Meet Cali (also known as Molly)

Cali arrived in Wisconsin as a tiny 3-month-old pup from a Georgia kill shelter. She was part of an unwanted litter nicknamed the “Travel Litter.” Shortly after arriving, she was adopted and has spent the past year in a home of her own. Sadly, due to a financial crisis and a move, her current family is heartbroken to have to rehome their dogs. Through no fault of her own, Cali is now looking for a truly forever home.

Cali is approximately 1 year and 3 months old and is a best-guess Lab/Aussie mix. She has the wonderful combination of Labrador sweetness and Australian Shepherd smarts. Despite the changes in her life, she remains a friendly, playful, and affectionate girl. She is past the destructive puppy stage and has grown into a well-mannered young dog who is ready to settle in with a loving family. Cali is super cute, incredibly sweet, and loves being around her people.

She is leash trained, crate trained, potty trained, and spayed, making her an easy addition to a home. Cali does well with kids, though a home with older children (around 5 years and up) would be best. She gets along well with other dogs. She has not been around cats since she was a tiny puppy, so her compatibility with them is unknown.

Cali weighs about 40 lbs — a perfect medium size for snuggles and adventures alike.

Cali is truly looking for stability, love, and a family who will cherish her for the rest of her life. She deserves a safe, committed home where she can thrive.

ADOPTION PROCESS:
1.) Apply: Fill out adoption application completely and submit all necessary documents.
2.)Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
​3.)Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: after approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5 day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure its the right fit.
4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
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 $150 for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. We recommend going to HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI for the most affordable option. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, that works too!
