Rosa's Story

Rosa is a 4 year old 12 pound, mohawk sporting terrier mix. She is the sweetest girl, loves to be by your side but also can be independent. She is house trained, leash trained, loves to cuddle, take walks, roll in green grass, and is up for adventure or a nice calm and peaceful life. <br/><br/>Rosa is fostered in Cascadia, Oregon. We are about an hour from Corvallis, Eugene, Sisters, Salem and 2 from Portland and Newport. We will meet you part way if you are coming from Portland or farther. <br/><br/>This good girl will do best in a calm, adult only home in which folks are home more than not. We seek a crate free home though she is fine to travel in a crate if that is your preference. She gets long with other small easygoing dogs. She has done well out and about. We think she would be fine with dog savvy cats, and had no reaction to the one cat she has visited. <br/><br/>Rosa is spayed, vaccinated, de-wormed, and micro-chipped. Her adoption fee is $350. <br/><br/>This little lady has had some scary things in her past, but given one week in rescue, she is already happy to be touched and held, so she will need to more special treatment than a rescue dog savvy easy intro to her new life, and extra time to warm up to a man. <br/><br/>A great home for Rosa and her must haves include: <br/>1. An owned home with a securely fenced yard. <br/>2. Folks home more than not, though Rosa has no trouble staying home alone. <br/>3. Adopters who are rescue dog savvy, and who treat their dog as a family member, including them in fun activities. <br/>4. People who believe in good quality nutrition and vet care for their pets. <br/><br/>If you meet the above criteria, fill out that application now! She is a doll that you do not want to miss out on. <br/><br/>The application: <br/>https://forms.gle/acPQ7jszdAarzhUX8<br/>We generally schedule a meet with adopters on the first weekend after the application is approved. Our screening process is quick and personal. <br/><br/>If you prefer to inquire, please email us at awoofovermyhead@gmail.com. Include "Rosa" in the subject line, and tell us a bit about your life and how Rosa would fit into it. Please include your phone number and we will reach out promptly if it appears it could be a great match. <br/><br/>Non-cigarette smokers only, please.

A Woof Over My Head's Adoption Policy
Interested folks email us, telling us a bit about yourself and how the dog will fit into your life. Ideally, please leave a phone number and email. We will get in touch with you, either to chat first, or to send an application. If your application looks great, we'll check in, and your references are called. If it seems a great match, a meet is arranged, usually at potential adopters home/yard to allow for home inspection (home inspection via video of public areas of your home during Covid-19). Adoptions that are a match often, but not always, happen at the meet: the adoption contract is discussed, signed and the adoption donation is paid. You will receive records via email and usually, a set of "operating instructions" specific to the dog you have adopted. Each dog is sent off with a harness or martingale collar and enough food to get started. You supply an ID tag with one or two phone numbers, and a non-retractable leash. We check in several times after adoption, and we are always available for questions or updates and photos!
