Comet's Story

Comet<br/>Thirteen years old, 15lbs<br/>Rescued in the southwest<br/>Vaccinated and altered <br/><br/>Meet Comet! This spunky 13-year-old (her foster suspects she may actually be younger) is full of energy — moderate energy in general but genuinely spins-in-circles excited the moment she spots her leash. She's a lovely mix of independent and people-oriented, comfortable retreating to her crate as a safe space but just as happy hanging out with her people. She handled the long journey from Texas remarkably well, hopping off the van tail wagging, and continues to take new situations in stride better than most dogs her foster has cared for.<br/><br/>Comet is a genuine people-person, always ready for pets from any available hand, and she might love other dogs even more — she tries to say hi and play with every pup she passes on walks. She's fully potty and crate trained, walks beautifully on leash (walks are clearly her favorite thing in the world), and does great with alone time, whether that's with guests or on her own. She doesn't know any formal commands yet, but she's easy to motivate with walks, treats, and love. <br/><br/>Comet would do well as an only dog or with a companion, fits apartment living nicely, and would suit a moderate-to-calm household — she loves her walks but tires a bit faster these days (it’s also been very hot). She's adaptable enough to thrive with an older, less active adopter or a young active family, and she's independent enough to be fine with someone who's away part of the day. Her foster describes her as spunky, sweet, and wonderfully go-with-the-flow — a joyful old soul who still knows how to have fun<br/><br/>INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?<br/>To adopt apply on our website www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt and email adopt@truenorthrescue.org to follow up on your application.<br/><br/>PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE. IF THIS LISTING IS UP, THE DOG IS NOT ADOPTED YET.<br/><br/>Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue. We choose a home based on the BEST FIT for EACH dog and approve on a dog by dog basis. Thank you!

True North Pet Rescue Mission's Adoption Policy
First Step: Submit Your Application True North does not issue blanket approvals, we consider the needs of each specific dog when reviewing applications. If you don't have a specific dog in mind when applying, please note this on your application so that we can keep this in mind when reviewing. We require home photos for all applicants, but can accept a video replacement. Please enter as much detail as possible on your application, this helps us better understand what you are looking for and how this relates to the needs of the dog you have applied for. For puppies under 12 weeks, we require a care plan. This includes a plan for when the dog will be left alone, as puppies younger than 12 weeks should not be left alone longer than 2-3 hours at a time. Please Note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, it is not always possible to reply to everyone. If your application is approved, you can expect the following. Second Step: Application Review & Approval 1. If your application is approved, an email will be sent connecting you with the dog's current foster. At this time, you may schedule a mutually convenient time to meet. 2. After meeting, you have 24 hours to confirm if you would like to move forward with finalizing the adoption. After this, if we have not heard from you, we will begin scheduling other meets. 3. If you choose to finalize, we will issue an adoption contract via email. Once the signed agreement has been electronically returned along with the adoption fee (which will be disclosed prior to adopting), you will be all set to coordinate for pick-up with the foster! Adoption Fees: Our adoption fees are comparable to those found amongst other well-known rescues in the city. We only accept electronic payments for adoption fees.
