My story

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

This ladies man is looking for a home where he is the only male. Other male dogs are okay but no male humans, please! Smoke prefers women and is very leery of men. He will be most happy living with only women. In his current foster home he does well with the other dogs and cats. He does like his own space but tolerates them living with him. Upon meeting new people Smoke is quite reserved and makes them earn his trust. He would do best in a quiet home where there isn't a lot of commotion or people coming and going due to his limited social skills and preference for peace and quiet. Kids are also not on Smoke's short list for his new family. They make him nervous and are too loud and busy for his liking. Smoke's leash skills are excellent and he knows some basic commands. He is perfect in the house and is 100% potty trained. If you have a quiet, calm and stable environment with only adult females please apply! Smoke is waiting for you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

To learn all about our adoption process please visit the following link: https://www.vocalforpets.org/how-to-adopt-a-pet/

We require an adoption fee for both dogs and cats, an application, and a home visit. We end the process with our adoption contract.

If you are interested in applying for one of our animals, please visit our website www.vocalforpets.org. Our dog and cat applications can be found under the "Paperwork" heading or on the "Adopt" page.

We accept multiple applications on all of our animals; we believe in finding the best fit home. We don't place animals on a first come, first serve basis. Once we receive your application, we will reach out to you to review your application IF we feel you could potentially provide the best fit home for the animal.

Go meet their pets

We DO NOT have a shelter facility open to the public. We are a foster based program so most of our animals live with our volunteers. We think this is pretty great! Having adoptable animals in foster homes teaches them pet manners such as housebreaking and social skills. It also allows us to learn a lot about the animals and helps us determine the type of home the animal will be most successful in.

If you are wondering how to meet an animal you are interested in adopting, you have to fill out an application first. Then, if we feel you could be a fit, we set up a home visit and meet and greet with the animal.

More about this rescue

We have seen the issues of pet overpopulation firsthand. Our board members and volunteers have worked with local animal shelters and have seen the thousands of animals in Marion County that have nowhere to go, who are often abandoned and/or killed. We also recognize the strength of the human-animal bond and have witnessed the situations that animals often fall into during a family crisis. We have made it our mission to help these animals. We hope you will join us!
