Peanut's Story

Meet Peanut! <br/><br/>Peanut is a sweet 9-year-old Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix weighing just under 8 pounds, with a soft apricot coat and an even softer heart. After sadly losing her beloved owner, Peanut found her way to DogWorks and is now looking for a new family to love.<br/><br/>This little lady is the perfect combination of affectionate and independent. She enjoys following her people from room to room, keeping them company throughout the day, but she's also happy to curl up in a cozy dog bed or on a soft blanket for a nap. One of Peanut's cutest habits is rolling upside down in the grass and soaking up all the attention she can get. Belly rubs are her absolute favorite!<br/><br/>Peanut gets excited when she sees her leash because she loves going for walks, and she's also a wonderful passenger in the car. She is crate trained, sleeps quietly through the night, and is nearly fully house trained with only occasional accidents. At bedtime, she happily settles into her crate with a treat, a blanket over the crate, and a little background music.<br/><br/>While Peanut can be a bit reserved when meeting new people, she warms up once she gets to know you and becomes a loyal, loving companion. She gets along well with other dogs and could enjoy having a canine friend, but she'd also be perfectly content as your one-and-only furry companion. She has been around cats without showing much interest.<br/><br/>Peanut isn't much for toys or games—she'd much rather spend her time relaxing with her family and getting plenty of affection. Like many dogs, she's not a big fan of the vacuum cleaner, and if something makes her uncomfortable, she may let out a growl to express herself. She also prefers to eat her meals in peace and can be protective of food when she's in her crate.<br/><br/>Her ideal home would be one where she can enjoy leisurely walks, plenty of companionship, and lots of love. A fenced yard would be a bonus since she enjoys exploring and running around outdoors, but a home committed to regular walks could also be a great fit.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a gentle, devoted companion who will happily be your shadow and your best friend, Peanut may be the perfect match for you.<br/><br/>She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and is on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>Her adoption fee is $200.<br/><br/>Follow the link below for the adoption application. Note: all applicants must live within one hour of Toledo, Ohio.<br/><br/>http://www.dogworksohio.com/adoption-application.html

DogWorks Inc. Canine Rescue and Placement's Adoption Policy
Dogworks strives to place dogs into permanent homes based on the dogs' personalities and yours. To adopt a dog, we require a completed application, signed adoption contract, and home visit. Applications can be submitted online, by mail, or in person at adoption events. Once your application has been submitted, we will contact your references and consider suitability. You will be contacted by phone or email, typically within 4 business days, to make arrangements for adoption. If a particular dog is not placed with you, it does not mean that your application has been rejected. Dogworks receives multiple applications for some dogs. Foster families always have the first option to adopt. We do not approve applications on a first come basis as we strive for placement that is best for the dog and adoptive family. The home environment, family composition and yard are very important considerations in our decision to place a dog in a home. Some dogs do not do well with young children or cats, and our hounds require a fenced yard as examples of our decision process. Adoption fees are variable (typically $125-$500.00) and are listed with the description of each dog. All fees collected are used to cover rescue expenses, including foster care and veterinary expenses. Adoption fee will be refunded if you decide that the dog is not compatible with your family within 2 weeks. All dogs have received age appropriate vaccinations, GI dewormer, and heartworm test prior to adoption if they are old enough. Adult dogs and puppies older than 12 weeks are spayed/neutered. Adopters of younger puppies may be required to sign an agreement to complete spay/neuter by 5 months of age. We will assist with spay/neuter costs. All of our dogs and puppies will be microchipped prior to adoption. Adopters will receive a copy of medical records when adoption contract has been signed and adoption fees have been paid in full. Requirements for adoption: Please be aware that your adoption application WILL NOT be approved by Dogworks unless ALL of these criteria are met: >Adopters must be within a one hour radius of Toledo. >Adopters must be at least 21 years of age. >Veterinary reference must be positive. >All dogs in the home must be spayed/neutered. >All members of the household must be in agreement to adopt. >Individual needs of the dog must be met in prospective home (e.g., fully fenced yard for all hounds).
