Susie Q's Story

Meet Susie Q! <br/><br/>At 12 years young and just 7 pounds, Susie Q is a tiny Pomeranian with a huge heart and so much love to give. She came to Dogworks after the person who adopted her from another humane society sadly became homeless and could no longer care for her. Since then, shes been enjoying the comfort and love of her foster home while she waits for her forever family.<br/><br/>Susie Q is the definition of a lap dog. She absolutely loves to cuddle, be petted, and be carried around. She is very social with new people and gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and respectful children. Her favorite place is curled up in your lap, soaking up all the love she can get.<br/><br/>Susie Q does have special needs. She had untreated luxating patellas for many years, which caused her back legs to lock in place. Because she cannot bend her back legs, she learned to compensate by putting extra weight on her front legs, causing them to bow outward over time. She can still walk, but only for short distances and will need to be carried when she gets tired to prevent additional stress on her front legs. Despite her mobility challenges, she doesn't let them stop her from enjoying life and being close to her people.<br/><br/>She is potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside or when its mealtime with a little bark. One quirky thing about this sweet girl is that she prefers to be hand-fed—otherwise, she may decide not to eat. She truly enjoys being pampered!<br/><br/>Susie Q would do best in a quiet, one-level home where she can spend her days cuddling with her family. If there are stairs, she will simply need someone willing to carry her. In return, you'll gain a loyal, gentle companion who asks for very little besides love, attention, and a cozy lap.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a sweet senior who will happily be your constant shadow and cuddle buddy, Susie Q is ready to steal your heart.<br/><br/>She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchip, and is a monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>Her adoption fee is $200.<br/><br/>Please follow the link below for the adoption application. Note: applicants 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).
