Story
I am a 8 year old Rat terrier mix. My foster mom says I am the most pleasant and friendly guy. I am housebroken, crate trained, love to take walks and totally enjoy a car ride- I’m always the first one in the car! Unfortunately my previous owner didn’t think dental care was important so recently I had to have 30 teeth removed, I still have two. I feel like a new dog! I can run around and enjoy life, I have no more pain. I am eating canned or softened dry for two weeks then I can eat dry kibble. I am looking for my own family I can love and enjoy, I will easily be your new best friend. ADOPTION PROCESS 1. Review our adoption contract and application. 2. Call your vet and references to inform them that a rescue representative will be calling. 3. Complete adoption application and submit following appropriate link below: Dog/Puppy: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Dog Cat/kitten: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HRMD/Cat It takes us about 1-3 days to process applications. Once approved, we ask that all members of the household (including dogs) be available for meeting the animal within 5 days. If the meeting goes well, you will submit payment electronically and be able to take your new family member home with you immediately! If for whatever reason you do not take the animal home after the first meeting, please understand that we will continue to process applications for the animal and availability is not guaranteed. 4. Please review these resources prior to the meeting to be prepared with what to expect when bringing a new dog home: a.
