My story

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

Rudi is a very sweet, playful 11 week old poodle mix puppy. His foster mom says he has done well in just 3 weeks. He goes on pee pads and everytime he is brought out to backyard. He gobbles his 3 meals a day as he was underweight. He steals shoes, cat beds, eye glasses, magazines... and carries them off to chew! But keeping things out of reach and substituting chew toys solves that.

He is getting used to his harness and walking on leash outside. Doesn't like traffic noise, but in time, will get used to it.   He likes the 5 year old dog and 10 year old cat in the house, but when they won't play, he barks at them.... so he is given a toy instead to play tug with.  He sleeps through the night in his crate in the bedroom with mom with no accidents!!  He is a real sweetheart and will give someone lots of love!
 
His ideal home would be with someone who is willing to work on his training and address his chewing and puppy energy is a positive appropriate manner.  He's ready, willing and able to learn new behaviours and would do well in a puppy class

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our process begins with an online pre adoption questionnaire followed by a telephone interview
Once both have been completed we consider suitability and if we feel the adoption candidate is a potential match we arrange a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in
From there we schedule a home visit and check personal and veterinary references.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs are in foster homes so meet and greets are by appointment only

Foster Homes
Sadly, each new day brings a flood of emails and telephone pleas to help yet another abandoned dear dog. We try and help these displaced dogs through our rescue efforts and networking. We are always in search of new foster homes where a dog can be cared for and loved until a permanent home is found. Speaking of Dogs Rescue covers food, medical attention and all the supplies required for the dogs in foster care. Foster parents need be responsible and patient people who will provide a safe environment for our dogs. A foster contract must be signed. This is a serious responsibility; however the experience is very rewarding. If you can open your heart and home to a foster dog please contact us. We have a comprehensive Foster Manual available for people who are considering becoming a foster parent.

Wish List
