Penny's Story

Meet Penny! <br/><br/>Penny is a beautiful 5-year-old Mini Labradoodle weighing about 20 pounds, and this sweet girl is learning what it means to finally feel safe and loved. <br/><br/>Penny came to Dogworks from a puppy mill situation, so the world is still pretty new and sometimes scary to her. She is very shy when meeting new people and may hide when she is frightened, but she is making progress every day. Once she starts to trust you, you get to see more and more of the sweet girl hiding underneath that nervous exterior.<br/><br/>Penny is a very gentle, quiet and laid-back girl. Most of the time, you’ll find her happily lying by her foster mom’s feet. She is becoming more comfortable every day and is even starting to run and play—which is such a wonderful thing to see! She especially enjoys chewing and playing with an old frozen rag.<br/><br/>Penny does well with other dogs and would love a home with a confident, friendly canine companion to help show her the ropes. She has not been around cats or children yet, so we don’t know how she would do with either.<br/><br/>She is crate trained and does very well with her potty training, with only an occasional accident. She walks on a leash and responds well to gentle verbal correction. Penny is not a jumper, so a standard securely fenced yard would be fine for her.<br/><br/>Because of her history, Penny will need a patient family who understands that she isn’t going to become a social butterfly overnight. She needs someone willing to give her time, patience and plenty of reassurance while she learns that people can be trusted. <br/><br/>She can also be a little too interested in electrical cords, so her new family will need to make sure those are safely out of reach. When Penny is scared, she may try to bolt, so a secure environment and careful attention to doors will be especially important while she settles in.<br/><br/>Penny isn’t looking for a perfect home. She’s looking for her person—someone who will give her the time she needs and celebrate every little bit of progress along the way.<br/><br/>And we promise, watching a shy little puppy mill survivor discover how wonderful life can be is pretty special. <br/><br/>Penny is ready to find the patient, loving family she deserves.<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 $350.<br/><br/>Please follow the link below for her adoption application. Note: applicant 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).
