Bridgett - ARR's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/><br/>Meet Bridgett!<br/><br/>Bridgett is a sweet, gentle girl with a quiet nature and an easygoing personality. A resilient puppy mill survivor, she is still learning what it means to be a beloved pet, but she is making steady progress and enjoys being part of the daily activity around her.<br/><br/>Bridgett was born with a smaller right eye and is visually impaired on that side, but it does not slow her down! She navigates her surroundings comfortably and enjoys keeping up with the activity around her. Bridgett receives inexpensive daily eye drops as part of her regular routine, takes them very well, and loves being held for her care.<br/><br/>This independent little lady has a low-to-moderate energy level and is happy to observe the action around her. She enjoys toys—especially taking them out of the toy box—and has a charming curiosity about everyday things. Bridgett is also very food-motivated, which can be helpful as she continues to learn routines and build confidence.<br/><br/>Bridgett gets along well with other dogs and has no aggressive or dominant tendencies. She could do well as an only dog or with a calm canine companion. She is quiet overall, though she may bark occasionally.<br/><br/>Bridgett does well with her house-training when kept on a consistent schedule for outdoor potty breaks. She is accustomed to going outside on a leash and could be a good fit for an apartment or home, provided she has regular opportunities to go out. She can manage stairs going up but is still unsure about going down them, so a home with limited stairs or a patient family willing to help her feel secure would be ideal.<br/><br/>Bridgett recently had a dental cleaning and lost quite a few teeth, so she prefers her kibble softened with a little water or mixed with soft food. She eats well and appreciates this simple extra bit of care at mealtime.<br/><br/>At bedtime, Bridgett enjoys the comfort of a human bed but is also fine settling on her own. She is looking for a patient, loving home that will appreciate her gentle spirit, respect her independence, and give her the time and reassurance she needs to continue blossoming.<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE:<br/>If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances. If you go to the<br/><br/>individual webpage of our dogs<br/><br/>, you will be able to get more information each dog.<br/><br/>Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.<br/><br/>Our Adoption Process<br/><br/>The adoption process has several steps involved.<br/><br/>Please review prior to submitting an application.<br/>Our adoption process is detailed here:<br/><br/>http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption<br/><br/>Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.<br/><br/>Special Requirements<br/><br/>Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.<br/><br/>The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.<br/>No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.<br/>At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.<br/><br/>Out of State Adoptions<br/><br/>We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.<br/>We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
