June Bug's Story

Meet June Bug June Bug is a 4-year-old, 7-pound black-and-white Chihuahua with a spirit that shines brighter than most. Found as a stray, she had already endured more than any dog ever should. She came to us with one eye missing and the other ruptured beyond repair. That eye had to be removed as well, leaving June Bug completely blind. But here’s the incredible part… she doesn’t let that slow her down one bit. This tiny girl gets around just fine and navigates her world with bravery, curiosity, and heart. She quickly maps out her surroundings and moves with confidence once she feels safe. She may not see the world, but she feels it deeply — especially when she’s curled up in your lap soaking up love. June Bug is affectionate, gentle, smart, independent when she wants to be, and a proud little couch potato when snuggle time rolls around. She’s very social with new people and greets them with sweetness and trust. She lives peacefully with both dogs and cats and does just fine with them. She is crate trained and mostly potty trained with only rare accidents. She responds well to gentle verbal correction and truly aims to please. June Bug would thrive in a quiet home with a securely fenced yard (about a 3-foot standard fence is fine). She does love to adventure outside, taking in all the smells and sounds of the world. Because she is completely blind, she will need a patient, understanding adopter who will give her time to learn her surroundings and feel safe. She cannot go to a home with young children, as predictability and calm are very important for her. Despite everything she’s been through, June Bug is friendly, loving, brave, and full of life. She has many good years ahead of her — years filled with lap naps, gentle kisses, and the quiet joy of simply being loved. She may not see you… but she will know you. And she will love you with her whole heart. Could you be the safe, peaceful home this little survivor has been waiting for? She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, micro chipped, and is unmanly flea/tick and heartworm prevention Her adoption fee is $350. Please follow the link below for the adoption application. Note: applicants must live within one hour of Toledo Ohio. 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).
