My story

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

NAME: Paddy (f) 



 



BREED: Chihuahua cross



AGE: 8 months



WEIGHT: 8 pounds



 



LIKES: All human interaction, chewing on bones, going for walks, finding mischief to get into.



 



DISLIKES: Scared of the dark and noises out of nowhere, but she's working on being so brave! 



 



PERSONALITY TRAITS: Paddy is a hyper pup with a wiggly body. She loves humans and other dogs (she plays well with a Pitbull that’s 4 times her size in her foster home). She has no concept of personal space, but she does settle into snuggles after awhile, like a good girl. 



 



POTTY TRAINING STATUS: Paddy is able to hold her bladder for almost 6 hours at this point. She does well going outside and going right to potty. 



 



CRATE TRAINING STATUS: Little Paddy whines for the first few minutes, then settles in, as long as she's got something to chew on. She sleeps just fine in the crate, only making noise when she needs to go out. 



 



EXTRAS/MISC.: She doesn't have a bark, just makes funny pips and squeaks when she's playing. Paddy has been on walks up the butte (on leash) with no problem, and could easily be a good walking or hiking buddy.



 



To further inquire about PADDY, submit an online application via our website.

Tell us about yourself, family, other pets, and how PADDY will mesh with your lifestyle. 



 



Qualifying applicants will be contacted by our Adoption Coordinator with next steps and an opportunity to set up a Meet & Greet. 



 



Our process is NOT a “first come, first served” process. (We DO NOT hold pets for later consideration.) Our team carefully reviews and interviews applicants for the best possible fit for each adoptable pet, and potential family.  



 



We look forward to facilitating a positive and solid adoption for PADDY, as well as her future family.



 



*Fostered in Eugene/Springfield, Oregon

Qualifying applicants will be contacted by our Adoption Coordinator with information about the next steps and setting up a Meet and Greet. Our process is not a “first come, first served” process. Our team carefully reviews and interviews applicants to find the best fit for each adoptable dog and potential family. Filling out an application in no way guarantees you a dog or a response email as we get hundreds of applications and choose the best home for the dog.



Distemper/Parvo boosters,  and rabies shot, microchip, and spay/neuter surgery are included with the adoption fee.  You will also receive a PetSmart puppy packet with hundreds of dollars of savings, a FREE bag of food, 30 minute private training session with a certified dog trainer, and a free checkup at Banfield. 



Potential adopters must live within 30 miles of Eugene, Oregon. If you live outside the 30 mile radius, still send us an email, as we will can make exceptions if the circumstances are optimal for the dog or puppy.

Additional adoption info

The process for adoption through our rescue begins with the adoption application. Once accepted, a meet and greet with the dogs is arranged and includes everyone in the family including other pets. If the dog seems like a good fit, he/she is brought to the home where the dog will be living to make sure it is an appropriate home....ie. dog friendly, fenced yard, etc. Finally, an adoption agreement is signed to insure that the adopter understands what is expected of them.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs are in foster homes prior to finding their forever homes. Please contact us if you see a dog you'd like to meet. We also participate in adoption events at local pet stores.
