Story
💃🐶 ADOPT KAYLEE 🐶💃 Kaylee is about 6 years old and just the sweetest girl. She is great with all people, including kiddos, and she gets along with other dogs in the home. Outside of the home and/or on a leash, she likes to pretend she doesn't like other dogs and goes a little overboard to get her point across. She is housebroken and crate-trained. She loves sunbathing, and her talents include: 🐾 Pretending to be deaf when she doesn't want to do something 🐾 Dancing and walking like a human 🐾 Letting you know when you've spent too much time on the phone 🐾 Sweet talking you out of some bacon Kaylee would likely not do well in an apartment if she can see out the window. She's very vocal when she catches sight of a squirrel, dog, cat, bunny, or any other animal. She'll also bark at other people walking by. She is super friendly and social and doesn't ever meet a stranger. Please consider adding Kaylee to your family. She will bring you so much love and happiness! ADOPTION APPLICATION: www.tinyurl.com/IADRAdoptionApp ***IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ*** Our adoption fee is $175. We require an application to be completed prior to setting up a meet-and-greet. We do not offer "on-the-spot" adoptions. We do not adopt on a first-come, first-served basis. We do our best to match dogs with families that will be a good fit to help ensure a successful adoption. We reserve the right to decline any application for any reason. Due to the nature of our adoption process, our fosters are usually only able to consider forever families within a reasonable driving distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A vet reference is required, and a trial period will be completed before finalizing the adoption. Thank you for your understanding.

Story
Nigel is being fostered in PA. Nigel is a sweet little boy! He loves playing(chewing) toys. 😂 He loves being outside and especially loves walks! He loves to snuggle next to you on the sofa. He is dog and cat friendly. He likes to chase my cats, but he is actually playing with them. He gets very excited when it's time to eat and will stand up on his hind legs and beg. He is very active for 10 years old. He does have impaired vision but gets around very well. Nigel is on drops for dry eye and may need sedation before grooming. He will have a dental prior to adoption. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
Meet Bessie and Sparkles! Bessie and Sparkles are very sweet girls! They are a bonded pair. Sparkles is the daughter of Bessie. They are approximately 11 years old. Bessie is a terrier mix and Sparkles a maltese mix. They are small dogs weighing about 15 pounds. Both are well behaved, crate trained, house trained (when let out on a regular basis) and walk well on a leash. They would be good just the two of them or in a house with other dogs. Bessie and Sparkles are both friendly and love to be with their people. Bessie likes to be close. Sparkles loves to be closer. She loves to lay in the lap of her foster mom. Sparkles is super soft and loves to be pet. Bessie has the most gorgeous eyes and loves attention too. They love to lay around and snuggle, both each other and their human family. Both are healthy and do not need any special medical care. Bessie has a heart murmur, but it is minor and doesn't require medication. Bessie and Sparkles are wonderful little dogs!To set up a meet and greet or inquire about a dog, please first fill out an application at https://savinghoperescue.org/adopt It doesn't obligate you, but it is the first step. We don't get to all of the inquiries but respond to all applications. Thank you for choosing to rescue!
