My story

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

Genie is a shy, sweet mature doxie mix who came to rescue with her three housemates after losing their home and owner to a house fire. One thing that's apparent about all of these girlies is that they have been generously overfed! Genie is now in foster and on a weight reduction diet to hopefully improve her overall health and long-term lifestyle. She also has some other minor skin and eye issues that are being treated as well. Genie is easy going and wonderful. She is a gentle, laid back girl that loves belly rubs and the soft pillow on YOUR bed! She does well with other dogs that respect her space, after slow introduction. She currently uses doggie door and doing well with house training. If you're not ready to relax, DON'T start petting her silky fur! She is a little shy at first until you earn her trust, then you will have a shadow! She enjoys the company of her foster mom, but is definitely a daddies girl!

Genie's eye and skin issues are chronic conditions which will require medication for the rest of her life. Potential adopters should plan to work with their vet to continue her daily eye and skin medications as prescribed.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is three-fold: submit an application, meet the pet, then arrange for us to do your in-home interview.
Adoption Fees:
Kittens: $60, Cats (1 year plus): $50, Puppies: $250, Adult Canines (1 to 6 years): $200, Seniors (7 years plus): $100 (unless otherwise specified). Adoption fees are not a tax-deductible donation as allowed by IRS regulations. Adoption fees help to offset the cost of the pet's care incurred by Coastal Pet Rescue, which are generally 2 to 3 times the adoption fee amount.
Some special circumstances may change the fee; see pet's listing for actual adoption fee.

All Coastal Pet Rescue pets are current on shots, microchipped* and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters are responsible for any shots that may be due after adoption (particularly for kittens and puppies that must have three rounds of shots to be protected).

Microchip:
CPR has implanted a microchip as part of the adoption process and the chip is included in the adoption fee. However, some chip companies require a registration fee varying from $9.99 to $19.99. The registration fees are the responsibility of the adopter and are NOT included in the CPR adoption fee. Adopters may add this cost to their adoption fee to have CPR register the chip on their behalf.

Most of our pets all live in our homes, so adoption applications must be submitted for appointments to be made to see the pets. We also have them with us at our outdoor events, so view our "events" calendar on our website for those dates and locations.
