More About Me: Welcome our new arrival Sissy to rescue.
Hi – it’s me, Sissy! Boy, did I hit the jackpot when I made my way to this rescue! Here are a few things you might like to know about me. My birthday is January 14th. I’m potty trained – just show me the way outside and I’m good. I sleep in my crate at night with a cozy blanket and one of my toys. I love chew toys, playing (chasing leaves is so much fun) and snuggling, I’m pretty good on a leash – sometimes I get a little distracted but a tiny tug and I’m back on track. I have 2 foster sisters and one foster brother here and we all get along great. I LOVE when it’s nice out and I can run around the fenced backyard (fence is a must, as I’m quite a little explorer). I also love taking naps in front of the fireplace. Oh – carrots! I get these for snacks and I love them! – mom slices them up so they’re not too wide (really, does she think I’m a baby?) I’d love to find a quiet new home with a new mom or dad who really wants a little companion – I love being with my foster mom, sometimes I get to go for car rides with her – and I’m well behaved - really! So… in a nutshell, potty trained, crate trained, love chew toys, snuggling, playing and snuggling and carrots. I haven’t been around children but I think children over 12 who are respectful would be ok. I’d also be make an excellent little (big?) sister to your dog (if you have one) – but if you want it to be just you and me – I’m good with that (did I mention that I’m an excellent snuggler ?)
History: Sissy was pulled from an overcrowded s shelter. NWIPR was asked to pull Sissy and find her a great home. We are so glad to have her join us in rescue.
NWIPR IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER REGISTERED NON-PROFIT 501c3 PUBLIC CHARITY
Your adoption donation is used to care for and vet the many dogs that enter into rescue from overcrowded shelters where their time is running out-ultimately they are on death row. Your adoption donation goes directly to the care of the many dogs that enter into rescue. All dogs leave rescue vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, and medically checked out. In some cases they receive dentals, ear flush, surgeries, and so on to ensure that they are healthy and ready to be adopted. Your adoption donation is very much appreciated and needed to help care for the many needy dogs that enter into rescue. New adopters receive a FREE exam coupon at a local veterinary clinic in Lynnwood OR a $30 care voucher to a veterinary chain (so be sure to ask about these coupons if you are interested). NOTE: Please do not email for more dog info. This is all the info available until approved application is received and then you can talk directly to that dog's foster home for further info. Thank you!
NWIPR's adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, screening, in person meeting, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. NWIPR is the pet's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general and unique needs, therefore adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption for any reason.
PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this pet's biography is based on observations from the current foster home. NWIPR is very honest about the pet's behavior and needs (and provides up to date information), we cannot guarantee they will behave in the same manner in a different environment with new owners as individual household dynamics vary greatly.
CONSIDER FOSTERING A DOG
***Do you or someone you know have the desire to help a rescue dog? If you have a loving heart, dog experience, a safe and secure yard and the notion to make a difference, please consider fostering a rescue dog. There are MANY dogs that we just do not have room for and just one person can make a world of difference to a dog that needs a safe place to rest his or her weary paws.....***
