My story

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

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

Meet the stunning Minnie. She is delightful and has a wonderful temperament and disposition. You would not know by looking at her that she has had a very rough start in her young life. She is joyful and loving and would be a wonderful addition to any family. She will require a large, securely fenced yard with another calm, confident dog to chase and play with, as well as continue to teach her how to "dog." She has likely never been in a home, or on a leash prior to arriving at her foster home, where she has several small fur siblings, that she plays well with. She loves toys, chew toys, and running in the yard with the other pups. She is submissive with her fur siblings and has shown no aggressive behavior whatsoever. She is lovely all around, very intelligent, and almost completely house trained, but will need a patient adopter who will give her the time she needs to feel secure and gain confidence; someone who is home more often than not is preferred. She would benefit from obedience classes to continue her learning and socialization, as she is anxious upon meeting new people and in new situations; she will bark when encountering someone new. She will need a securely fenced yard, and cannot be left outside unattended, as she is a flight risk. She is working on her leash training and enjoys long walks. She still has some puppy behaviors; specifically digging, play biting and inappropriate chewing. She is very vocal, so will not be suited for an apartment; I suspect she may have some husky in her. She is a young, active pup, but can also settle and cuddle on the couch.

Although she is only 20 pounds, she is tall and lean, so not a lap dog. Her fur is wiry, so she will shed moderately. She is scheduled for her spay on April 2nd, and will be microchipped at that time. She has tested positive for Lyme disease, and is currently on a 30-day course of antibiotics. She has not been tested with children, but I suspect she will do well as she is gentle and loving. If you think you might be the perfect fit for this special girl, please fill out an application.

Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to    Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a $19.99/Year registration fee or a $45.00/Lifetime registration fee to change information.    Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

All applicants must complete an online Adoption Application, which is then reviewed by our vet check team and a vet check done if applicable

2.

Meet the Pet

A meet-n-greet should be arranged with the prospective adoptive family and foster animal applied for. All current pets must be included.

3.

Home Check

Sometimes the meet-n-greet is combined with the home visit. The home visit is critical to make sure the foster animals is a good fit.

4.

Sign Adoption Contract

When an adoption is a go, the adopters sign an Adoption Contract. The Contract may have addendums depending if the animal is spayed or not.

5.

Pay Fee

Adoption fees may vary from animal to animal.

6.

Take the Pet Home

Adoption Contract must have been signed, fee paid, and adopter provided collar tag with contact info on it, collar and leash.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process requires a completed Adoption Application, vet check, and home visit prior to adoption. If an adoption occurs there is an Adoption Contract the adopter will need to sign. If the animals is not fixed at the time of adoption, the Contract will contain a Spay/Neuter Agreement which details when the animal must be sterilized. A refundable spay/neuter deposit is also required at the time of adoption. We do not adopt our animals out on a first-come-first-served basis or do on-site adoptions. We strive to place our animals in an adoptive home that will best meet the animal's needs.
Before the animal is released to the adopter, adopter must provide a collar tag with the adopter's contact information on it. This is required in case the newly adopted animal should get loose.
The adopted animal's microchip is transferred to the adopter after the Adoption Contract has been processed.

More about this rescue

HDDCR is an all-volunteer, 501c3 registered non-profit rescue that rescues dogs and cats in need throughout Michigan and beyond its borders, to Ohio and other states depending on the need. We pull from rural shelters where adoptions are few and kill rates are high. We focus on 'urgent' lists and those dogs and cats that are overlooked because they are unattractive, older or sick. We believe that every animal should have a second chance at a loving home; even if that loving home is in a hospice situation. We exist and rely solely on the generosity of our donors and our hardworking volunteers.

Your donation helps us provide the animals in our care happier days!
