My story

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

Welcome Sweet Oscar!

Oscar is a four-month-old, 9-pound Border Terrier mix puppy who was recently rescued as a stray. He is full of puppy energy and loves attention, toys, and food. Oscar is very affectionate and enjoys being a lap companion. He is great at entertaining himself with toys and has learned to be respectful around older dogs.

Oscar is housetrained and sleeps in a dog bed at night. He is crated when his foster mom runs errands but, as a puppy, he should not be crated all day. We are looking for a forever home where someone is home often and can dedicate time to continue his socialization, basic obedience training, and active play.

Oscar is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. His adoption fee is $350, which helps cover medical expenses for the rescue.

If you are looking for an adorable and sweet puppy companion, please complete our online application at:  https://www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/ .  A volunteer coordinator will contact you after reviewing your submission .

*Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up .

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption is a lifetime commitment. After an application and a verbal interview is completed and it is determined that the adoption is a compatible match, a contract is signed with specific guidelines. An adoption fee (usually between $250-$500) to help off-set medical, feeding and Rescue costs is collected. The contract states that at any time the adoption does not work out, the dog is to be returned to our Rescue group for alternate placement. The dog is not to be 'given away' or 'rehomed' or 'taken to the pound'. If there are other dogs in the home, they must meet prior to adoption. All family members in the household have to agree to the adoption. No dog is to be adopted as a 'gift'. No out of state adoptions.
