My story

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

TIGER - a sweet 11 year old teddy bear was adopted as a puppy from FWACC and found himself as a stray and on the EU list. Tiger was RESCUED by Weatherford Wags and has been with a wonderful temporary foster but she is leaving town on July 16 and we need a new temporary or permanent foster as we DO NOT want him to go to boarding (form below)

Tigers permanent foster that agreed to take him until adoption has since GHOSTED everyone leaving the rescue in a bind and we don’t want to board him so WE NEED YOU

From his wonderful temporary foster - Tiger has been decompressing and is not fully integrated into my home. He is not in a crate, I have a spare bedroom with a hallway that I've gated off and he hangs in that area. He does not have accidents nor does he tear things up or cause any damage to my home. I bring him up to my office with me during the day and he is occasionally in the yard or the house with my dog only. and I do take the two of them on walks in the evening together (she is an Alpha dog and he respects her 'position'). In addition to my real job I also dog-sit and my guests have very minimal contact with him, but they can see and smell each other through the gate. I separate them when he leaves his confines.

This sweet senior boy is 11 years old, 71 lbs, neutered and HW negative and as sweet as can be.

We do not have a facility; so meet and greets with potential adopters, pets and current pets are done on an appointment bases; sometimes at the potential adopter's home, or in a neutral location.
