DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Maribelle is a stunning brindle mix with a heart as warm as her coat. This delightful girl embarked on a journey all the way from South Carolina to seek her forever home, and she's ready to charm her way into your heart!

Maribelle is a vision of canine beauty, but it's her personality that truly shines. With a zest for life and a twinkle in her expressive eyes, she's a high-energy pup who's always up for an adventure. Whether it's a brisk walk, a game of fetch, or just some quality cuddle time, Maribelle is your go-to gal.

This sweet girl has a talent for making friends, and her people-friendly nature is truly endearing. Maribelle is hoping to find that special someone who will appreciate her unique blend of playfulness and affection. If you're looking for a furry companion to spoil rotten, Maribelle is more than up for the task!

While Maribelle loves to be the center of attention, she's not the biggest fan of other dogs. She prefers to bask in the spotlight as the sole recipient of your love and affection. Her ideal home would be one where she can be the queen of her castle, soaking up all the love and attention she deserves. Give this lovely brindle beauty a chance, and she'll wag her way into your heart with her infectious joy and charming personality. Maribelle is eagerly awaiting the day when she can call a forever home her own, and she can't wait to share a lifetime of love and happiness with her special someone. Could that someone be you? Come meet Maribelle and discover the joy of having a loyal and loving companion by your side!

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.

Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home. For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at foster@k-9lifesavers.org

Additional adoption info

The adoption process is almost always completed within one week of time you submitted your questionnaire (times can vary depending on your location, the dog’s location, and availability).

We appreciate your understanding as all volunteer run organization.

Fill out an adoption questionnaire, found at https://k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt (please note, completion of the Adoption Questionnaire does not guarantee adoption- it is the first step in our adoption process).

· An adoption counselor will call you to review your application.

· The adoption counselor will call your reference, landlord/condo association, and veterinarian (if applicable).

· The entire household should be willing and present for a home visit.

· The adoption counselor will schedule a time for you, your family, and any other pets to meet the dog(s) you've applied for.

Once approved, you will need to finalize your adoption by completing an adoption contract and paying the adoption fee in cash or check. At that time, available medical records will be provided along with a variety of other information.

More about this rescue

K-9 Lifesavers is an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit organization that rescues homeless and abandoned dogs. We save canines that are scheduled for euthanasia from high kill shelters, where there are typically held only for 3-7 days. K-9 Lifesavers also strives to educate the importance of responsible dog ownership, including spay/neuter, training, and pet nutrition.

K-9 Lifesavers relies primarily upon our dedicated foster families since we do not operate a shelter. These homes provide loving, temporary care until our rescues find their forever homes. We are always looking for foster families.

Please visit our website at www.k-9lifesavers.org for additional information about K-9 Lifesavers. The website lists our available dogs, volunteer opportunities, foster information, and various ways to donate.

Please help us rescue more canines waiting for their second chance at life with a forever home! Adopt a rescue, foster, volunteer, or donate!
