Story
WISE is entirely volunteer-run and all of the donations made to our rescue go directly back to the animals in our care. By partnering with veterinary practices that support our work, we are able to save animals lives and restore them back to health. While some animals only need standard care, others require more extensive veterinary or behavioral care. Regardless of which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with a minimum donation of $850. The donation may or may not be directly applied to care of the dog you're adopting but rather goes toward supporting all of the dogs in the rescue. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying.NAME:Bubble YumBREED: Pomeranian x West Highland Terrier mixDOB:Dec 29, 2021 (3 years 10 months)Home Recommendation:Bubble Yum will thrive in a quiet home that has another friendly dog and experienced adopters who can continue helping her build confidence. Because she can be shy and fearful at times, shell do best in a calm environment with patient people committed to her training and socialization. WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Bubble Yum spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. When her 'breeders' decided they no longer had a use for her, they planned to discard her. Thankfully, WISE was able to step in and rescue her along with her three puppies, giving them a second chance to experience the love and warmth of a real home. Now shes ready to start that new chapter!PersonalityBubble Yum is still discovering what it means to be a beloved pet after spending her entire life in a puppy mill. She has slowly begun to enjoy simple pleasures-like watching birds out the window, resting in her crate surrounded by her stuffed animals, and occasionally letting out a little howl when something catches her attention. The quickest way to her heart is through her favorite treats- turkey and cheese. Recently, shes started venturing onto the couch to sit near her foster mom, showing her belly for rubs. She loves to play with the other dogs she is being fostered with. Though still timid, Bubble Yum has made great strides and continues to blossom with patience and love. She will need a devoted family to help her continue this journey and give her the gentle, nurturing home shes always deserved.KIDS: Yes, kids 16+. DOGS: Yes, she would do well with another calm, confident dog.CATS: YesTraining:Bubble Yum uses her crate as her safe spac- she sleeps in it at night and goes in and out during the day for comfort. Shes still practicing leash walking and can be easily startled by loud noises, so quiet walks are best. She isnt yet fully house-trained but is very consistent using wee wee pads (about 95% of the time). With structure, consistency, and reassurance, she will continue to make steady progress.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
