My story

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

We are looking for a Forever in Foster home for tiny Jasmine

Jasmine is a spunky 15 year old, 5 pound Maltese toy poodle mix who was surrendered to a shelter. She has recently had a dental and only has 6 teeth remaining. Her eyes are cloudy but she can see well enough to get around the house and lead the parade on a walk. We are not sure about her hearing but she will respond to your foot tapping on the floor or her name if you are close by. Jasmine is quite needy and always wants to be with her person if you are sitting or moving around the house. Currently she is living with two other small dogs but needs to be the only pup in her Forever in Foster home if possible - she prefers to have her human all to herself. She is not aggressive with the other dogs, but wants them to know you belong to her and can become vocal about things.

She loves to go for walks and is able to walk quite a distance considering her age. She needs a monthly shot of Librela for her arthritis in her back legs, which the rescue will cover the cost of. She will bark to go outside but if you miss her signals she may have an accident in the house, or use her pee pad. Jasmine will only go accompanied in the backyard. On nice weather days she will follow you around the yard after she takes care of business but on cold days she runs quickly back into the house.

With only 6 teeth left she is currently on a soft food diet for the most part but loves a bit of kibble as a treat. She sleeps on the bed and cuddles on the couch or chair you are sitting on. She has just recently shown an interest in chasing a ball and will sometimes bring it back to you.

Jasmine is looking for someone who will let her be the center of their attention and give her a soft place to land for her remaining years.

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.
