Greta's Story

Meet Greta <br/><br/>Greta is a sweet 9-year-old Pomeranian/Husky mix weighing around 18 pounds, and this little girl has been through more than she ever should have. Greta came to a veterinarian’s office to be euthanized simply because she was no longer wanted as a breeder. Thankfully, she was given a second chance and is now learning what it’s like to be loved and cared for.<br/><br/>Greta is a quiet, mellow girl who really enjoys just hanging out with her people. She’ll greet you when you come through the door and then go about her business, but you’ll usually find her nearby. Whether you’re cooking, taking a shower, or relaxing and watching TV, Greta will be right there keeping an eye on you. She’s like a little shadow. <br/><br/>Greta can be a little shy when meeting new people and needs some time to warm up. Once she feels comfortable with you, though, she loves cuddling up beside you on the couch. She’s happiest in a calm, quiet home where she can relax and enjoy her people.<br/><br/>Greta does well with both dogs and cats and would love a home with another furry friend. She would do best with children 12 and older. She does not require a fenced yard, but she must be kept securely on a tie-out or leash when outside, as she can be a bolter. She is not currently leash trained.<br/><br/>Greta is not yet potty trained or crate trained, so her new family will need to be patient and willing to continue working with her. She is afraid of the vacuum and will hide or stay out of the way when she’s scared.<br/><br/>Greta has come a long way since arriving in foster care. She initially barked when left alone, but as she has become more comfortable and settled into her foster home, that has stopped.<br/><br/>Greta is looking for someone who will give her the time, patience, and love she deserves. After everything she has been through, she deserves to spend her golden years knowing she is finally home. <br/><br/>Greta is spayed and ready to find her forever family!<br/><br/>She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, micro chipped, and is unmanly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>Her adoption fee is $150.<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).
