Twix's Story

Adoption fee: $400 Meet Twix: Your Sweet, Spicy, Super-Smart Survivor Hey there, I'm Twix! I'm a 1-year-old black and tan Doberman with natural ears, a docked tail, and enough personality to fill a whole candy aisle. I'm playful, cuddly, unbelievably smart, and—full transparency—a bit of a medical miracle. I survived an obstruction surgery that almost took me out, and because of that, I'm looking for a very special, very experienced Doberman-human to help keep me safe... and keep life fun! Personality: I'm a sweet, goofy girl who loves to play, especially with male dogs. I warm up to other dogs just fine, but I do need a slow introduction so I don't get overwhelmed. I'm affectionate, mischievous in the cutest way, and full of puppy joy. I do have some anxiety and pica, so regular exercise and mental stimulation are a MUST for me—bored Twix turns into “I wonder if I can eat that?” Twix. (Spoiler: I absolutely will try.) My Story: I came into rescue after a life-threatening gastrointestinal obstruction required emergency surgery. This wasn't my first, it was my second in a month and my previous owner could not afford the second surgery after I wiped his bank account out with the first. It was touch-and-go but I survived. The vets made it clear: I cannot undergo another obstruction surgery and live through it. Because of that, keeping me safe from eating inappropriate objects isn't just important—it's life or death. Don't worry though, I'm not fragile... I'm just a little too curious about the world with my mouth. Manners & Training: I'm incredibly smart—like scary smart. I already know: Sit • Kennel Up • Lay Down • Touch • Watch • And I'm muzzle-trained! Because of my pica, I must be crated or properly muzzled anytime I cannot be watched like a hawk. This is not optional for my safety. But the good news? I wear my muzzle like a total pro. I'm potty trained and crate trained, though I still need some leash work. I've shown some food aggression, so I need a child-free home both now and in the future—kids drop things, and I cannot risk grabbing something dangerous or defending food. Special Considerations: • I need a Doberman-experienced owner who understands working breeds, structure, and management. • Pica + anxiety means I need exercise, training, and enrichment every single day. • I cannot safely be left unsupervised without a crate or muzzle—ever. • Food aggression means no children in the home. • I prefer male dogs for play, but I'm friendly with most dogs with slow intros. If you're diligent, structured, and proactive—and ready to commit—I will thrive with you. Health & Vetting: I'm spayed, vaccinated (rabies, Bordetella, distemper combo), microchipped, heartworm negative, and negative for intestinal parasites. Physically, I'm doing great. Mentally? I just need someone who understands me. Why You'll Love Me: I am sweet, loving, playful, and ridiculously trainable. I bond hard, adore my people, and want nothing more than to be a good girl. I just need someone dedicated, attentive, and ready to help me succeed. If you're looking for a bright, goofy, loyal companion who will give you her whole heart—and you're willing to manage her quirks—then I might be the perfect match for you. Can't wait to meet you! Love, Twix

Georgia Doberman Rescue's Adoption Policy

Anyone interested in adopting must complete and submit an application to GDR for review. All potential adopters are thoroughly screened, interviewed and all references are checked. We also do a home visit to ensure that our rescues are provided a safe, healthy environment. Dobermans must never be chained or tied outside, and must always be primarily inside dogs. All adopted dogs must be kept current on vaccinations and heartworm preventative. Adopters are required to keep GDR informed as to current address, phone number and/or any change in home or situation that could affect the adopted Doberman. If the adopter cannot keep the adopted dog in the specified manner for any reason, GDR must be notified and has discretion in reclaiming the dog. Adoption Application Please fill out the app completely and send it back to GDR at adopt@georgiadobermanrescue.com. Make sure to follow all instructions as if anything is missing, it will slow down the application process. Photos of your home are required and must be submitted along with your application. We offer our adoption application as a PDF or Word document Please visit our website to download http://www.georgiadobermanrescue.com/adopt/ Adoption Process Step 1 – Completely fill out the GDR application. The application allows us to get to know your home and family situation and find the best match for you. When you submit your application, please also attach pictures of your home, inside and out, fence, etc. Please note that if you rent your home a signed and dated letter from your landlord or management company stating their approval of your decision to adopt a Doberman, must accompany your application. Step 2 – Review and reference Checks GDR will review your application and make the appropriate reference checks to veterinarians and if needed, personal references. Please be sure that you call your vet’s office and personal references and let them know that a GDR representative will be calling/emailing and that they have your permission to discuss relevant issues with us. Step 3 – Home Visit and Meet and Greet Once GDR has reviewed the application and completed the appropriate reference checks and if we feel that your home would be an excellent home for a Doberman, we will contact you to schedule a home visit. The home visit is an important part of our adoption process as this is where we get to know you and your family better, see your lifestyle and get a feel for how our rescued Doberman would fit in with your family and other pets. When possible, we will bring along or schedule a meet and greet for the dog in which you are interested or we feel is the best fit. Step 4 – Board Review GDR (board members) will review the above and make a decision. We will notify applicants regardless of our decision. If you are approved, we will then complete the appropriate adoption paperwork and finalize the adoption. When possible, one of our board members will meet with adopters to finalize the adoption in person. When you adopt from GDR, the relationship doesn’t end there. We love to keep up with our Dobermans and their families. We want to be an ongoing resource for our adoptive families throughout the years. We want your Doberman to be a well loved, healthy and cherished member of your family, and we will do everything we can to ensure that.
