Only apply if you understand the additional maintenance and cost these dear hair-not-fur souls need and are willing to commit to life for such care.<br/><br/>Fiona has been incredible for her baths, haircuts, and nail trims. She has become so gentle and trusting of us.<br/><br/><br/>Personality<br/><br/>Fiona can be an exuberant puppy who likes to keep up with her brothers and sisters. At the same time, she is one of the more gentler and laidback Saints. Fiona is usually the first to settle in and ask to be held or will lay down next to our feet. She is quiet and observant. She gives the best hugs! She looks out for her littermate named Lolita and likes to keep an eye on her. They love to nap together, too.<br/><br/>Ideal Home<br/><br/>It is ideal for Fiona to be in a home with other small dogs or cats around. She would not do well in a home as the only dog, especially if her people are gone all day at work. Families with children are case-by-case.<br/><br/>Fiona will especially thrive in a home that can give her companionship day and night. She’d be okay for a few hours on her own with her siblings if you provided her with puzzles and things to do while you’re away. <br/><br/>Plan on sharing your sofa and bedroom with Fiona. She will want to be by your side, no matter where you are and what you are doing. <br/><br/>If you have a very secure fenced-in backyard for running and playing, this is ideal for Fiona. She is going to be a little girl, even full grown. She will need exercise but not miles and miles of daily hiking like a working dog. She is a companion animal in the truest sense of the word. Her goal is to love and be loved. <br/><br/><br/>Love and Commitment <br/><br/>At Animal Saints Rescue Society, our goal is to keep dogs out of overcapacity animal control facilities and out of a re-homing cycle. We place the dogs we save into lifetime families. With this in mind, we seek families who understand that an adoption is a lifetime commitment. The families who adopt from us believe that love is not a feeling, it is a decision. Some humans still believe it’s okay to try out a dog for a few weeks, a few months, or even a few years — then discard when they get bored or don’t want to deal with emotional or physical ailments. We are looking for the empathetic, kind, and patient humans in this world who view these Animal Saints as family, and they will do whatever it takes to give them what they need. <br/><br/>Will that family be you? We look forward to finding out and receiving your application!
