Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Oreo!
Looking for the happiest, sweetest dog ever? Then Oreo is your super special boy! This little guy is about 10-11 months old and has already had at least two homes! His last home had him for about a month. Decided to let go of him because he dug a couple of holes in the yard that he was left in a majority of his time with them. The only information we got from them about his previous life is that they got him from a "friend" who did not have time for him.
This little boy who is part Japanese Chin (we don't think he is all Japanese Chin) is just an absolute doll! He loves everyone, loves kids and other dogs and when held in your arms like a baby just gets relaxed and falls asleep.
Oreo being such a great little spirit would be amenable to many living situations but would definitely be great as a family dog as he is loving and gentle with kids. He has a super soft coat with one amazing blue eye and one brown eye! (More pictures will follow later today.)
His adoption fee includes the following:
1. Neuter
2. All vaccines up to date including rabies
3. Microchip
4. Deworming
5. Harness and leash
6. Starter food and treats
7. Bed
An adoption fee does apply.
As we prescreen via email ONLY (we do NOT make or receive phone calls in the pre-screening phase) please tell us a bit about you such as:
1. Your lifestyle, activity level and work schedule.
2. Area you live in and if it is a house or apartment.
3. How many adults, children and pets in the household.
4. Where your pet stays when you are out or at work.
5. Where your pet will sleep.
6. Breed experience.
7. If you do not have a dog your plans to keep him socialized.
Some notes to consider before applying for Oreo:
1. Oreo is part Japanese Chin which means he may require some groomings as the hair will continue to grow.
2. Oreo is a 10 month old puppy and as such will require the time and commitment to become the best canine citizen she can be. Please make sure that everyone is on board and ready for the responsibility of a puppy. ALL puppies need continued training for housebreaking no matter how great they are puppies make mistakes. Please take into account the time and energy needed to raise a puppy.
3. Please make sure you are ready to adopt before coming to see our adoptable dogs. We are a foster based rescue and do not have the space to hold dogs for a couple of weeks while you vacation or make your way to California to come and adopt. We will adopt out of state but ONLY if the potential adopter comes here to adopt in person and that is after a screening by Skype. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS EVER.
4. We are often inundated with emails about our adoptable dogs and try as we might to make everyone happy it is nearly impossible with only one dog and sometimes up to 50 potential families. The more information you provide in your email to us the quicker we will get back to you. If you have written to us before about a particular dog and did not receive a response please do try again. We try to answer every email but it is not always possible. Every dog has different home requirements that we search for so sometimes you are the right fit for the dog we are trying to place.
5. As we have had some confusion as to our adoption process please note:
Once we receive an email from you, IF we feel it fits the criteria we are looking for we will email back with a bit more specific information. From there if you are still interested we may or may not move ahead with a phone screen and then a meet and greet. Once we schedule a meet and greet more often than not the adoption takes place with the family we have chosen but it is NOT a guarantee as we do NOT adopt first come first serve. Our first commitment is to the well being of the dog as we back all the dogs we place for life.
Thank you for choosing to adopt!
