Mabel's Story

This is Mabel! She’s a big sweetie. She likes toys and playing with them, and someone else. She likes watching out the windows. Her bark is very intimidating, but I have seen zero aggression in her. <br/>If you sit on the floor, she’ll climb into your lap and gently flop down on top of you, she wants to be hugged/cuddled/petted. She loves scratches all over her body. She doesn’t beg for food beyond looking over at you or sitting by you and watching you eat for a minute or two. She doesn’t like going into the kennel, but does with a bribe/treat. She’s very vocal and will talk for attention, those whiney grumbly noises pitties sometimes make. She’s good on leash or on lead/tie out. She seems to understand me for the most part: outside, inside, walk, sit, paw, etc.

Cause For Paws's Adoption Policy

In order to encourage folks to rescue homeless Orphans, we try to make the rescue experience as non-invasive and pleasant as possible. First, an application is completed prior to meeting any of our orphans. Since we do not have a shelter, it’s important to be able to pre-qualify folks that will be making appointments with fosters, to meet any of our orphans. We do a vet check, to verify all current or previous dogs are up to date on vaccines, heartworm testing, heartworm prevention, and are either spayed or neutered. We may also contact references listed on the application when there is no previous vet information, or where more information is needed. We’ll then contact you to arrange a home visit, which is merely an opportunity to ask and answer any questions regarding our process. Since most of our orphans have already been in a situation that was not right for them, we want to do whatever it takes to allow them to succeed. It is not our intent to set a dog or a family up for failure.

Most of our group is made up of volunteers that were previously with Dob...
