Carolina's Story

Carolina is a stunning female Dutch X German Shepherd estimated around 2 years of age. Carolina will capture your heart with her soulful eyes and stunning coat. Carolina was a stray therefore we do not know her history or background prior to arrival at the shelter. Carolina is a sweet girl who meets new people with energy and kisses. She enjoys making new friends and is a social, outgoing personality. Carolina is a certified Goodest Girl with her wicked smarts, high-energy antics, and people pleaser attitude. Carolina would thrive with advanced obedience and we could see her easily excelling in a number of dog sports. She has a good brain and an even better temperament. Carolina has not been around children under 10 years of age at this time but we trust that with some guidance she would do well with children. Carolina LOVES her some play time with other dogs! She is a playgroup superstar with her agility and love of chase games. Carolina has navigated meeting new dogs well and is used to a wide variety of personalities from other playful young-uns to less patient seniors. Carolina has done well meeting new dogs on outings and is usually reserved and appropriate in her approach. Carolina has not been tested with cats or small dogs at this time. Carolina is a looker who is looking for a home to give her the adventure, excitement, and guidance every Shepherd needs. If you're the home for her email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit Tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for our FAQs

Tier Haven Rescue, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

Tier Haven requires an adoption application to be completed and processed prior to meeting or adopting any of our dogs. As a completely foster based organization Tier Haven relies on the application to help ensure that adopters are meeting dogs that are suitable for their household and that the dogs are meeting adopters committed to their individual needs. We do not have a central facility nor do we allow drop in visits on our foster homes for respect of their privacy and time. The application is completed via email and you may email Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com to obtain an application. We rely on your application to assist in matching you with a suitable dog and ask that you provide us with as much information as possible about why you're seeking a Shepherd and your expectations for the dog. When submitting an application please contact your vet clinic and provide them with a release of information and also inform your personal references that they will be contacted. Once your application is processed you will be contacted by a volunteer to discuss potential dogs and arrange a meet and greet. Since we are a foster based group we only allow up to three (3) dogs on each meet and greet to keep it manageable for everyone. Meet and greets are often held at public locations to respect the privacy of our foster homes and they are scheduled at the discretion of the foster homes. Tier Haven charges an adoption fee of $350 + taxes for each dog. This includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, heart-worm test, micro-chip, and *monthly preventative care while with our organization*. Tier Haven relies on the adoption fee to continue helping future dogs therefore we are unable to reduce the fee for any reason. *This means that if the dog has been with Tier Haven for longer than a month we can guarantee that they are up to date on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. This does not mean we will continue to provide monthly preventatives for the dog beyond its adoption* We do allow our adopters to take a dog home from their first meet and greet if they wish to do so. If you are intending to take a dog home please come prepared with a leash, collar, and your adoption fee of $350 plus tax. Each adoption is on a 10 day trial during which the adoption fee is refundable should the dog be returned for any reason. Even beyond our trial period we require our dogs to be returned to our care should they ever need rehomed for any reason - we are here for our dogs for their lifetime. If you have any questions about our adoption process that haven't been covered here please email them to us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com. ****Surrender Policy**** Tier Haven is unable to accept any owner surrenders due to the overwhelming number of Shepherds in shelters across the state. If you would like to discuss alternatives to rehoming such as training, dog day cares, and behavior management please email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com.
