My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Miss Poppy is a sweet and timid young thing that is looking for someone to love and encourage her to be all she can be. When she first came to us she really wasn't sure what people wanted by trying to pick her up or touch her. For all we know, her former people had left her in the backyard her entire life without any physical interation. Fast forward several months with her amazing foster people and she's a much more confident girl that ust needs rassurance once in a while.

Poppy has been on many adventures, even camping, and has blossomed (pun intended) with each additional exposure. It may take a bit for her to warm up to new people but the wait is so worth it.

Only about 10 pounds and about two years old, this little girl is good with other small dogs and with men and women alike. Any children in the home should be in their teens or older and understand the needs of a timid dog.

If you believe you need a little flower in your life then maybe Poppy is it. To apply please read on or go directly to throwmeabonedogrescue.org/adoption-process

All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - the link is found of the Adoption Process page. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live.

Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
