Story
Hi, I'm Blue Bell. I was adopted out as a puppy from RHS but my family could no longer care for me. I LOVE human attention. I get along with other dogs, but I do want to make sure I've got your full attention!!! My dental care was basically nonexistent, so I had to have all my teeth pulled. I feel much better and it doesn't bother me. I'm not a fan of being brushed or groomed, although you can work with me on that. It's been a bit rough for me lately, but I'm ready to trade in my past for a future filled with love and belly rubs. I promise to be the sweetest companion you could ask for. So, what do you say? Ready to give an old girl like me a chance? Here's how to meet me: Meet the Adoption Criteria. Before you do anything else, make sure you meet our adoption criteria. You must be at least 21 years old. You must live within a 60-mile radius of Richardson, Texas. You must share veterinary records for all pets currently in your home and all pets owned in the last five years. All pets in the home must be spayed or neutered. If you rent your home, you must provide verification that pets are allowed on the property. You must be willing to be interviewed by an adoption counselor and you must undergo a home visit from an RHS representative. Apply. You can complete an application at an MTP event or complete it online by either clicking the button below or the “Adopt” button beneath the pet’s photo in the listings above. Phone Interview or Attend a Meet the Pets (MTP) event. This is a great opportunity to meet the pet you are interested in and see if you connect. We hold these events once a month on Saturday from 1:00-3:00 p.m. We post the pets who are expected to attend on Friday evening on our Facebook page. For exact details and locations, view our event calendar. If an event is over a week away, a counselor may contact you for a phone interview. Home Visit. If all the steps above are completed satisfactorily, we will set up a home visit where you can meet the pet you are interested in again and the pet can meet other pets in the family. We will try to send the foster parent so you can learn more about how the pet is in a home environment. Complete Adoption. If all feel it is a good match, we will schedule the adoption at MTP or an off-site location. The applicant will need to complete the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. Our adoption fee is $250 for adult dogs, $300 for puppies (under 1 year) and $125 for cats. Discounts are available for senior-aged pets. APPLY HERE: www.richardsonhumanesociety.org ##492095##

Meet Miso, the 10-month-old Maltese puppy who is pure love wrapped in five pounds of fluff! This little sweetheart is the definition of joy — her favorite place in the world is snuggled up right next to her human. Whether you’re watching TV, working from home, or just relaxing, Miso will happily curl up beside you and make every moment brighter. But don’t let her tiny size fool you — Miso also loves to play with other pups! She’s a social butterfly who enjoys romping around with dogs big or small, then curling up for a nap once playtime’s over. She’s great with cats and gentle children too, making her the perfect little addition to a loving family. If you’re ready for a life filled with snuggles, happy zoomies, and endless sweetness, Miso is ready to be the very best part of your day — every day.   Located in Northern Texas — available for out-of-state adoption (transport fee applies) Adoption Application: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/13108/generic Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14C2FGVGHQCWR?ref_=wl_share ##2455156##
