Hansel's Story

We interrupt your Tuesday for this important message from Hansel and Gretel. <br/><br/>Please LIKE AND SHARE, they would ask but as they don’t have opposible thumbs, we had a hard enough time translating their voice to text below, don’t ask!! <br/><br/>“Seriously we just don’t understand, spit it out, what did we do wrong? Look into our 👀! <br/><br/>Director Beth got us excited, said we had all sorts of interest and approved adopters when poof they were gone, family emergencies? Sure? In the blink of an eye, over the holidays we were orphans all over again? She had even told people we were leaving so as not to disappoint interested families, we warned her that was the kiss of application death. 🙄 <br/><br/>Actually we aren’t much for holiday adoptions as it’s a crazy time and people go a bit nuts gifting pets like us. We heard the big dogs talking about the tree you can’t chew, the new shoes you get yelled at for eying, kids dragging them around… Do you know where your Tickle Me Elmo is now? Don’t get us wrong, we are a gift to any home just not a living holiday gift. 💝 <br/><br/>So have you regrouped? Back from family visits, family sent packing and now wanna fill your whole house with puppy antics for the next 15 plus years? <br/><br/>BTW the DNA is in. We know we are Bitsas, bits of this and bits a that but…<br/><br/>The results are in: Boxer, Mountain Cur, Yorkie, Golden Retriever and super Mutt. <br/><br/>True BITSA’s, just waiting for their new families. Their size est is unknown but we believe low/medium range. Around 10-12 lbs at 11 weeks, have some internet fun running the breeds and weight at 10 weeks for estimates.” <br/>❤️🐾❤️ Sincerely, <br/><br/>HANSEL dark boy & GRETEL Lighter gal <br/><br/>Just in from Gretel’s foster: “Oh yes she is an absolute dream pup! I'll write it for you tonight with pics! Watch for it” <br/><br/>Hansel has heen hanging with the group at Director Beth’s getting lots of love and attention. Sweet shorty boy hoping for a family to learn and share. Gretel can be a tad reserved, good with other dogs and loves puppy playtime but prefers people time. Needs continued work on leash and house training-still a puppy. <br/><br/>Knoxville TN <br/><br/>♦️🛑 READ THE TOP PINNED POST ON THIS RESCUE FB PAGE FOR ALL THINGS ADOPTION and THE APPLICATION. Director Beth worked hard on offering that information and we know she gets a bit sad when people ignore it. <br/><br/>Www.recycledbestfriends.org <br/><br/>More photos to come, these are from mid Nov.

We have a standard foster/adoption application that requires answering questions, vet reference and 2 personal references. After we receive the application, an application checker reviews the application and calls the vet and personal references. The director then reviews the application checkers feedback and calls the applicant. The director then determined whether to approve the application or not and the best dog for the applicant.
