Fern's Story

AGE: 8 years WEIGHT: 5lbs Meet Fern! This tiny 5lb southern belle was rescued in Texas. After living as a stray, Fern has settled right in to the foster good life, playing with toys and snuggling in blankets. Fern is looking for her forever lap for her golden years. Her foster says: "Fern is an extremely sweet and gentle little soul. This weekend was probably her first time experiencing cold and snow, and although she doesn't like it, she is so brave and goes on her walks like a champ! She is a mellow dog for a Chihuahua who hasn't barked once, and seems to like other dogs although she is timid because she is aware of her tiny size. Fern has a great appetite, loves sleeping under blankets and being close to her human. She would prefer to be a lap dog if it's up to her. I was able to bathe her and clean her ears without any fight at all. She is adjusting to her new environment well. If you are looking for 100% pure love in a tiny package - Fern is this little lady!" INTERESTED IN ADOPTING? To adopt Fern, apply on our website www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt and email adopt.truenorthrescue@gmail.com to follow up on your application. PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE. IF THIS LISTING IS UP, THE DOG IS NOT ADOPTED YET. 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.

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.
