Happy Meal's Story

Happy Meal is coming up on his rescue anniversary. Let's help him find his forever home!<br/><br/>Happy has come a long way in his almost year of foster from anxious stray to absolute lover boy. His big shepherd personality has really come out after decompression and he can boast glowing reviews from his veterinary behavioralist team! Not only is Happy loyal and active, he loves treats and is a complete cuddle bug. He has been working very hard to become confident on his own and with the help of medication and a regular schedule, he can be left for up to 8 hours a day in his cozy kennel.<br/><br/>Even though he is past the puppy stage of life, he his playful and loves to romp in a fenced in yard. His curious side does still come out so he needs to be monitored at all times or in his crate to protect items around the house becoming unintended chew toys. Don't worry! This boy is type A and loves a routine so he has learned when bedtime is and will put himself to bed with a nice nylabone to chew.<br/><br/>Being a typical shepherd, he takes time to warm up to a new person but he is a Velcro dog once he does! If you are looking for a buddy to keep you company while you work from home then Happy Meal is the dog for you!<br/><br/>Recipe for success:<br/>-Someone who is home more than not. He's not a social butterfly who wants to go to dog parks or restaurant patios, he prefers chilling at home.<br/>-Fenced in yard (working on leash manners but a skilled escape artist)<br/>-Continue behavior medication and do a follow up appointment with Union Lake<br/>-Not cats or small animals (high prey drive)<br/>-No young kids (he doesn't always know his own strength)

A ReJoyceful Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
Thank you for considering A ReJoyceful Animal Rescue for your new fur baby! If you are interested in one of our animals, please fill out an application on our website at www.rejoycefulrescue.com for that animal. Please allow up to 72 business hours after submitting your application for a response. Our application process is as follows: 1. After your application has been received and reviewed, the foster parent of the animal will reach out to see if you have any specific questions regarding the animal. Prior to setting up a meet and greet, we will complete a vet check to ensure all animals currently in your home are up to date on vaccines, spayed or neutered and in good health. 2. Once your application has passed a vet check, we will set up a time for a meet and greet. The meet and greet is no-obligation and simply allow the foster to meet you and for you to meet them! We always host our meet and greets on a "neutral ground" if there are other animals and ensure proper introductions are done to allow safety for all. 3. Last but not least, if we both decide you might be the perfect furever family, we will reach out to set up a time for a home check. The purpose of the home check is simply to ensure the animal is heading to a safe environment. If necessary, our foster may point out items that can cause health issues or potential safety issues. 4. Once this process has been completed and approved, our finalization team will prepare an electronic contract for your signature confirming the adoption. Our adoption fee is $450 for dogs and $200 for cats. We ask, whenever possible, the hand off of your new fur family member is to be done at a local Petsmart to allow us to receive additional charity dollars to help our foundation. Your foster family will provide more information on this. We appreciate your patience during the process and pride ourselves on the best possible placement for our fosters. Please note, our applications are not "first come, first serve" and we will review each application equally to ensure the best home is selected for our animals. If you have any questions at any time, please email info@rejoycefulrescue.com.
