Meet Dottie, our darling little foster. She has the most beautiful white coat and has brown "dots" on her ears. Dottie is 13 weeks old, a lab mix and was born deaf. She is very trainable and smart. Dottie stays close to us and our dogs, watching our every move. She is very playful, sweet and is learning something new every day. She will need a home that will have a dog that she can learn cues and behaviors from. That makes a big difference in teaching her. A fenced in yard is also necessary to keep her safe, since she can't hear danger coming at her ( cars, other animals or people that might harm her. She sleeps like a champ, in her crate, through the night and daytime naps. Our adoption process is usually quick but may take up to two weeks. When you find an animal you are interested in, we ask that you fill out an application on our website, PawsUp4Rescue.org/adopting as a first step so we can determine if your family is a good fit for the animal. If you are, then we will contact you to arrange a time for you and your family to meet the animal so you can decide if it is a good fit. If you currently have dogs, we require them to be present at the meeting to ensure it's a good fit all around. Once compatibility is determined, we move on to the paperwork and finalize the adoption. If the meet is not a good fit, we will keep your application on file for 6 months and will gladly consider your family for another dog.
