Meet Ralphie
Ralphie made it safely out of the Arkansas shelter system and traveled to Wisconsin with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on 12/6. He is now settling into his foster home and beginning to show his sweet, social personality as he relaxes and adjusts.
Ralphie is part of an unwanted litter of five puppies born to a stray mother who has had multiple litters but has never been able to be caught and fixed. Despite the tough start, Ralphie is now safe, warm, and ready for a bright future.
He appears to be a Border Collie/Lab mix and, like his siblings, is friendly, affectionate, and good with people, other dogs, and cats. At around 3 months old, Ralphie is at the perfect age to begin learning all the puppy basics. He is working on potty training, crate training, and leash skills, and he is picking things up quickly in foster care.
Ralphie is a well-rounded, adaptable little pup who will thrive with a family ready to guide him as he grows.
Age: 3 months
Gender: Male
Weight: 15lbs
Breed: Border Collie/Lab mix (best guess)
Spayed/Neutered: Not yet

Ralphie deserves a loving home where he can learn, play, and grow into the wonderful dog he’s meant to be. Could that home be yours?

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 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.
**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
