Poppy Needs a Foster or Adopter by Saturday, 12/6 to Secure Her Ride to Wisconsin
Poppy is currently in an Arkansas shelter and must have a foster or adopter by Saturday,
December 6th to secure her spot on the transport truck to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog
Rescue. Without a home commitment, she will not be able to make the trip.
Meet Poppy
Poppy is a sweet, 1-year-old Lab/Shepherd mix, about 40 pounds. She is incredibly friendly and
social, loving everyone she meets—people and dogs alike. Poppy has a gentle, affectionate
personality and shows no aggression, making her a wonderful companion for a variety of
homes.
She has spent much of her life in the shelter and is eager for a home where she can get regular
exercise, love, and attention. Poppy has narrowly escaped the euthanasia list and now needs a
committed foster or adopter to give her a chance at a safe, happy life.

5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
