My story

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

Meet Snickerdoodle, a four-month-old terrier mix. She’s one of five little pups named after delicious cookies, and just like her namesake, Snickerdoodle is a little shy at first but oh-so-sweet once she gets comfortable. With her bright eyes and adorable curly tail, she’s a bundle of charm waiting to warm your heart. Her beautiful eyes and curly tail are just a few of her adorable little self!

Snickerdoodle may be the shy one of the bunch, but don’t let that fool you—beneath her initial hesitation is a pup full of affection and love, just waiting for the right family to bring it out. She’ll need a little patience and time to feel secure, but once she knows she’s safe, you’ll find her curled up in your lap or nuzzling your hand for gentle pets.
Though she’s still young and learning the ropes of puppy life, Snickerdoodle is incredibly observant. She watches the world with curiosity from a safe spot, taking in everything. Once she feels confident, she’s eager to follow her siblings and explore the world—one cautious paw at a time.
She has started on her vetting, vaccines, microchipped, dewormed, on heartworm prevention and will soon be spayed. She is ready for her foster to adopt home until vetting is complete.
Snickerdoodle’s ideal family would be one that understands her gentle spirit and can give her the time and space she needs to blossom.

More about this rescue

OUR MISSION STATEMENT:  To better the lives of the homeless, abused, abandoned and neglected animals in our community, to the best of our ability and as resources permit, through fostering, vetting, socialization and adoption. To grow our TNR (trap, neuter, release) program for feral and community cats in order to help control the over-population problem. To help reunite lost or found animals with their families. To bring education and awareness to our community regarding responsible pet ownership, ways they can help protect these animals and things they can do to have a pro-active role in helping us carry out our mission.

​WHO WE ARE:  PAWS of Adams County, IN is a 501c3 non-profit organization.  We are a dedicated ALL VOLUNTEER, FOSTER BASED pet rescue. Our hope is to someday secure land and a building to operate an animal shelter in the community where we can carry on our mission on a larger scale.

​WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP:  Since we do not receive any county, state or federal funding to operate our rescue, our lifeline to helping these animals comes solely from donations, fundraisers and our adoption fees.  It truly takes a village!  This is where you can help!      

 FOSTER:  Open your heart and home to an animal while they await adoption. As a foster family, you provide the love and care, and PAWS covers the expense of food, supplies and vetting.  You play a huge roll in giving these animals a second chance at life!  Occasionally, we also get requests for a respite or compassion foster from someone needing to temporarily place their own animal in a foster home for unexpected reasons.

​VOLUNTEER:  We have numerous volunteer opportunities!  Help with fundraisers and events. Grant writing. Transport animals to/from the vet or spay/neuter clinic. Set and check humane live traps for our TNR program.  Help search for lost animals. Offer to hold or contain a found animal while searching for its family.

​DONATE:  Monetary donations can be mailed to: PAWS of Adams County - P.O. Box 482 - Decatur, IN  46733 or visit our website at www.pawsofadamscounty and click on the “donate” button.  We welcome donations of food, scoopable cat litter, bedding, towels, pet toys and supplies, gift cards, and professional services such as grooming, nail trimming, bathing and medical/legal/professional services. DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE!

​ADOPT:  Consider adding a new member to your family! They can enrich your life and offer unconditional love!
