My story

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

Gump is a sweet three year old JRT/chi mix.  He transferred from another rescue that did not have room for him, where he had been brought in as an unclaimed stray.  Gump is happy, friendly, loving, calm and does well with other dogs and I assume cats too.  He is neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative and is on monthly heartworm and flea preventives.  Gump's adoption fee is a donation to the rescue in the amount of $500.

Additional adoption info

An application to meet or adopt is required before scheduling an appointment or providing our address or directions. Other requirements are approval of application; adoption fees and contract. Adoption fees are tax deductible donations payable via PayPal or check made to Fairy Dogmother Rescue & Rehab, Inc. Cash is accepted also. Fees for long distance adoptions are payable thru PayPal (small service fee applies).

Adoption fees are donations that support the rescue and make it possible to save, house, provide vet care and find homes for as many small dogs as possible. Fees provide for all the 50+ dogs at Fairy Dogmother, not just the dog being adopted. Most fees are $450 (seniors, some big dogs or long timers could be lower). All FDM dogs are safe on premises until adopted, are spayed or neutered, fully vaccinated, maintained on monthly heartworm and flea preventive.
There is no time limit for adoption.

Application to meet or adopt is required before appointments are scheduled or our address or directions provided. Please email for same at fairydogmother@gmail.com Visitors are welcome to see all the available dogs. If everything goes well, visitors can go home with a new family member that day.

More about this rescue

Many FDM dogs come from kill shelters on their last day. Kill shelters can and do kill owner surrenders without any time given for a chance to be adopted. No dog should die because it's owner is unable to keep the dog. As space and resources allow, FDM takes as many small dogs in danger of going to a kill shelter as possible, whether they be small owner surrenders, small dogs whose owner has died or small starved, injured and dumped strays in need of a Fairy Dogmother. Sometimes referrals to other rescues are possible for dogs too large for FDM. There is no "time limit" at FDM. When the right person, couple or family finds us, ALL Fairy Dogmother's dogs go to wonderful homes...
