My personality

My story

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

Merry is A Sweet Young Pup Learning Life Outside The Puppy Mill. Merry was born in a puppy mill with a bleak future ahead as a puppy mom. One one had, she won the lotto when the breeder no longer had use for her however on the other hand, it also could have ended badly for her .We were able to secure her safe passage out and she joined our rescue and now has a promising future ahead.

Merry is a Poodle Bichon gal with a happy disposition. Coming from a mill she does not have the exposure to every day things and skill set another puppy does. She is a bit timid and needs to learn about sounds like sirens,, traffic, riding in a car, etc.. She needs a home to take the time and patience to slowly introduce her to everyday life, She needs to learn bathroom skills as well. All puppies love to chew so puppy proofing your home is something to plan on.

Merry would benefit in a home with another gentle dog to show her the ropes and help her burn off some of her puppy play energy. She MUST have a secure fenced in yard for her potty place to keep her safe from being a flight hazard, We highly recommend puppy training classes to help create stronger bonds and establish a clear channel of communication with each other, Training also helps you bounce off daily situations with a trainer in real time for support,

Merry is fully vetted, She has been spayed, received age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, Subsequent vaccines are at the expense of her adopter, Her adoption donation is $1200.00. She is on the hunt for her own completely committed family, Little Dogs can live to be 20+ years old so she wants to be sure her family is all in for better or for worse!

IF INTERESTED IN A PUPPY (UNDER 12 MONTHS): YOU MUST HAVE A FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE OR SOMEONE HOME ALL DAY. PUPPIES NEED TO BE LET OUT TO POTTY EVERY COUPLE OF HOURS APART, THEY NEED SOCIALIZATION AND BONDING AND NEED TRAINING (HOUSETRAINING AND BEHAVIORAL TRAINING). IF YOU WORK LONG HOURS, HAVE A BUSY SOCIAL SCHEDULE OR NOT FINANCIALLY SECURE THEN A PUPPY IS NOT FOR YOU.

We adopt in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits, If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate to adopt Merry please fill out an application for her adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/aoption

Additional adoption info

To adopt any animal from Rescue Tails we require a completed and verified adoption application. Once we can review the application, we can set up a meet and greet. We ask that all members of the household including pets are available for us and prospective pet to meet. Providing that goes well, we will set an appointment with you for a home visit. If all goes well we can proceed to the final step of finalizing the adoption.

More about this rescue

Rescue Tails Animal Welfare is dedicated to rehoming pets from high kill shelters. We choose an animal one at a time and evaluate what issues caused the animal to end up in the shelter and address those issues. Most often we find behavioral issues and/or medical issues . We deal with whatever it is to the best of our ability and then place the pet up for adoption to a responsible pet guardian. It is our goal to prevent the pet from returning to the system again. We work with the pets and carefully match them to their forever homes.
