Dixy's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/>Please review our Adoption Process before filling out an application. If you would like to try a Foster to Adopt trial, please fill out an Adoption Application.<br/><br/>If you are only interested in temporarily Fostering one of our rescues, please fill out a Foster Application.<br/><br/>Meet Dixy!<br/>This adorable “Snoopy wannabe” is a sweet mutt, who is sadly the product of irresponsible dog ownership. The family didn’t sterilize their dogs and when the “oopsy litter” arrived, they were in dire need of help to place the puppies. Thankfully we were able to sterilize their dogs. We also helped place the pups, BUT there were a total of 8 puppies in that litter and we STILL have this little girl as the last remaining pup. She is growing up fast and in dire need of a family of her own, who will overlook her breed and welcome her without prejudice. Her mother is a Pitbull mix and the father a Husky, so we know this girl will be a nice medium sized breed when she is full grown. Our paperwork says she is a Terrier mix, but please do not inquire about her if you have an issue against the Bully breed in case she looks more Pitty when she is full grown. We can say she looks pretty dainty, especially her paws.<br/>Dixy is fostered among many other ARWOB dogs, such as Bonny and Shay, in case someone is looking to adopt two friends. She adores her caretaker, but can be a little shy with new people. She would really benefit from finding a foster family that can give her some one-on-one attention and provide her the socialization she needs (i.e. outings that will help her get over her insecurity and shyness). Dixy is a fantastic candidate for someone who is interested in adopting her, but would first like to try our foster-to-adopt program to see if she is a good fit for their family. Either a foster or adopter should have time required to meet the needs of a teen puppy, such as a flexible work schedule and the ability to provide potty training, socializing, etc.<br/>We have heard that Dixy's siblings are doing amazing and are growing fast just like Dixy. We just hope we can FINALLY find a forever loving home for Dixy before she reaches adulthood. To schedule a meet and greet in the 92111 zip code area, please submit an adoption application online TODAY at ARWOB.org<br/><br/>If you would like to meet one of our animals, PLEASE fill out an adoption application.<br/>Dog Adoption Application<br/>Cat Adoption Application<br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE IN THE MILITARY please fill out a short questionnaire in addition to the adoption application.<br/>Military Questionnaire

Animal Rescuers Without Borders,Inc.'s Adoption Policy
The A.R.W.O.B. group prides itself on carefully placing animals into responsible and loving homes. We care about the present and future lives of the many unwanted dogs and cats and strive to improve them so they can come to know stability, love and safety. For more information, please visit our website at www.arwob.org. Our adoption procedure is as follows: 1) Adoption Application filed by applicant (visit the applications page to fill one out!). We typically adopt dogs and cats to individuals or families located in San Diego County, Orange County and Los Angeles areas. However, we may consider potential adopters within California, Arizona, and Nevada (within a reasonable driving distance) under certain circumstances. We require that the application be approved ahead of time and a home check must be done via FaceTime Skype (we do not accept videos for this purpose). We would also require the potential adopter to come to San Diego to meet the animal in person and we recommend bringing any current pet(s) to see if they will get along. If the potential adopter opts out of the meet-n-greet with their existing animal(s) and if the new pet does not get along with their existing pets, we would require the adopter to drive back to San Diego to return the animal -- we cannot provide transportation. Our adoptions are time sensitive and our policy is that we do not place holds on any of our rescues. PLEASE NOTE: We have implemented a new policy for those who are currently serving in the military. IF YOU ARE IN THE MILITARY please fill out a short questionnaire in addition to the adoption application. 2) A play date between the applicant and rescue (dog or cat). An applicant MUST have an APPROVED online adoption application filed BEFORE scheduling a playdate at the animal's foster home.The playdate will ensure that the potential adopter and the dog/ cat they are interested in is the right match. If the dog/cat does not possess the qualities and behavioral traits the applicant is looking for, we can continue the adoption process by meeting another rescued dog or cat. You can also meet the animal you are interested in at scheduled adoption events. Approved applicants have priority to meet an animal over others. Please read the events page for more information about meeting an animal at an event and possibly taking them home afterward. 3) Home checks to ensure the safety of our rescues (If applicable). An ARWOB volunteer will contact you upon approval of your application (and the playdate appointment) to schedule a visit to your home. Here we will take a look at where the cat/dog will be living. Your home and yard must be safe and secure. 4) Adoption Contract and ID from applicant If everything checks out during the homecheck and we believe our rescued dog/ cat will live happily there, we will go ahead and sign the adoption contract to makes the adoption official. 5) Adoption fee Fees are different for both dogs and cats and are based on age and, sometimes, on the breed. Please visit the adoption fees page for a break down of all. 6) Denial of adoption applications We screen all of our adoption applications thoroughly in order to find the perfect home for our rescues. There may be times when we feel the adopter is not a good fit based on the answer to questions on their application. Please know that we vet each applicant with the animal's best interest in mind. In the event that your application is denied, you will receive an email letting you know of our decision. However, we will not be able to answer detailed questions regarding the denial.
