***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation***
Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues.
WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS.
Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog.
We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes in WA state, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA.
Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, or cash. We no longer accept PayPal because of the percentage they take & their fees but if the potential adopter wants to pay the fees we will accept PayPal.
The call was put out for the need from several commercial breeders who needed some of their dogs gone, at a cost of course in the middle of the midwest. Of course they always want money for the dogs & of course once we know about them we are not leaving them & do what we have to do to help them. These innocent souls lives was instantly changing in that moment & only for the better. They were one of the very lucky ones. On this day we rescued a total of 14 lives of mums, dads & puppies including Charlie.
Now the real healing, love & devotion could begin & show Charlie how he is supposed to be loved & adored in a loving forever home just as they are in their foster home.
Charlie & his friends were bought back to the WA state where he is now so happy to be here & can’t wait to find his new loving devoted forever home.
Charlie now has the most beautiful sweet personality. At first he would run away from his foster mum because let’s face it he had never been in a loving home before & had to adjust to a normal life. His fur was also very sparse because of the lack of nutrition as the breeders feed them the worst food. He is now one confident little chap now with the help of his loving foster mum & he is now full of life love & energy & is up for any adventure that comes his way. His fur now looks amazing too. He is extremely sweet but is very loving & a very cuddly little lad. We know he adores being picked up & held & doesn’t mind it at all & will even run up to his foster mum for her to pick him up & get into her recycler with her.
The reality is, the foster homes are his real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding he can snuggle up in, a roof over his head that’s not outside.
Charlie is a wonderful eater & is not shy about eating now. At first he was uncertain because they are fed such a poor quality diet. He eats a combination of a clean diet meaning, raw fruits & vegetables, grains, eggs proteins & supplements along with treats. He absolutely loves his treats.
He adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something he did not get to experience ever until he was rescued. He will want to sleep in bed with you & already does with his foster mum & will wake her up by giving her kisses.
He is such a sweet boy who just wants to be loved & to make up for his past. He loves everyone & is so very sweet. He is wonderful with being bathed & groomed & good with the hairdryer.
He would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash as in his foster home he freely gets to go outside in the backyard.
Charlie rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when he went to be sold & when we got him & going home & to & from the vets with us & his loving foster home. But he does absolutely amazing in the car. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lad only. Charlie as you can imagine spent the first part of his life in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Charlie where someone is home during the day or he can go with his people wherever possibly he can go with them. When they find someone who treats them as they should be treated & loves them they get so attached to them.
Charlie is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be patient with him & never give up on him.
Charlie has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & we tested him in a daycare & he is currently with dogs in his loving foster home & we want him to go to a forever home with another little dog in his forever home.
Did we mention he loves a good outfit now. Just in time for winter.
Charlie is roughly 7 lbs & he is roughly 1.5 years old & a Pomeranian. He has put on weight since being in the rescue. Male, he was neutered & is microchipped & had a dental & up to date on his shots, including DHPP, bordatella, rabies & dewormed.
We have spent far more on Charlie with paying for him from a commercial breeder. Bringing him to WA with his travel costs, his transportation to WA. All of his medical care in WA & Omaha etc & bringing him to WA then her adoption fee comes close to covering.
Charlie has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had him around small children but we do do not recommend small children nor cats though & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats.
We were not there when Charlie was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is.
As with all of our rescues & Charlie’s friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Charlie potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond.
We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.
Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Charlie & going through our process and have read his listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on. Or you waste this rescues time, will remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit via WebEx or Zoom due to covid & followed by a meet & greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Charlie who understands his needs & that meet all the requirements for the special sweet little Charlie.
Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately.
Charlie has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.
