Pearl's Story

Dog name: Pearl<br/> Gender: Female<br/> Age/weight: 1 year 16 lbs<br/> Breed: terrier mix<br/> Heartworm status: Negative<br/> Medications/Injuries: None<br/> Good with people? Yes<br/> Children? Yes, older children <br/> Dogs? Yes<br/> Cats? Probably<br/> Other animals? Do not know<br/> House trained? Mostly<br/> Crate trained? She does not like it eventually she settles<br/> Energy level: As she gets more comfortable medium energy <br/> Travel well? Yes, quiet in the crate when traveling <br/> Favorite toy/activity: Has not really played with toys<br/> Leash trained? Not completely <br/> Fence required? Yes<br/><br/>Pearls personality is slowly breaking through. She is so sweet. She always needs to know where her people are, but is getting more comfortable and is okay as long as she can see her person.<br/><br/>She is still timid and can cower, especially when it comes to putting her leash on, but we feel she will be more comfortable with consistency. <br/><br/>Pearl lets her foster know when she needs to go potty, but has had a few accidents, its a work in progress and she is taken out frequently. <br/><br/>It will take her a little time for her to get comfortable with people. A home that is calmer would be best for Pearl, and older children that would understand the need to be slow and respectful of her. <br/><br/>Since Pearl is still a little timid and scared, a secure fenced in yard would be necessary. <br/><br/>Pearl is great playing with other dogs, but would need to be in a home with another confident dog to really help her show her personality.

House of Hope Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
House of Hope Animal Rescue is foster-based. We are not a shelter and do not own a kennel where our dogs are kept. All of our dogs are in foster homes. Once your application is approved, your adoption coordinator will assist you in scheduling a date and time to meet dogs you are interested in at their foster homes. You must be willing to travel to the foster homes to meet potential dogs. Thanks for your understanding. APPLICATION PROCESS All potential adopters are required to complete an adoption application. That can be done online or you can download and complete then mail or email it to us. Once your application is received, we’ll call your references, including your Veterinarian. All of your pets must be current on vaccines and on preventatives.? Once all references are checked, we will get in touch with you to schedule a phone interview to go over your application and our adoption procedures. You may be contacted via email, so please keep an eye on your inbox, junk, and spam folders. Please know that we will reach out to you as soon as possible, but it can take up to 14 days depending on the volume of applications we are receiving. Please be patient with us.? After the phone interview we will set up a time for one of our volunteers to conduct a home visit. This is to ensure that your home is a safe environment for a dog and is the final step in the approval process.? Once your application is approved, you are ready to begin meeting dogs! Because we want each dog to go to the right forever home, it is not guaranteed that you will be approved for the dog for which you applied. In this case, we will work with you so that the right match is made for everyone involved. House of Hope spends a lot of time getting to know each dog so they can be placed with a family they are appropriate for as well as a family that is appropriate for them.?
