LIZZIE's Story

Lizzie (5) and Lilac (8) are a very special bonded mother and daughter duo who are searching for a patient and loving home together.<br/><br/>Both girls spent their entire lives in a puppy mill where they were used only for breeding. They lived in poor conditions with very little human interaction, socialization, or handling. Because of this, they came to us extremely overwhelmed by the world outside of the only life they had ever known.<br/><br/>When Lizzie and Lilac first arrived, they were terrified of their new surroundings. They spent most of their time hiding in the corner and struggled to adjust to the sudden change from their previous rabbit-hutch style living conditions. Over the past several months, they have been slowly working through rehabilitation and learning that people can be kind and that life can be safe and predictable.<br/><br/>Lilac, the mother, is understandably the more shy of the two. After spending eight years in a puppy mill without socialization, she is still very timid. She is not mean in any way and does enjoy gentle attention, but she will not seek it out and needs a patient person who understands that trust takes time.<br/><br/>Lizzie is a bit more outgoing than her mom and will come to people for attention once she gets to know them. Both girls are incredibly sweet and loving at heart, they simply need time and understanding to feel safe.<br/><br/>Lizzie and Lilac rely heavily on each other for comfort and confidence, and because of this strong bond they must be adopted together. They truly thrive on routine and having each other nearby.<br/><br/>Their future family must understand that these girls will need continued patience, consistency, and a slow transition into their new life. They are looking for a calm household willing to allow them to move at their own pace while continuing to build confidence.<br/><br/>Because they are still easily overwhelmed and can be flight risks, a secure fenced-in yard is required. They would do best in a quieter home without young children, as high energy environments can make them nervous. They are also not suitable for homes with cats.<br/><br/>Despite their difficult start in life, these girls have come so far during their time in rehabilitation. With the right family, patience, and continued guidance, Lizzie and Lilac have the potential to blossom into truly wonderful companions.<br/><br/>They have already endured more than most dogs ever should. Now they deserve the chance to experience what it means to finally be loved, safe, and home.<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE WAIVED.

Canine Partners Program Inc's Adoption Policy
ADOPTION PROCESS The Adoption Process will begin once the rescue has been spayed or neutered, given age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, heartworm tested, wormed, and flea treated. The rescue will have also received their own individual rehabilitation and obedience training. * An Adoption Application can be completed on this website. Please read our "Fine Print" page before completing the application. The questions are very extensive which assists us in providing the safest and most appropriate homes for our rescues. All questions must be answered and incomplete applications will NOT be reviewed. After you have submitted the application, a representative will contact you to discuss your application, answer any questions and possibly schedule a Meet n Greet. Adopting a pet is a lifetime commitment! Please do NOT submit an application unless everyone in the home is ready to adopt a pet. All family members must be committed to the care, training and attention your new pet will require. This includes a financial responsibility to provide vetting and routine care. * Meet n Greets are by appointment only and are scheduled by one of our representatives. All family members, including current pets, are required to come. This is your chance to spend a little time with the rescue and begin to learn about their personality. If the Meet n Greet is a success, a Home Inspection is then set up. * The Home Inspection is set up by a representative. They will come to your home to make sure you are ready for your new addition. They will look for safety hazards inside the home, check fencing, zip lines and tie outs etc. If changes are needed, they will guide you with advice on how to correct. When your home inspection passes then a Trial Run is set up. * A Trial Run is designed to help the rescue transition smoothly into your home. A representative will bring the rescue to your home and if it is determined that you have everything ready for your potential new family member, the rescue will stay with you on a trial basis. We require that the first 2-3 days of a Trial Run be strictly dedicated to the rescue. Please do not schedule any other obligations so your focus can be solely on helping him/her settle into your home and begin to learn your routine. We will send their food, a favorite toy, and a familiar article to help make their transition as seamless as possible. A Trial Run normally lasts 2-3 weeks. * If it is determined during the Trial Run that the rescue is a good fit for your family, a representative will make a follow-up visit and finalize the adoption. At this time, you will sign the Adoption Agreement and pay the adoption fee. It is mandatory that, by this visit, you have purchased a safe leash, an approved collar (martingale or buckle style) and a personal identification tag. Please know that adopting a rescue not only saves the life of that pet, it also allows us to save a 2nd life by opening another spot in our program.
