Swiper's Story

Swiper is here to steal your heart!<br/>Meet Swiper, a Shiba Inu-Pomeranian mix who is approximately 9 years old and weighs 24 pounds. Swiper is a survivor in every sense of the word! Not only was he a stray multiple times, but he also made it through a four-month stint in lockup at animal control, a new foster home, heartworm treatment, and surgery to remove a tumor on his foot. He's missing a few toes now (digits 3 and 4), but if you're a Texas Longhorns fan, you'll think it's pretty cool!<br/>Swiper is looking for a quiet, respectful roommate who understands the sacred nature of evening downtime. Just one look at his sweet face, and you can see why this little guy was named after Swiper the Fox from the children's show Dora the Explorer. While he has a cute name, Swiper would thrive best in an adults-only home where he can enjoy his golden years in peace while keeping you company.<br/>This little fox would happily go on a walk with you, follow you around the house, explore the yard, get excited about a treat, and snuggle next to you on the couch. Swiper is a well-mannered and potty-trained dog, and he has no issue letting you know there are people outside the house while watching out the window. He tolerates other dogs but likes his space at times. He is a gentleman who would love to have your love and attention every day!<br/>Swiper is a typical rescue dog who will need some time getting used to a new home and people; remember the rule of three for rescue dogs: three days, three weeks, three months are all milestones for a new dog in your home, and after three months, your rescue dog will finally know that he is in his furever home.<br/>If you would like to meet Swiper to see if his attitude is right for you, fill out an application at istodaymydayrescue.org. Since he is a senior citizen, his adoption fee is $200, and he is heartworm-negative, neutered, and vaccinated. He also recently had a thorough dental cleaning. Adoption fees help our rescue pay for vetting and supplies for foster dogs. Swiper is being fostered in the Arnold, Missouri area.

Is Today My Day Rescue's Adoption Policy
Visit our website at istodaymydayrescue.org and fill out an adoption application! The adoption team for the dog you are interested in will review your application and complete a vet check to be sure all current animals are up to date on vaccinations and preventative care. A member of the adoption team will contact you via email or phone to discuss your application and evaluate if the dog will be a good fit for your home. You can expect to hear from a member of that dog’s adoption team within 48 hours. If your application is approved, a meeting/home visit will be arranged so you can see how the dog will fit into your current lifestyle. If the meeting goes well, the adoption contract and any other paperwork will be completed, the adoption fee will be paid, and they are ready to go home! We want to make this easy and we want to be sure that the dog you are interested in is a fit for you. Finding a dog or pup that works with your schedule and lifestyle is key to our placement. The questions on our application help us determine if the dog you choose will do well in your home. The number of hours your dog is home alone, fenced yard, exercise plan, other family members – pets included; these are important things we want to discuss with you and your chosen canine. Each dog’s needs vary based on breed, age, personality, health, and a number of other factors, so there are no right or wrong answers. We do require a vet reference as a routine part of our application screening.
