Story
Welcome to rescue, Elvis!  He is such a friendly boy!! Elvis is a Bernedoodle, born 2/1/26.  He gets along with dogs, cats and kids AND will be a great family dog.  He just moved into his foster home and is doing well so far.  We will share updates as we learn more about him.   Elvis is still young, so he will need people that are willing to provide training opportunities for him.  Ideally, his new home will have a fenced yard so he can safely run and play. Please inquire about meeting this sweet boy today!   The suggested adoption donation for Elvis is $525, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).  Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.   Information about the adoption process:  All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note:  We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months. To learn about Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue or donate to our animals, please visit our website at MuddyPawsSecondChanceRescue.com or our Facebook Page Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue Inc.   If the dog or cat you adopt is older than 6 months of age and not spayed or neutered, you will receive a voucher to alter the pet at Val Verde Animal Hospital in Omaha, at no cost to you.  Or you can alter the pet at your own vet and be reimbursed $100 for dogs, and $50 for cats, of total cost.  If the dog or cat is younger than 6 months of age, adopter will be responsible for the cost of altering the pet at the vet of their choice.  If proof of alter is received by Muddy Paws prior to the pet turning 6 months of age, a reimbursement of $100 for dogs and $50 for cats, will be sent to you to help cover expenses.  [Muddy Paws can also suggest a vet with a reduced cost for alters.]  All puppies and kittens MUST be spayed or neutered by 6 months of age.  All dogs and cats MUST be spayed or neutered no later than one month after adoption is finalized.  Thank you in advance for your compliance. ##2844948##

Story
Cee Cee is a Bernedoodle, born 2/1/26.  She is good with dogs, cats and kids of all ages!  She is usually pretty calm and she is such a sweet girl!  She does not like a kennel.  She sleeps on the couch like a couch potato. She would love to sleep in bed with her person.   Cee Cee is mostly house trained but will use a potty pad.   She knows a few commands.  She knows sit, ground and spin - the best part for her is the treat she gets after she does a trick! Ideally, Cee Cee's forever person would have a fenced yard and be able to provide regular exercise for her. She would love a dog companion but that is not required as long as her person has lots of time to spend with her.   A Bernedoodle is a crossbreed between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Miniature Poodle, known for being affectionate, loyal, and low-shedding.  Right now, she only weighs about 35 pounds.   The suggested adoption donation for Cee Cee is $525, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).  Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
