Thelma's Story

Meet Thelma!<br/>Adoption Fee $595<br/>Approx 1 year - 25lbs<br/>Aggressive cuddler alert! <br/>Found on the run with her sister Louise, it’s only appropriate to introduce our girl Thelma! Thelma will size you up and judge your worthiness in the first few days, but then get ready for endless belly rubs and tail wags! It will be no secret, you will be her happiest part of her day! Will overnight sleep stop her affection-certainly not! If Thelma senses you shift during the night or if she’s just so overwhelmed with joy, she will smother you in kisses and endless thumps on the bed with her tail. She’s made herself at home in our clean laundry basket by night and lives as a couch potato by day. Thelma walks well on a leash and is house trained to her foster home. <br/><br/>Thelma has been exposed to older well mannered children. We are looking for a home without young children. Thelma will take time to acclimate- we are looking for a patient family, a confident resident dog would also be great!<br/>If you are expected a dog to immediately love you this may not be your dog- she requires an adjustment period as well as continued socialization.<br/> <br/><br/>Here are the basics of how adoption from Palmetto Paws works. Please READ IN FULL PRIOR to completing an application. Most of your questions are answered here. <br/>-We only take applications for those pets listed for adoption-any applications prior to a dog being posted for adoption will NOT be considered. Completing an application does not guarantee an adoption. <br/>-Please DO NOT complete an application if you are not ready to adopt immediately- we only consider applications for those applicants ready and available on the Saturday of the week the application is submitted.<br/>-All applications submitted receive an auto response detailing the process as well as the same details here. <br/>-Dogs reside in private foster homes. We do not host events and there is no opportunity to view multiple dogs. <br/>-We take many things into consideration when reviewing applications. -The age to be considered for adoption is 25.<br/>- As we receive many applications for our pups we will only be in touch with the selected applicant to arrange a meet/potential adoption. -The question regarding heartworm disease must be answered in full. We feel all adopters should be knowledgeable about heartworm disease and the basics can be found online if you are unfamiliar with it. All current and prior household pets must be/have been kept up to date on vaccines, preventives and spayed/neutered for adoption consideration. -We will not process applications that are not for a specific dog listed on our Petfinder site.<br/>-We do not process and "hold" applications. We do not ship dogs and we do not arrange transports. All adopters must be present to complete the adoption. -We do consider out of state applicants as long as the applicant is willing to come to Charleston to complete the adoption. If an adopter is approved we do a “meet and greet” with a specific dog or pup. If at the meet we all agree it’s a good match, then the adoption takes place at that time. Their is no opportunity to meet and adopt at a later date. -Please keep in mind that we do our best to make an educated guess as to the breeds of our rescued pets. In rescue we rarely see the parents of the puppies, and even when we do, they are usually mixed breeds as well. We will never promise a particular breed or adult size. We do our best to put all info we have in the bio. -We will not respond to inquires regarding information that is already detailed in the bio. <br/>-Adoptable pets are spayed/neutered (unless the rescue Veterinarian deems the pup/dog will need to be adopted on a SN contract), have age appropriate vaccines, are current on hw and flea preventatives and are microchipped. All adopters are provided with a medical summary, a new collar and leash, a few toys and chews, food to get started, an opportunity to go over basic training/pet care and help shopping for supplies if needed. <br/>-If interested in adoption please submit an application! The application is below- please complete in full as incomplete applications are not considered:<br/>https://form.jotform.com/250175174725154

Palmetto Paws Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
ADOPTION THROUGH PALMETTO PAWS: *For each pet listed there is a bio with all details. Please take the time to read the bio in full as questions already answered in the bio will not be responded to. *Completion of the adoption application does not guarantee that you will receive an animal from us. There are many things that we take into consideration when reviewing applications. We reserve the right to deny any applicant. Our goal is to match the right animal with the right home. *We review applications in order received. We don't adopt on a first come, first serve basis. The decision is multifactorial and ultimately based on which applicant we feel is the best match for each pet listed. *Our pets live in private foster homes. We do not foster to adopt. *There is no opportunity to meet multiple listed pets. We meet one on one with approved adopters on Saturdays in Mt Pleasant. We do not host adoption events. If at the time of a meet, all parties agree we have a good match, then the pet goes home at that time. We are not able to "hold" a pet to be adopted at a later date. *We do not consider applications of those not able to meet/adopt on the upcoming Saturday. Please only apply when you are available and ready to adopt. *Adoption fees vary by listed pet and are disclosed in the bio. Applications are only considered for pups listed on Petfinder. We do not keep applications "on file" for a later date. *Most pets listed are mixed breed. We make no representation as to breed mix or potential adult size. ADOPTION APPLICATION If you are interested in meeting one of our pets, please read the bio in full prior to submitting an application which can be found on our home page. Incomplete applications are not considered. The question regarding heartworm disease must be answered in full. Heartworm disease is a 100% preventable yet potentially life threatening disease in dogs. We believe every applicant should be well educated regarding heartworm disease and how to prevent it. Please remember that PPAR is an all volunteer organization. We do our best to process applications in a timely manner. The number of pets in our care and the number of applications we receive may influence processing time. Due to the high volume of applications received on certain pets we may only be able to respond to the selected applicant. The minimum age to adopt is 25 years.
