Alex & Cleo's Story

Alex and Cleo didn’t get the life they deserved.<br/>They were originally adopted by a retired gentleman hoping for companionship after the loss of his wife. Unfortunately, due to declining mobility and mental health he was unable to properly care for them. <br/>For far too long, these sweet pups lived confined to a second-story balcony, watching the world go by without being part of it.

Calls were made. But instead of things getting better, they were shut inside the apartment, further isolated.<br/>Now their situation has become urgent. They are at risk of being seized by Animal Control, where their future becomes uncertain as they enter the shelter system once again.<br/><br/>Despite everything they’ve been through, Alex and Cleo are remain loving, resilient dogs. These bonded Rottweiler/Shepherd mixes (about 1½–2 years old) have held onto their gentle, playful spirits.<br/>• They adore each other and must stay together<br/>• Great with kids and friendly with dogs<br/>• Energetic, affectionate, and eager to finally live<br/>• Fully vetted and ready for a fresh start—one filled with walks, playtime, love, and stability.<br/>________________________________________<br/>What they need right now:<br/><br/>Alex and Cleo don’t need perfection. They just need a chance. A committed foster or forever home immediately—someone who will keep them together and give them the life they’ve been missing.<br/>Please reach out ASAP if you can help. Their future depends on it.<br/>Let’s rewrite their story—together. ❤️

Pawareness Foundation, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
We advertise adoptable animals to the general public through various websites. All interests are vetted via text/phone call, and those that meet the criteria are invited to a meet and greet, including their pets and family (usually at a public place like a park). If the meet goes well, then we require an application; upon receipt of application, we run a background check and call vet references / personal references listed. If the application passes review (usually takes a couple of days) we set up the adoption. Usually, I prefer to do the home visit at the same time as the adoption, so that I can drop off the animal and help the adopters intro to the new home and family. However, if the travel is too far (as we adopt in a large radius), I do a virtual home visit with a video call and we set up a halfway meet or they come pick up the animal after the virtual home visit is completed.
