Twiggy's Story

Name: Twiggy aka Twigs aka The Twigster<br/>Age: 9 months, DOB 12/30/24<br/>Breed: Retriever mix <br/>Sex: Female<br/>Weight: 38lbs <br/>Location: Hamburg, NY<br/><br/>Twiggy is a sweet girl with a lot of playful puppy energy! She will chase a ball or stick for as long as you&#39;ll throw it and loves running around the yard. She would benefit from a fenced in yard so she can run until her hearts content! <br/><br/>She loves being with her people and would be happy as an only dog but would also be good with a calmer doggy friend. Twiggy is a bit clumsy with her long puppy legs so would do best with older children. She is working hard on her commands and manners. Recall and potty training on a consistent schedule is going well. She is also working on sit and no jumping! She walks well on a leash but does want to chase squirrels! It is unknown how she would interact with cats. She is learning that her crate is her safe place but still needs a little reassurance.<br/><br/>Twiggy is discovering how nice it is to be in a home, cuddling on the couch with her people and will make a wonderful and loving dog companion! <br/><br/>If you&#39;re interested in adopting Twiggy, please apply at www.716paws.org/adopt or message the rescue if you are already pre-approved!

716 Promoting Animal Welfare & Safety (716 PAWS)'s Adoption Policy
Currently we only adopt out within a 1 hour commute from the Buffalo Niagara airport. We accept any application outside of that area if the family has no other pets and is willing to come to buffalo for meet and greets with the dogs. If an applicant has other pets it is on a case by case basis weather the foster is willing to travel for the meet and greet. We will consider processing applications outside of Western New York and Rochester if the family has no other dogs in the home and is willing to come to Buffalo for the meet and greet. We do not provide transport services to out of town adopters. We do not adopt within Canada. What's Required to Adopt Required vetting for dogs: They must be spayed or neutered Be current on their rabies, distemper/parvo. Kennel cough/Bordatella is highly recommended but not required for dogs. If current animals are not vaccinated and spayed/neutered, the application will be denied unless there is a valid reason that it was medically necessary not to perform the procedure. Required vetting for Cats:? They must be spayed or neutered Be current on their rabies PLEASE NOTE: You must be 21 or older to adopt. Once your application is received we distribute to our volunteers for processing. First we will contact your vet reference if you current have pets living in the home or have had pets within the past two years. Next we will be contacting your personal references. Next is the home check. This visit is a non dog meeting where a volunteer will meet with you and the members of your household to discuss the adoption process, review the home, the yard and answer any questions you may have. Once the home visit is completed and if you are approved, you will be notified and can then express interest in a dog.
