Helen's Story

Helen is a very sweet girl. Her EDOB is 7/2010 and she weighs 35 lbs. She is up to date on all of her shots and she is fixed. Helen is Ok with some people but she can be nervous around people that she does not know. Helen does vocalize a bit and is only suited for a large home with a large backyard as she has a very high energy level and needs to run around. She has some issues with accidents in the house and has issues with walking on a leash. She does not do well with cats, kids, or other dogs and has to be the only animal in a home. Helen has minor chronic skin issue which does require weekly medication to help.We do not have a central location to see our dogs. Meeting any dog is by appointment ONLY currently. Appointments can be set up to meet any dog in San Diego. Currently we are unable to do any out-of-state adoptions. If you are interested in a particular dog please FILL OUT an Adoption Application at our website @ http://bajadogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt/adopt and we can schedule you for an appointment to meet with a particular dog if it is available. We do require an application if you are interested in adoption. If you are interested in potentially adopting please fill out an application at http://bajadogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt/adopt. Your application will be reviewed and you will be placed on a waiting list for the dog(s). If your name comes up on the waiting list(s) we will contact you.

Baja Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

1. Fill out an application for the dog you would like to meet. Do this immediately, as this starts the process. 2. We will follow up with you in about 48 hours via email. 3. If your application is approved and the dog is available. We will set an appointment for you to meet the dog you are interested in the following Saturday. We will ask for a refundable deposit ahead of time to set the appointment, and will outline reasons why we would not refund it to you (basically flaking on your appointment with no communication). The deposit can be through paypal or credit card online or Venmo •PayPal – info@bajadogrescue.org •Online –info@Bajadogrescue.org •Venmo – @baja-dogrescue If prompted enter 2240 •Zelle – info@bajadogrescue.org ***Bring a hard copy of your application or you will have to fill out a new one*** 4. If you have an appointment, you have first "dibs" on the dog. Make one even if you are not 100% sure because someone else could end up making one and you will miss out. We only make one appointment per dog, so you are still able to go meet the dog if you do not get one, you just will not be guaranteed it won't be adopted before you can do so. 5. The deposit will be applied to your adoption fee should you decide to adopt the dog, so bring the difference! Just in case, even! Do not miss out on the dog because of this. 6. Fill out the adoptions contract once you decide to adopt and we will give you all the vet records for your vet to start a file on the dog. 7. Remember—We are all volunteering our time. Our text number is 702-637-0895. e-mail info@bajadogrescue.org
