Georgie's Story

Meet Georgie!<br/><br/>Georgie is a gentle old soul who was found wandering in southern Ohio, and now he’s ready to spend his golden years somewhere safe, quiet, and full of love.<br/><br/>This 12-year-old Poodle boy may be a senior, but he still has so much heart to give. Georgie is blind, which means the world can feel a little overwhelming at times—but once he learns his surroundings, he settles in and finds comfort in routine. He’s a quiet, independent little guy who truly just wants a peaceful place to call home.<br/><br/>Georgie can be timid when meeting new people and may nip if he’s startled or unsure, so he’ll need a patient adopter who understands his needs and will give him the time and space to feel secure. Because of this, a home without young children is best.<br/><br/>He does well with other dogs and cats, and would likely enjoy the calm companionship of another mellow pet. Georgie is both crate trained and potty trained, and while he’s not leash-trained, he prefers the comfort of a secure, fenced yard where he can safely explore.<br/><br/>This sweet “old man” is the definition of a couch potato—he’s happiest lounging nearby, soaking up the peace and quiet of home life. He doesn’t need much… just a soft place to land, a steady routine, and someone willing to love him exactly as he is.<br/><br/> Georgie’s ideal home:<br/> • Quiet, low-traffic environment<br/> • Patient and understanding adopter<br/> • No young children<br/> • Fenced yard required<br/> • Calm companion animals welcome<br/><br/>Georgie has been through a lot, and now he deserves nothing more than comfort, kindness, and a forever home to live out his days surrounded by love.<br/><br/>Georgie is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, micro chipped, and is on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $125<br/><br/>Please follow the link below for the adoption application. Note: applicants must live within one hour of Toledo, Ohio.<br/><br/>http://www.dogworksohio.com/adoption-application.html

DogWorks Inc. Canine Rescue and Placement's Adoption Policy
Dogworks strives to place dogs into permanent homes based on the dogs' personalities and yours. To adopt a dog, we require a completed application, signed adoption contract, and home visit. Applications can be submitted online, by mail, or in person at adoption events. Once your application has been submitted, we will contact your references and consider suitability. You will be contacted by phone or email, typically within 4 business days, to make arrangements for adoption. If a particular dog is not placed with you, it does not mean that your application has been rejected. Dogworks receives multiple applications for some dogs. Foster families always have the first option to adopt. We do not approve applications on a first come basis as we strive for placement that is best for the dog and adoptive family. The home environment, family composition and yard are very important considerations in our decision to place a dog in a home. Some dogs do not do well with young children or cats, and our hounds require a fenced yard as examples of our decision process. Adoption fees are variable (typically $125-$500.00) and are listed with the description of each dog. All fees collected are used to cover rescue expenses, including foster care and veterinary expenses. Adoption fee will be refunded if you decide that the dog is not compatible with your family within 2 weeks. All dogs have received age appropriate vaccinations, GI dewormer, and heartworm test prior to adoption if they are old enough. Adult dogs and puppies older than 12 weeks are spayed/neutered. Adopters of younger puppies may be required to sign an agreement to complete spay/neuter by 5 months of age. We will assist with spay/neuter costs. All of our dogs and puppies will be microchipped prior to adoption. Adopters will receive a copy of medical records when adoption contract has been signed and adoption fees have been paid in full. Requirements for adoption: Please be aware that your adoption application WILL NOT be approved by Dogworks unless ALL of these criteria are met: >Adopters must be within a one hour radius of Toledo. >Adopters must be at least 21 years of age. >Veterinary reference must be positive. >All dogs in the home must be spayed/neutered. >All members of the household must be in agreement to adopt. >Individual needs of the dog must be met in prospective home (e.g., fully fenced yard for all hounds).
