Heidi's Story

*PLEASE NOTE*: Expressing interest on PetFinder is welcome and encouraged, but all adoption applications must be submitted through the Rescued Rescuers website for consideration. Thank you for choosing to adopt!<br/>https://therescuedrescuers.org/adoption-application<br/><br/>Name: Heidi <br/>Age: 12 years old <br/>Weight: 13 lbs <br/>Sex/Spayed or Neutered?: female / spayed <br/>Coat: Short / Smooth<br/>Energy Level: low<br/>Adoption Fee: $250<br/>Located in Crestview, FL <br/>Contact: Amandabhomes@gmail.com<br/><br/>Hey Friends! Please welcome Ms Heidi to our wonderful little rescue! This pretty little girl was brought to a rural shelter as a stray and was never claimed. Another local rescue pulled her from the shelter and asked us if we could take her! When our foster home arrived to pick her up, she was told that this little girl was spicy and didnt like being picked up. Thats okay, We have experience with that! <br/><br/>It took a few days for Heidi to warm up in her foster home. Now that she is, we have learned several things about her. She seems to get along well with other small, calm dogs. She is doing very well with her potty training but will still have an accident occasionally. She is very independent and not overly clingy. She has been a little bitey when being picked up, but we hope that gets better once she gets her rotten teeth taken care of (July 1st). This little girl craves love and is looking for a soft place to land for her golden years. Let us know if you would like to meet her! <br/><br/>**You must submit an adoption application through our website (www.therescuedrescuers.org).

The Rescued Rescuers, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
If you are interested in adopting one (or more!) of our Rescues, please fill out an adoption application at: https://therescuedrescuers.org/ Please note that we require all animals within the home to be current on annual vetting services. This information will be verified by your vet. If your pet(s) are not up to date on their annual shots, please make an appointment with your vet and take care of this prior to submitting an application. We will not approve any application until all vetting on current pets within the home is completed. After a vet check has been approved, a home visit will be scheduled with the pup(s) so that the new pup(s) can be introduced to the new family and environment.  This is to ensure the safety of the pup(s) as well as any current pets in the home.  If you would like to get involved in any way please visit: https://therescuedrescuers.org/how-to-help
