Snowball's Story

Meet Snowball, a 70-pound gentle giant who is quite literally a giant, walking marshmallow made of pure love.<br/><br/>At just under a year old, this sweet Great Pyrenees girl is already spayed and looking for a family to give her whole heart to. To know Snowball is to love her; she has an incredibly gentle soul and a special fondness for little ones. In her foster home, her absolute favorite pastime is faithfully following around a 3-year-old toddler, acting as a watchful, loving guardian angel.<br/><br/>Snowball is a friend to everyone she meets. She gets along beautifully with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages, though she truly thrives with gentle housemates who match her calm, sweet energy.<br/><br/>If you are looking for a cuddle buddy, Snowball is your girl. She is a total leaner and loves to gently rest her front legs right in your lap, wrapping you up in a big, fluffy doggie hug while you sit together. She is just as smart as she is affectionate, already knowing how to sit perfectly when asked.<br/><br/>This sweet girl is an absolute dream on adventures, too. She rides beautifully in the car, settles down nicely in her crate with a fun toy or treat to keep her busy, and was a total angel during her bath time.<br/><br/>Snowball is a generous, easygoing pup who has shown absolutely no food or toy guarding. While we were told she has been around cats in the past, her exposure was limited, so she will just need slow, supervised introductions to ensure she makes friends safely.<br/><br/>If you have room in your heart for a beautiful, loving companion, Snowball cannot wait to meet you.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Snowball, please complete an application:<br/><br/>https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PDAR/Dog<br/><br/>Her adoption fee is $400.<br/><br/>Please note: Because Snowball is a Great Pyrenees, we are requiring a securely fenced yard for her safety. This breed is known for roaming and patrolling their territory.<br/><br/>The adoption fee helps cover spay or neuter when applicable, transport from Texas, core vaccines, heartworm testing when age appropriate, deworming, microchipping, and other rescue expenses.<br/><br/>Every adoption also includes a complimentary First Exam at a participating VCA Animal Hospital within the first 14 days, along with limited health coverage of up to $250 for certain minor illnesses diagnosed during that period.<br/><br/>We do not guarantee breed, adult size, or exact mix. Breed listings are our best guess based on appearance and known history.<br/><br/>Paws Deep Animal Rescue is a nonprofit rescue. Any excess funds from adoption fees are used to help care for other dogs whose rescue, medical treatment, transportation, and ongoing care costs far exceed their individual adoption fees.

Paws Deep Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
The first step to adoption, once you have identified a pet you would like to adopt, is to fill out an adoption application. You can speed up the adoption process by calling your vet ahead of time to give us permission to speak to them in regards to your current and past pets. You will be contacted to schedule an interview and a meet and greet after the adoption contract is approved.. We will need proof of age with a form of ID. Once we have gotten approval that you are allowed to have pets where you live, your adoption application is approved, the pet is altered, and adoption payment is received, only then will the animal be released. Some pets may be able to go home the day after adoption contract is approved others it could be a week. If the animal is deemed too young to be altered we will have the adopter sign a spay and neuter contract. The animal will need to be neutered when it is 6 months old and we will need proof provided to us by a licensed veterinarian. Once there is proof provided, the rescue will reimburse $100 of the adoption fee. If there is more than one qualifying approved applicant that is a match then the applicant who first inquired will get the opportunity to meet the pet and decide if they want to adopt before it goes to the next person in line. Note: Some animals will require home inspections or a fenced yard. Applying for a dog does not mean automatic approval. We reserve the right to deny applications. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_j7Qyk269a7uzMcOh1Ffx3PU9femw7Xd3t-Nj8TOfBE/edit Follow us on TikTok: @pawsdeepanimalrescue
