My story

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

PLEASE DO NOT HIT "ASK ABOUT"!!

Due to factors beyond our control, transport costs for our Puppy Mill survivors are much higher than what we have been accustomed to - costs for health certificates and medical + transport for each dog with no allowances for shared crates. With these factors taken into account, as well as the care needs for all of the animals in our adoption program, we need to request a donation above our normal request. Depending which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with a donation in the range of $450- $850 from each adopter. $250 of that donation will be used toward the cost of transport. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying.

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website www.wiseanimalrescue.org/adoption-application!

Name: Mr Smee

Breed: Miniature Poodle

Weight: Approx 18 lbs

Age: Approx 9 years old

Home recommendation: Mr Smee's ideal home is one where he can get all of the love and attention he did not receive living in a cage his entire life. He really likes the company of other animals and would do best in a home with another relaxed dog and/or cat!

Personality: Mr Smee's foster mom says, "He is very sweet and very shy." Mr Smee will initially be a bit nervous around you but friendly. Once he warms up, he is happy to accept pets and likes to be carried up and down the stairs. He loves playing with his doggy foster sibling and lounging on the couch with his kitty foster sibling!

Kids: 13+ due to advanced age and smaller size

Dogs: Yes

Cats: Yes, check his pictures out to see him with his best kitty friend!

Crate Trained: Yes! He sleeps in a crate at night and will go in for naps during the day

House Trained: yes! He has been doing great with going to the bathroom outside

Why did he come to WISE? Mr Smee was rescued from a horrible puppy mill situation where he was used for breeding most of his life. When he was determined "unfit" to be used in their 'breeding program', they were going to euthanize him. WISE wasn't going to let that happen and saved this cute guy!
