Interested in adoption? The first step is an application at paddyspaws.blogspot.com. Please do not apply if pets in the home are not up to date per our website requirements or are not altered. Our rescue adopts to Wisconsin and Illinois. Our requirements for Illinois applications are: excellent vet history, no children under 7 in the home, and an owned home. Wisconsin does not have these requirements, though we will not consider applications where pets are missing core veterinary care.
Sparkles is about ten years old and weighs around 8 pounds. She's a cute little girl who has experience living with other dogs and a cat. She loves dinnertime, laying in the sun, and disappearing under blankets. She loves taking walks and needs a couple of blocks to warm up, but then she really starts prancing with a smile on her face and sometimes gets the zoomies if there's a big pile of leaves!
Sparkles is a little timid at first, so she needs a home that understands the fastest way to gain her trust is to let her go at her own pace. She's made huge progress with that during her time in her foster home in Madison, WI, and enthusiastically greets guests she's met before. She'd love to find a home with other calm dogs or she would also be fine as an only dog.
Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and once
approved a meet and greet with the dog. Adoption fee is $250.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption process works a bit different than other shelters and rescues and we don't have a facility because we are foster based. Like most foster-based organizations, we set up all appointments on an individual basis. Prior to any meet and greets, we require an approved application so we will need to go through all the steps before having you meet any of the available dogs here in Wisconsin. We cannot guarantee the availability of any dog until all application materials are submitted and approved (including homevisit and reference calls). With the nature of our rescue, there is no shortage of available dogs just like this one, so we do highly recommend that folks continue through the process so that we can help find you a match!
Applicants must be 21 or older and we do not make exceptions to this age requirement. All applicants should be residing in their permanent residence at time of application. If you are moving, we do ask that you wait to apply until you have completely moved into your new residence before completing an application. If you are renting, the name and number of your landlord must be provided (we cannot process without), and permission must be given to contact him or her. If permission is not given, we will not continue to process the application. We do not adopt dogs that are listed on the restricted breed list to any applicants who are renting.
We start with the completed application and then complete a background check to ensure the safety of our home visit representatives and our rescue pets. We invite applicants to share more about potential issues on your background check, but do want to note that we will not send a representative to a home where crimes of a violent nature have been committed. Next, we check vet records. Please do not apply if you have a dog or cat that is not altered, or is not up to date on vaccinations, unless there is a documented medical reason. We require a minimum of a rabies vaccination for cats or current wellness exam, and rabies and DHLPP for dogs in the home. Heartworm preventative and testing is also a high priority on our vet checks.
Please note:
Prior to completing an application, please contact your veterinarian to give permission for a release of records. Vet information must be provided for any and all pets who have been in your care in the last five years.
The next step is a homevisit with family and one of our representatives. Home visits can take several weeks to schedule due to volunteer availability and based on your location. Please note: we are 100% volunteer run and we are limited in the areas we can get to. Some locations can take an extended time to locate a representative. Representatives may call your references before or after the visit. We do not accept applications from other states, only applications from Wisconsin.

More about this rescue
Our primary goal is to find adoptive homes for these amazing animals that are located in shelters, rescues and foster homes. How does it work? You fill out a Paddy's Paws Application which will be submitted for approval for adoption to the Houston rescues.
Our adoption process works a bit different than other shelters and rescues! Paddy's Paws serves as a coordinator for Houston rescues. We send out the applications, arrange homevisits and secure back up fosters for each of the dogs that will be transported here. Like most foster-based organizations, we do not have a facility and set up all appointments on an individual basis. Prior to any meet and greets, we require an approved application so we will need to go through all the steps before having you meet any of the available dogs here in Wisconsin.
The application, reference checks and homevisit are considered part of the general approval process and we cannot guarantee that a specific dog will still be available when you complete the process, but doing so will get you access to our "match making" service where you will have bios and pictures of multiple dogs that may be exactly what you're looking for! And, of course, there's always the possibility that the dog that sparked your initial interest will still be available!
