My story

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

Don't let her name fool you -- Salt is as sweet as can be! This precious girl will thrive in a loving, attentive home.

Gentle and affectionate, Salt shares her foster home with a variety of friends: children, dogs, a cat, and even a parrot! She is often shy in new situations, but she's gaining confidence every day. Salt would do well as your one and only or as a companion with friendly dogs, cats, and/or older children -- as long as they are mindful of her small size and occasional timidity. Slow introductions and verbal encouragement will help her continue to blossom!

Extremely intelligent, Salt has mastered Sit, Kennel, Outside, Inside; and is learning Down, will happily go into her crate, stands by the door to wait to go potty outside, and is practicing other household manners. She sleeps through the night without a peep. As she gets older, she may enjoy agility challenges or other training endeavors.

Although Salt loves walks and other adventures, she also needs to burn off her puppy energy in a yard with a secure fence. She especially loves playing in the grass with her sister, Pepa, who is also up for adoption.

If you're looking for a friendly and tenderhearted companion, Salt is the perfect pairing. She can't wait to explore, play, and snuggle with her forever family!

HISTORY
As part of a surprise litter, Salt was taken in by a Good Samaritan.

HEALTH
Salt is receiving her puppy vaccinations, and will be microchipped and spayed when age appropriate.

PHYSICAL
Salt has soft black fur with pinches of white on her face, chest, belly, and toes.

Adoption Process

Our goal is finding lifelong, loving homes for our animals, so we try to find the best match between animal and adopter. We can help advise you on which animals to meet based on your situation.

You can meet some of our animals at our weekend adoption events, or we can arrange for a meeting in the foster home. If it’s a good match, the foster parent will come to visit your home in person. This is to make sure your home is safe and secure for a new companion animal.

Note: IAR makes every effort to please our adopters, but our first concern must be for the animal’s welfare. We reserve the right to deny any application.

More about this rescue

IAR started with one woman's big dreams, a bigger heart, and a very distinctive purple pickup truck that helped her rescue countless of unwanted, abused, and homeless Triangle pets. Originally founded in 1994, IAR earned an official 501(c)(3) status in 1995. We are governed by a Board of Directors, managed by elected officers, and introduced IAR’s first paid position, General Manager, in June 2021. This role will assist with elevating our collective compassion to new heights and strengthening IAR’s impact as a whole.

Our mission is to rescue and provide safe and responsible care for homeless, abandoned, and abused animals. We shall strive to help all animals in need through our service programs. We will serve our communities through promotion of spay/neuter for all companion animals, and the education of children and adults in humane care, respect and responsibility for animals on this earth.
