TAZ's Story

Hello friends!! My name is TAZ and here is some info about me:<br/><br/>PHYSICAL INFO:<br/><br/><br/> Breed: Terrier/Lab mix <br/> Age: approx. 1.5 years<br/> Gender: Male<br/> Weight: 40 lbs <br/> Current Location: Texas<br/><br/><br/>RESCUE STORY - I was born at the County Roads Rescue facility just one day after my mother was rescued from an abandoned home that was scheduled to be bulldozed. There were 8 pups in my litter; all my 7 brothers and sisters have been adopted, but for whatever reason, I have been passed over for adoption for more than a year now. Think you have room in your home for me? I am so deserving of my forever home after waiting for so long! <br/><br/>TEMPERAMENT - I am a sweet, intelligent boy! I have been moved into a foster home because I'm quite fearful of things right now, so my foster mama is helping me get more confident in life. My foster mama happens to have adopted my mama last year, so I get to hangout with her all the time and we play really well together (video). When meeting new people, I'm pretty shy, but once I get comfortable my foster mama says I'm a super funny boy with a killer personality! I am an active fella who loves outdoor activities and play sessions. I have had some exposure to agility course training here at the rescue and I have loved getting to challenge my brain and body! I'm very treat motivated (a big win when it comes to training!) and very smart. I would love an active family who will take me on outdoor adventures and/or would like to try out some obedience or agility training with me! I promise, once my brain and body are sufficiently exercised, I'm a cuddly pup who enjoys affection and snuggles. So if you're an active hooman who also enjoys some couch cuddles, I'm your guy!! <br/><br/>ENERGY LEVEL - Medium - I have an energetic and playful side and really thrive when my mind and body are properly exercised. I would thrive with a good balance of exercise time and snooze time. I bet I'm perfectly suited to hiking and adventuring in the Pacific Northwest, followed by some cuddles and naps on the couch.<br/><br/>GETS ALONG WITH:<br/><br/><br/> Kids – Yup! Check out my video. I am shy at first but have proven to be very gentle and sweet with my foster mom's kiddos. <br/><br/> <br/> as with ALL dogs, I should always be supervised around children and I need to have my space respected. It's important to remember I am a rescue pup with minimal training, so I may play nip or bounce/jump up on people (including children!)<br/> <br/> <br/> Dogs – Medium/Large dogs, yup! There's lots of doggos at the shelter and we get along just fine. Check out my video of me playing with a shelter friend. I have great body language and play style. NOTE: I am not great with small dogs - I show some prey drive.<br/> Cats – No thank you!<br/><br/><br/>PREY DRIVE - Moderate. I have shown prey drive with small dogs and cats. Safe to assume I'll react similarly to squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours.<br/><br/>TRAINING:<br/><br/><br/> Leash skills – I do pretty well on a slip leash (video) but would love an adopter who is willing to continue working with me on my leash skills. <br/> Crate trained - Work in progress. There may be an adjustment period when I go to my new home, but with proper use, the crate can be my safe space :)<br/> House trained – Work in progress. Living in a shelter environment my whole life, I haven't had the 1-on-1 training needed to get me officially "house trained", however I do try to do my business outside whenever I can. I'm sure with frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement in my new home, I'll catch on quickly!<br/><br/><br/>Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. <br/><br/>HEALTH NOTES:<br/><br/><br/> I have been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. <br/> I have tested negative for heartworm after treatment.<br/> I will be tested for distemper and parvo before travelling (although I've been vaccinated for both!)<br/> NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.<br/><br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE:<br/><br/><br/> My adoption fee is $840.00, including applicable taxes ($750.00 CAD + 5% GST and 7% PST), which includes my ground transport to Edmonds, Washington. My adopter needs to be willing to drive to Edmonds, Washington to pick me up! :) <br/><br/><br/>-------------------------------------<br/><br/>DISCLAIMER: <br/><br/>Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and it's adoption process.<br/><br/>The info included in each WCP bio is provided to us from the international rescuer.

West Coast Paws Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy
WCP wholeheartedly believes in open communication with our adopters. We are always here to provide support and to join you in celebrating your dogs’ successes! Submit an Application - Start by clicking the “Adopt” button on a WCP dog’s profile. You will be redirected to an application form, which we ask you to fill out in as much detail as possible. Phone Interview - After your application is pre-screened, you will be contacted to arrange a Phone Interview. The purpose of the Phone Interview is to chat about the answers you provided on your application and to ask any clarifying questions. House Check - Once you have passed your Phone Interview, we will ask you to send us some photos of your home. Fear not, we don’t expect your house to look like a showhome! We are simply looking to see where your WCP pup would live and whether or not there are any potential safety hazards (escape areas etc.). Approval - Presuming you pass your House Check, you will receive an Adoption Approval email from our WCP Adoption Team. Deposit - A $100 CAD deposit is required in order for your dog to be reserved for you. Once we have received your deposit, we will update your dogs’ profile to show “Pending Adoption” and will stop accepting any further applications for him/her. At this point, we will notify the Rescuer that a home has been found and request that they start looking for a flight volunteer to bring your pup to Vancouver. Now you patiently wait for your dog to be booked on a flight. The Rescuer will work to find a traveller who is willing to add your dog as ‘extra luggage’ onto their ticket. We refer to these kind humans as “Flight Volunteers”. Meanwhile, your pup will be checked by a veterinarian who will issue a Certificate of Health and ensure your pup's shots are up to date. The vet will then approve the dog for travel and will provide all medical documentation, including your pup’s vaccination record. Flight Confirmation & Final Payment - Once the Rescuer finds a flight for your dog, WCP will send you an email with your pup’s flight information. We will also send you specific instructions regarding airport pickup such as where you need to park, what time you need to be there, and what you need to bring with you. Don’t worry, we will tell you everything you need to know! We require you to sign an Adoption Contract before you pick up your dog. Pickup & Take Your Pup Home - Your pup’s “gotcha” day is finally here! You will pick your dog up at the airport and take him/her home with you. Follow-Up & Post Adoption Support - Your WCP adoption experience doesn’t end the moment you take your dog home. We believe in providing ample post-adoption support and want to be a part of your dog’s journey. Within 7 days of taking your dog home, you can expect a phone call from our Follow-Up Team. If you need any help or support, WCP is here for you and your pup! WCP wholeheartedly believes in open communication with our adopters. We are always here to provide support and to join you in celebrating your dogs’ successes! There is no expiration date on our post-adoption support.
