SUGAR's Story

UPDATE---SUGAR'S ADOPTION IS NOW PENDING <br/><br/><br/>Please read Sugar’s full listing before reaching out. If you feel you’re a good match for her, complete the application linked at the end of her bio. We’ll be in touch if it appears to be a good fit. Thank you!<br/><br/><br/>Meet Sugar – she’s just as sweet as her name and is (we think) a MaltiPoo, a blend of Poodle and Maltese.<br/><br/>Sugar's backstory is a mystery. This little sweetheart was found wandering all on her own and was brought to a county shelter. She wasn't microchipped and yet she appeared to be freshly-groomed and was wearing a nice collar -- and was 110% housetrained! She had not been spayed when found and – amazingly – was not pregnant! Sadly, no one came forward to claim her, but she is now safe and thriving in a loving foster home where she’s receiving all the affection she craves.<br/><br/>Sugar weighs about 11 lbs. and is estimated to be approximately 1½ years old. The vet has given her a clean bill of health, and she has now been spayed and microchipped.<br/><br/>Sugar does not have an Alpha personality and tends toward the timid side, but she is extremely friendly with people, large and small, young and old, male and female. She was probably never properly socialized with other pups when she was little, and so it's not her fault that being in the company of other dogs has been a bit of a learning curve for her. She has no aggressive tendencies whatsoever. She’s just a sweet soul who needs patience and practice with her puppy manners, which her foster family is lovingly providing.<br/><br/>We are seeking a home for Sugar where there is already a dog who can help Sugar learn how to enjoy having a canine companion. Older children (12+) would be best, because toddlers' quick movements and outbursts would be frightening for her. A securely-fenced yard is required, where she can play happily and safely with her canine brother or sister. And ideally, someone would be at home during the day, since Sugar loves human companionship.<br/><br/>Sugar's favorite pastimes are being anywhere her people are, car rides, leash walks, snuggling on the couch, and playing fetch. (She is a champion fetcher, always returning the ball or toy for just one more throw!) She has a very good appetite and has learned to sit for her meals, treats, and leash. And it bears repeating...Sugar is perfectly housetrained!<br/><br/>Besides being spayed and microchipped, Sugar is current on her Distemper/Parvo and Rabies vaccines. She tested negative for heartworms and is on Heartgard for heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>Sugar's adoption fee is $475.00. We accept checks or cash for adoption fees. (Sorry, we cannot take credit cards.) Please note that if you are unable to adopt Sugar but would like to help cover any possible vetting expenses by donating through the Petfinder Foundation while she is waiting to find her new family, please click the “Sponsor” bar in the purple box on the right side of this page. Thank you so much for supporting her!<br/><br/>Also, please note that Sugar's breed mix is considered "high maintenance" because her hair will require regular brushing, plus grooming about every four to six weeks. If this does not fit in with your family's budget and/or lifestyle, you may want to consider adopting a shorthaired breed.<br/><br/>Sugar is an intelligent and affectionate little pup who deserves a safe and loving forever home. If you feel that she would be a good match for your family, please fill out an application here (copy and paste): https://foreverhomek9rescue.org/adoption-application/ <br/>After we receive your application, and if we agree that you and she may be a good match, we will contact you.<br/><br/>Forever Home Canine Rescue offers a three-week trial period with all of our adoptions, just to be sure that the pet is a good match for the adopting family. The fee is refunded if the adoption does not work out within the trial period. We want to be sure that every one of our pets will have their perfect "forever" home!<br/><br/>Although Forever Home Canine Rescue adopts out-of-state, we never ship or transport our pets. An approved adopter must come to North Carolina to meet their new canine companion and then take him/her back home with them.<br/><br/>We would like to thank Anna at Canine Country Grooming and Boarding and also Ashley Whitehead, who took these great photos of Sugar to help her find a wonderful forever home!
