Story
Sydney is such a sweet girl. She was so very nervous and scared when she was first rescued and has come such a long way, but still a shy pup. She now loves to snuggle under the covers next to her foster mom and follow her people around the house. She gets along great with other dogs, cats and kids and is already potty trained. She quickly becomes a Velcro dog & would do well with someone that is home most of the time. She is still scared by unexpected noises outside, so walking on a leash is important. Sydney needs a family that will give her a little time to trust and feel safe. She will repay your patience with her sweetness! To complete an adoption application Just click the "Adoption Application" link next to my photos above or Visit our website at www.onceuponatailrescue.com Don't forget to follow us on Facebook & Instagram! #outdogrescue If you want to meet a pup in person, Once Upon a Tail Rescue does adoption events at PetSmart in Covington, LA on most Saturdays with many of our adoptable dogs there. Don't forget to complete your application ahead of time, so you don't miss out on the pup you've connected with. If pre-approved, you have first priority & can usually take home your new best friend the same day! *Please note that there is no obligation to adopt by completing an application.* **All dogs are required to have complete vet services, including shots, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip, which are included in the Adoption Fee. Some dogs may still require completion of these services due to current age, size, breed and/or health. All vet services must be done at the vet clinic used by Once Upon a Tail Rescue.

Story
Meet Puppy Love!Ok, his name is a lie. He is not a puppy. He is a grumpy old man set in his ways. And honestly, maybe that`s how he has been his entire life. To find the loving side of this senior, you must endeavor on a journey of patience, training, and a deep acceptance that this boy will cuddle you from a distance. Here is what Puppy Love DOES love...Chasing toysHoarding toys (the squeakier the better)Going for walksFoodNapsAnd testing your boundaries while he sets hisIn all honesty, I love this dog. He will grumpily learn when you set limits and the joy that comes from being allowed to pet him is up there with the full bodied excitement of Mardi Gras Day. Because you know how hard you worked to get to both situations.Puppy Love wouldn`t mind another calm dog in the house. His old age doesn`t mean he can`t find time to play now and then. And afterwards, he is happy to find his own toy lair and nap away until the next bout of energy or angst or hunger rouses him.Anyone interested in Puppy Love will be set up with our trainer to assist with a new transition and get this boy on the right path for the right home. We promise you he is worth it.
