foster mom’s home. She gets along well with other dogs. She is up to date on vaccinations including a bordatella for kennel cough, has been spayed, is heartworm negative and is being kept on heartworm and flea and tick prevention to maintain her good health. CiCi has a scar on her left side from a burn of unknown origin. She is learning how to walk on a leash and does well on car rides even though she complains about being in a crate during the ride. CiCi’s adoption donation is $225. If you would like to adopt CiCi please complete the first step in the adoption process by filling out our online adoption application. You can find the link to our on-line adoption application at www.arfarkansas.com on the right hand side of our home page. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember our organization is staffed completely by volunteers.
Please Note: All applications are processed in the order received, but an adoption is made to the best application received for each of our animals. All applicants must provide a vet reference on the adoption application. If you are adopting a dog from ARFA, a fenced in yard for the dog will be required. Home visits often occur with each adoption. ARFA has the right to deny adoption to any applicant for any reason without explanation. Please remember that the adoption donation is not for purchase of a dog, but rather to cover the medical cost of all dogs in our care.
THE FINE PRINT
1. Animal Rescue Fund Arkansas reserves the right to deny any application, for any reason without explanation to the applicant.
2. You understand that we often take many applications on the same animal and that they are processed in the order that they come in. An application is in no way a reservation for any animal or a guarantee that you will be selected to adopt the animal.
3. If your application Is approved, you will be asked to sign a separate adoption contract.
4. Once the trial period is over, usually 1 week unless there are special circumstances, the adoption donation cannot be returned to you for any reason. It will have been used to help rescue another homeless animal and is no longer available therefore, if you return the dog to us for any reason, you will not be refunded your donation.
5. If the animal you want to adopt is placed in another home, you can transfer your application to another A.R.F.A. animal without completing additional paperwork.
6. You understand that this is a rescued pet. We rarely have any information about their past life circumstances. We have all animals examined by a vet, brought up to date on shots, given their rabies vaccine, spayed/neutered (If old enough), wormed and checked for heartworms and if positive begin treatment. We do our best to ensure that we are placing healthy pets but can make no guarantee to the health or temperament of this pet, and vet expenses are the responsibility of the adoptive family from the date of the adoption. We require that you take the pet to a vet within one week of adoption for a check-up and to allow your vet to get a baseline for your new pet’s health.
