Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 May 10, 2024, 2:00 pm

Story
(Bonded to Amos, must be willing to adopt both) There's a snake in my boot Andi! Meet everyone's best friend, Andi! She's a super sweet 12 lb dog looking for a forever home and family to adopt her and her brother. Like her brother Amos, she is a beautiful white Maltese/poodle mix and has a great temperament. She gets along with everyone and needs more experience with cats, but kids and other dogs are golden! Andi enjoys walks and does well on the leash and could keep your lap warm or help you walk out your frustrations and then cuddle with you to help you forget all your troubles!! Local adoption fee is $400 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $600 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Lucky’s is a sweet, beautiful little dog. He wears a belly wrap as he came "housebroken", but was not, but he is doing much better. He is in a foster home now that has a fenced in backyard and he goes number two outside and he goes number one and then they usually put the belly wrap on him at night but he’s doing fabulous with the potty training . He is very smart. His foster mama absolutely loves him. He backs right up to her to get his belly wrap on every night . He would be perfect in a retired couple's or woman's home. He would do fine with female dogs. He is smart and listens to commands. He is a little tad bit spoiled. . He would be fine with older children but not toddlers. He loves his human and sleeps great in the bed. Please fill out your application and we will process it and call you. We have a 606 area code when we call. strayheartsrescue@outlook.com https://forms.gle/suhbpui9RXiVmvoJ9
