vercome with joy when we come home or when her harness and leash come out. She loves running through snow and although it's possible that this is the first year in her past 9 that she's gone on actual walks, she's a fast learner. She proudly wears her pink princess sweater-dress and prances on a relatively straight line. Jade is fairly low maintenance once she knows you're there for her and she's loved. She often lays by herself, but likes her humans close by. There is some barking when we first leave, but she quiets down fairly quickly. She does enjoy alerting everyone of what is happening outside, but goes to lay down when we shut the blinds. She's not recommended for anyone sharing a wall with neighbours. House Training Jade is peepad trained and doesn't know how to ask to go outside. She will pee and poop outside if put outside with other dogs. She's surprisingly active and playful for a senior and whips up and down stairs no problem. She likes playing fetch with plush toys and "search" in which the dogs look for hidden treats. She gets along with the other small dogs in the house, but will let them know if she wants her space. She is not used to a kennel, so we have the pleasure of having her sleep between us. She's so happy to be  there that we haven't had the heart to try a dog bed yet. Since her dental surgery she's been on soft food and we are now introducing kibble back into her diet. She occasionally gets raw food to help clean her remaining teeth. She loves chomping on RAW chicken necks. Jade is a pleasure to foster and we hope that she finds a family that wants to spend quality time with her. Pee Pad trained Age 9 Pee Pad trained and house trained Kennel trained for the vehicle not the home it causes me anxiety to be in the kennel when you are not home. I will bark with happiness when you come home from work but I settle down again. I will bark when people come to the door too. I am not suitable for Condos, Apartments or Townhouses. *Looking for a single detached home with fully fenced secure yard* CATS - NO Large Breed Dogs - NO It is in our policies and procedures We do not adopt out our rescues to homes with large breed dogs in the home.

Spayed Microchipped Dewormed with Drontal Plus Vaccines DA2VPP Rabies Vaccine How it works to meet me: 1) Email my rescue to ask when their next meet and greet day is. 2) Tell my rescue about where you live your home, yard family, pets in the home? How long you work away from home? Is your home quiet or lots of visitors? This gives my rescue an idea if this would be a fit for me or not. 3) If our meeting goes well my rescue will send you an adoption application to fill out. 4) If your application is approved then a home visit will be set up with 2 volunteers within 2 weeks. Remember they are volunteers they are busy too. 5) Home visit once approved then your references are called. If it all checks out next you are asked to sign up for dog obedience training classes. Please sign up with Joanna at For The Love Of Paws Dog Training or Racheal at Rae Rae's Way. 6) Once training classes have been signed up for I get to come home with you. Why all these steps you ask?

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
