My story

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

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

Tiny  [called "TeeTee" by his foster mom] was 'found' by someone who tried to sell him instead of search for his owner.  A very savvy rescuer paid the 'fee' so she could bring Tiny into foster care while we searched for his owner.  It's been several weeks, and his owner has never been located.

Tiny is a young Yorkshire Terrier.  He has it all in the 'tiniest' of packages: affectionate, friendly, portable, pretty quiet, crate trained, mostly potty trained, likes other dogs and even kids although he is a bit reserved when meeting strangers.  All this, and just a bit of Terrier tenacity.  Currently, he weighs only 3.5 pounds and is underweight.  Tiny had a health exam and received all age-appropriate vaccines.  Bloodwork was done to learn if he had an underlying medical issue to explain his lack of weight.  Bloodwork results did not reveal anything.  However, he does have significant luxating patellas in both knees.  Tiny does need to be neutered but needs to gain at least a pound before he can have neuter surgery.

In his foster home, Tiny enjoys following his foster mom around, hanging out with the resident dogs and chewing on Nyla bones. He is a true 'Velcro' dog. He takes cues from the other dogs on how to respond to the doorbell ringing, people coming in the home, and going outdoors to potty.  He is a good student and fast learner! Tiny tends to attach to one person even where others are present.  If he is coddled too much, he will develop the dreaded "small dog syndrome" [ How to Understand Small Dog Syndrome (Plus How to Fix It) (wikihow.com)]  

We are seeking a very special home for Tiny where he will never again need to worry about being sold on a street corner.  No children under 12 years of age please due to his small size and tendency to get underfoot.  He would love another canine companion to hang out with....one on the smaller size so he doesn't get stepped on.

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!
