Nix's Story

Meet Nix. She’s small, gentle, and full of quiet sweetness. Nix is a Dachshund mix who weighs about 15 pounds, and she won’t get much bigger. She’s a little over five months old. She starts out shy, so new places can feel scary at first. With patience, she settles in. Within a few days, she’ll cuddle and show her soft side. She’s very gentle and sweet. She does great with cats and would do well with children, with calm interactions and supervision around toddlers. She just wants to feel safe. Nix needs an adopter who understands that trust takes time. Give her that time, and she’ll give you her whole heart. Adoption fee: $75 ICARE Shelter Saturdays, 9 a.m. to noon Apply here: www.icarearkansas.com/application Once approved, we’ll contact you to schedule a meet-and-greet at a time that’s convenient for you.

Izard County Animal Rescue Effort (ICARE)'s Adoption Policy

1. Complete an Application We want every pet to find a true forever home, so we match based on long-term fit, not first-come. Please complete the application at www.icarearkansas.com/application . Our Adoption Committee reviews it, calls you, and walks through any questions. We talk about daily care, exercise, vet visits, and how your current pets and family may adjust. If you rent, we confirm pet approval with your landlord. We also contact your two personal references and your vet. If you don’t have a vet yet, we’ll just make sure we’re on the same page about ongoing medical care. 2. Meet the Pet(s) Once you’re approved, we’ll set up a time for you to meet the pet(s) you’re interested in. We suggest everyone in your home attend if possible so you can see how the pet fits with your family. 3. Pay the Fee and Sign the Contract When you pick your new family member, you’ll meet with our adoption coordinator to pay the fee and sign the contract. We’ll answer any last questions so you feel ready and excited. 4. Pick Up Your New Pet Pick-up day is a happy day. For dogs, please bring a collar, leash, and harness so the trip home is safe and calm. We’ll send you home with the pet’s medical records and anything else you need to get started.
