Malibu - FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED FOR BEAUTIFUL BIG GIRL!'s Story

Check out this gorgeous girl, Malibu!!<br/><br/>This gentle giant was found running down I-85, and thankfully picked up before something terrible happened! <br/><br/>She was brought to the shelter, terrified and emaciated, and wasn't doing well there with all the scary loud noises, smells, and sights.<br/><br/>She was urgent due to shutting down there, and we're so glad she was taken to foster and her life was saved!! <br/><br/>Mali is dog friendly, cuddly, and such a good girl in the house! She loves to play with her Boxer foster brother, and to gallop around in the fenced yard. :)<br/><br/>Speaking of which, we are requiring a fenced yard for her, as it's clear she'd never been walked on a leash before.. we are working on it, but she is very sensitive and if something scares her she will try to bolt, and that 80 lbs of muscle is hard to restrain lol!<br/><br/>Malibu is sweet, starts out shy, with all people, but we'd recommend kids at least 10 years old just due to her size so she doesn't knock anyone over!<br/><br/>Malibu is currently in a board & train program to help her come out of her shell and to work on her leash walking, which will end on 10/18. This is an INCREDIBLE opportunity for an adopter OR a foster to apply and get to have a professionally trained, beautiful girl fresh out of the program!!! You will get to meet with her trainer and learn everything you need to know, all at no additional cost to you! <br/><br/>Please copy and paste the links below to submit an application to adopt or foster our big girl Malibu!<br/><br/>ADOPT:<br/>https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/GARP/Dog<br/><br/>FOSTER:<br/>https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/GARP/Dog<br/><br/>Please also follow us on Facebook to keep up with all our Pals, upcoming events, and announcements!<br/><br/>https://www.facebook.com/share/ahFTecYpLt3bLPkf/?mibextid=qi2Omg

Rescue Pals, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in one of our Pals! Our adoption fees for dogs are: Puppies up to 1 Year Old : $400 Adult Dogs 1 - 9 Years : $350 Senior Dogs 10 - 12 Years : $300 Super Senior Dogs 12 + Years : $150 Kittens up to 1 Year Old : $125 Adult Cats 1 - 12 Years : $95 Senior Cats 12 + Years : $75 If multiple cats/kittens are adopted to the same home at the same time, each kitty after the first (youngest) will have their fee reduced by $25. All dogs and cats are or will be: spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Here is our adoption process: Applicants must be at least 21 years of age. Applicants must be ready for a new pet to come home immediately after the entire adoption process is complete and approved. We are not able to hold animals if you have travel coming up, etc., so please be prepared to make arrangements for your new pet if that is the case. After submitting an application, your information will be reviewed and a vet check will be done for your current and past pets (going back 5 years). Your pets should be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and on heartworm prevention. Veterinary medical exceptions will be taken into consideration for any of those items. If you and the pet you are applying for seem like a great fit, a member of our adoption team will contact you for a telephone interview. After that, a home check will be done, and then a meet and greet (maybe at the same time!). If all is well and everyone agrees that this is the right new family member for you, the adoption can be finalized at that time! Please note that we are an all-volunteer organization, and in some cases when multiple applications come in for the same pet we may not be able to respond to each applicant. If a pet no longer appears on Petfinder, it means he or she has been adopted. Applying for a pet does not place that animal on hold, or guarantee approval. Our goal is to make the very best match that will last a lifetime for the pet, so we hope everyone can understand and appreciate that. If your application is approved through 1st review and vet check, but we don't feel that the pet you're interested in is the right fit, we may suggest another who we feel would be a better fit for your lifestyle/what you're looking for. Thank you so much again for your interest in adopting a Pal, and helping us save lives!
