My story

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

Clarissa’s a 3yo 22lb JRT mix. She’s dog and kid friendly. She’s still working on house training but is pee pad trained. She loves running around her fosters secure fenced in yard. She loves to play ball and would love a family with kids.

Clarissa MUST have a secure fenced in yard, another well balanced, confident active dog along with people who are on board to show leadership, consistency, structure and to continue working on training. If your home DOES NOT fit this please DO NOT put an application in. We will not call anyone not a fit. Also, we will be concentrating on local to foster applications 1st since home checks and meets with all humans and animals in home is needed at meet. Our fosters are all volunteers so aren’t always able to travel too far.

Clarissa came to Tiny Paws from a hoarding house where she was bred and had puppies. She’s spayed, vaccinated, HW negative and microchipped. Currently fostered in Westampton, NJ. If your home fits the bio and MUST haves and you’re interested in applying to adopt please do so at www.tprescue.org

Additional adoption info

How can I Adopt a Tiny Dog?
When you are ready to adopt a new friend, we will ask you to complete our friendly screening process, which ensures a successful and safe adoption.

Complete an Adoption Application
We will have a brief conversation with you to find out about your daily schedule, determine your preferences and needs, and talk about your previous experience with pets.
We will check two personal references who know how you are with animals.
If applicable, we will call your veterinarian to ensure that previous pets have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and well cared for.
For renters, we will check with your landlord to ensure that dogs are permitted.
Lastly, we will do a home check. We will arrange a visit with the dog and your family including all animals in your home, typically at your home. This is a great opportunity for you to get valuable input on how to integrate your new pet into your home. If we agree it is a mutually good fit, you will sign an adoption contract, pay the adoption fee and take the new dog into your home.

This process typically takes a few days and then you are ready to take your new friend home.
