Matilda's Story

Meet Matilda (Mattie)!<br/><br/>This incredible girl has overcome more than most ever will. Born blind and later injured after being hit by a car, Mattie spent her early life on a short chain- lonely and neglected. But those days are behind her!<br/><br/>Once rescued, Mattie received the love, care, and attention she deserved- and has blossomed into one of the happiest, most loving pups you will ever meet. Her blindness does not slow her down one bit! When exploring new spaces, we use gentle words to help her 'map' her surroundings, and after just one time, she moves like she has been there forever.<br/><br/>Mattie is the definition of strength, resilience, and pure joy. She adores toys, treats and curling up in your lap for snuggles. Her tail never stops wagging, and her sweet spirit lights up every space she enters.<br/><br/>If you are looking for a loyal, loving companion who will remind you every day what it means to overcome and love unconditionally, Mattie is your girl!

Rescue Ridge Dog Rescue of Alabama's Adoption Policy
Our adoption process is very thorough. We have a 7 page adoption application, a phone interview and an in-person interview with a home visit. If they have other animals we also arrange for meet and greets and proper introductions. We check tax records online to verify home ownership, Google search and social media search to verify any concerns (arrests, prior animal ownership, family dynamics and employment). We also check the national sex offender registry. We assist with choosing the right dog for each family based on home set-up, stairs, fenced yard, leash walking, other dogs/cats, children in the home and dog ownership experience. Every animal goes on a 2 week adoption trial with the family and if everyone feels comfortable the adoption agreement contract is signed. If at any time the adoption does not work we take back all of our dogs. All dogs are also chipped with us listed as the alternate contact.
