Ozzie's Story

Meet Ozzie! This two-year-old Schnauzer mix may be small, but don't let that fool you - Ozzie's got a big bark and an even bigger personality! He's a confident little guy who isn't afraid to let you (and the mailman, and that suspicious-looking leaf) know exactly how he feels. Ozzie's got a bit of attitude - the kind that says, "I know I'm cute, and I run the place." But underneath that sassy streak is a loyal, loving companion who just needs the right human to understand his quirks. Ozzie would thrive in a home that appreciates a dog with a little spunk and a lot of character. He's not a pushover, but he's a sweetheart once he's decided you're his person. If you're looking for a spirited sidekick with style, smarts, and the softest of fur - Ozzie's ready to bark his way into your heart. Our adoption process is usually quick but may take up to two weeks. When you find an animal you are interested in, we ask that you fill out an application on our website, PawsUp4Rescue.org/adopting as a first step so we can determine if your family is a good fit for the animal. If you are, then we will contact you to arrange a time for you and your family to meet the animal so you can decide if it is a good fit. If you currently have dogs, we require them to be present at the meeting to ensure it's a good fit all around. Once compatibility is determined, we move on to the paperwork and finalize the adoption. If the meet is not a good fit, we will keep your application on file for 6 months and will gladly consider your family for another dog.

Paws Up 4 Rescue's Adoption Policy

1. The first step is to fill out an application on our website PawsUp4Rescue.org/adoptions. This lets us know you are serious about adopting. We will call and check with your vet to make certain your current pets are up-to-date on their vaccinations and have been spayed or neutered. If you rent, we will also check with your landlord to make sure it's okay that you are adding a family member to your household. 2. The next step is to set up a time to meet your potential pet. If you've already met and fallen in love at one of our adoption events, we can proceed to set up a home visit to see how the animal gets along with the other residents of your home. *Home visits are for the purpose of assessing the relationship between all animals in the home. 3. If all goes well, we proceed to the paperwork stages and end with a new family photograph to share on our Facebook page!
