Sheldon's Story

Sheldons looking for a second chance at forever. He has had a rough start before coming to CFP and was adopted really early on (previously Ricky) from his foster family. Learning more about his needs he has returned to look for just that.<br/><br/>Sheldon is looking for <br/> A dog mentor, an alpha of the household who will tell him he's just a puppy and the role he is to take on, he follows direction really well from his human kids and family, and the foster dogs!!<br/> All the love and praise, he loves knowing he's a good boy and he will show you just how well he listens, redirection is sometimes needed but at 4months old, that's prime toddler years..... We all know those years are a blurrrrrr<br/> Feeding was a hardship among the litter as a whole, separate feeding for the learning period is a must. He is doing amazing with slow feeding and eating in a separate area from everyone else. <br/><br/>Sheldon is a great addition to add to a family, and will love to be on walks with you, but also know he loves a good break in the grass or would gladly take a ride on your shoulder (he's also a BIG boy so he will likely be a really large full sized pup when all grown so find a path that works for you to train for the Ironman!)

Cause For Paws's Adoption Policy
In order to encourage folks to rescue homeless Orphans, we try to make the rescue experience as non-invasive and pleasant as possible. First, an application is completed prior to meeting any of our orphans. Since we do not have a shelter, it’s important to be able to pre-qualify folks that will be making appointments with fosters, to meet any of our orphans. We do a vet check, to verify all current or previous dogs are up to date on vaccines, heartworm testing, heartworm prevention, and are either spayed or neutered. We may also contact references listed on the application when there is no previous vet information, or where more information is needed. We’ll then contact you to arrange a home visit, which is merely an opportunity to ask and answer any questions regarding our process. Since most of our orphans have already been in a situation that was not right for them, we want to do whatever it takes to allow them to succeed. It is not our intent to set a dog or a family up for failure.
