Onyx's Story

Needs foster now!! ONYX~a beautiful, sweet boy who has learned a lot with the trainer! Has lots of energy but also has an “OFF” button to enjoy calm down time! This is a dog who will make someone a rewarding companion (& w/trainer’s help) social skills. He would be great as an only dog or could be a playmate with proper introductions. You may work during the next 2 weeks w/trainer. Read more & do application on www.lovemuttsrescue.org Wonderful leash skills. Enjoyed staying quietly at outdoor lunches w/other dogs around!<br/>>>>Onyx (great update from Currant Foster) is such a sweet boy, about 1 yr old. He lived with a dog trainer for 6 weeks, so is very well behaved! House/potty trained. Walks great on a leash. Crate trained - doesn't make a peep at night, & goes right in the crate for naps when his humans are working or running errands. Just needs an outlet for his energy, so would be best with an owner who takes him for frequent walks or runs, & has the time/energy to play with him. Just spend an hour helping him get all that energy out, then he’ll be fast asleep for the next few hours. Apply to meet ! www.lovemuttsrescue.org <br/>appears to be lots Labrador..

Love Mutts Rescue, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Adoption Methods: FOSTER TO ADOPT: · This method of adoption gives you a 2 week trial period with a pet to see if they are the right fit. This does not apply to puppies and kittens. During that time, the pet remains the property of the rescue. After the two week time period, the pet will be considered adopted and the rescue will no longer be responsible for vetting. Finalizing is a matter of filling out a few paperwork items with you to register your pet’s microchip and such. · The full adoption fee is due before taking the pet home. If it does not work out, we refund the fee less $50. This $50 can be applied towards another pet or is tax deductible as a donation. FULL ADOPTION: · With this method there is no trial period. The pet will officially become yours the day you take them home. If the adoption doesn’t work out you are to return the pet to us versus trying to re-home them. There is no refund if you decide to return the pet. ADOPTION PROCESS: · If you are interested in adopting a pet through Love Mutts Rescue, please follow this link to fill out our online application: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeND4BFvU9lEyxod8gmQhFmtdb1_qHuxLgvNRv4hAQluYROLg/viewform · We attempt to process applications within 3-5 business days. Let your references know we will be contacting them so that we can complete your application in a timely manner. If you have an approved application we can do same day adoptions. MEETING OUR DOGS & CATS: · Our rescue is foster based so our pets are in foster homes throughout the Triangle area. With an approved application, you may schedule a meet and greet appointment to meet a specific pet. Our pets can also be met at weekend adoption events. Our calendar of events can be viewed at www.lovemuttsrescue.org.
