Taffy's Story

Meet Taffy!<br/><br/>Tiny, scruffy, and absolutely adorable, meet Taffy!<br/><br/>Taffy is a beautiful adult female with a gorgeous black-and-tan coat, adorable perky ears, expressive brown eyes, and the sweetest little scruffy face! With her charming appearance and irresistible little face, she's sure to steal hearts!<br/><br/>This precious girl was rescued from South Texas and is now getting a second chance at finding the loving family she deserves! Taffy is expected to arrive Halloween weekend and can't wait to meet her future family!<br/><br/>Based on her appearance, our best guess is that Taffy is a **Yorkshire Terrier/Cairn Terrier mix**, although her exact breed is unknown. Her scruffy tan face, upright ears, and distinctive black-and-tan coloring give her that classic terrier look!<br/><br/>Since Taffy is already an adult, we expect her to remain a **small dog, approximately 10–15 lbs**, although her actual weight has not yet been confirmed.<br/><br/>As an adult dog, Taffy is past the early puppy stage, making her a wonderful option for someone looking for a smaller companion without all the demands of raising a young puppy!<br/><br/>Since Taffy is new to our rescue, we're still learning about her personality, temperament, and daily habits. Adopters should be prepared to provide patience, consistency, and plenty of love while she adjusts to her new home.<br/><br/>Her adorable scruffy coat may require regular brushing and occasional professional grooming to keep her looking and feeling her best!<br/><br/>**Interested in adopting Taffy?**<br/><br/>The first step is completing an adoption application. Applications must be approved before scheduling a meet and greet.<br/><br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PDAR/Dog<br/><br/>**Adoption Fee: $500**<br/><br/>Taffy will receive age-appropriate veterinary care prior to adoption, including vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, and other routine care. Her spay status will be confirmed prior to adoption.<br/><br/>**Important Adoption Information:**<br/><br/>Please understand that rescue dogs often come to us with little to no background information. We may not know their parents, genetic background, previous living conditions, or complete medical history.<br/><br/>All breed identifications are our best guesses based on physical appearance. We do not perform DNA testing, and breed, adult size, temperament, and energy level cannot be guaranteed.<br/><br/>While we do our best to provide accurate information, a dog's personality and behavior may change as they settle into a new environment. Adopters should be prepared to provide patience, consistency, training, and time to adjust.<br/><br/>All veterinary care provided is based on the dog's age and needs while in our rescue. We cannot guarantee a dog's future health or rule out unknown medical conditions.<br/><br/>**A Note About Adoption Fees:**<br/><br/>Paws Deep Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization run by dedicated volunteers. Adoption fees are not a profit for our rescue. They help cover the costs of rescuing, transporting, feeding, and providing veterinary care for animals in our care.<br/><br/>While some adoption fees help offset the cost of an individual dog's care, many of the animals we rescue require extensive medical treatment, surgeries, or other specialized care that far exceeds their adoption fees. The fees collected from adoptions help us continue saving those animals whose adoption fees don't begin to cover their expenses.<br/><br/>By adopting, you're not just giving one dog a loving home. You're also helping us provide a second chance to other animals in need!<br/><br/>Thank you for supporting rescue and helping us save lives!

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
