My story

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

CAULIFLOWER



 



BREED: Terrier cross (best guess: Jack-a Poo)



 



AGE: 13 weeks old



WEIGHT: 15 lbs.



 



LIKES: Playing and wrestling with any dog that will let her. Cozy dog beds. Toys, socks, pajamas, books, sticks, paper, etc. Food.



 



DISLIKES: Cats. People she doesn't know. 



 



PERSONALITY TRAITS: Cauliflower is a high energy, very smart, girl who is anxious about new people and situations. She requires a lot of time to feel comfortable (more than average) in a new environment. She is smart and will evade attempts to grab or corner her. So take it slow, while working to earn her trust. It’ll be worth it. 



 



POTTY TRAINING STATUS: Cauliflower seems to be mostly potty trained in her foster home.



 



CRATE TRAINING STATUS: Cauliflower sleeps in a crate each night, with other dogs in her foster home, and she has been known to hide under the couch, so she prefers places she can feel safe.



 



GROOMING: Cauliflower has soft Poodle-like hair, which may require regular grooming to ensure she doesn't get matted. 



 



MISC. INFO: If you have a young, very active, small to medium sized dog (15-50 lbs.) who would like a friend to wrestle, chase, and hang with, Cauliflower would love that. She will wear them out and then happily sleep in a dog bed with some treasured toys or bones. Cauliflower took over a week to allow her foster mom to touch and handle her, and still gets nervous when other people enter the room, however, she will now happily climb on her foster mom's lap or lay beside her on the couch, or in the dog bed on the floor. Due to the patience her foster mom showed during her first week in her care, she went from spending most of that time under the couch to trusting just a little more with each passing day.



 



Cauliflower is in her element when playing in the yard with a dog friend, and she adores her "big" foster sister dog and snuggles with her without hesitation. Cauliflower's timid yet active nature makes her best suited for a home without small children, cats, chickens, or other small pets. Over time, and with consistent patience and training, Cauliflower will blossom into a lovely companion.

Our team carefully reviews and interviews applicants to find the best fit for each adoptable dog and potential family. Filling out an application in no way guarantees you a dog or a response email as we get hundreds of applications and choose the best home for the dog.



Distemper/Parvo boosters,  and rabies shot, microchip, and spay/neuter surgery are included with the adoption fee.  You will also receive a PetSmart puppy packet with hundreds of dollars of savings, a FREE bag of food, 30 minute private training session with a certified dog trainer, and a free checkup at Banfield. 



Potential adopters must live within 30 miles of Eugene, Oregon. If you live outside the 30 mile radius, still send us an email, as we will can make exceptions if the circumstances are optimal for the dog or puppy.

Additional adoption info

The process for adoption through our rescue begins with the adoption application. Once accepted, a meet and greet with the dogs is arranged and includes everyone in the family including other pets. If the dog seems like a good fit, he/she is brought to the home where the dog will be living to make sure it is an appropriate home....ie. dog friendly, fenced yard, etc. Finally, an adoption agreement is signed to insure that the adopter understands what is expected of them.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs are in foster homes prior to finding their forever homes. Please contact us if you see a dog you'd like to meet. We also participate in adoption events at local pet stores.
