Story
Meet our mutt: BELLA
BELLA is currently in a high-kill shelter in Arkansas with her 2 siblings. Luckily, she crossed paths with the right humans and she is scheduled to make the trip up to Cedarburg, Wisconsin with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on 1/18/25. She is available for adoption in Wisconsin and surrounding areas starting on the 18th.
About: BELLA is the cutest little lady. She is super sweet and a petite little girly. She has so much love to give and gets along with other dogs and humans, has not been cat tested yet, but would probably be fine. She is very friendly and loves attention from her humans. She was surrendered to the kill shelter with her 2 siblings (Bo and Beth). The previous owner said they are chiweenie mixes and both of the parents were between 25-35 lbs. We do not know much else about the start of their life.
If you are interested in adopting BELLA, please fill out an adoption application on our website:
www.muttlife.org
She will be available in Wisconsin on 1/18/25 from the transport vehicle. If she does not find an adopter by then, she will be placed in a foster home.
-------------------------------
All dogs come with a certified vet inspection, up-to-date vaccines that are age appropriate, up to date flea/tick, and heart-worm preventatives. We cover partial reimbursement for spay/neuter costs if they have not already been fixed. We have several spay/neuter clinics that are cost-effective to take them in the Milwaukee area or you can take them to a vet of your choice. We reimburse $100 of your adoption fee after proof of spay/neuter.
To apply to adopt, please fill out an adoption application on our website at (www.muttlife.org) and review the adoption requirements to ensure you meet the necessary criteria to apply!
Here is a summary of our adoption process:
1. Apply: Fill out the adoption application on our website completely and submit all necessary documents.
2. Application processing: we do a thorough background check, landlord approval (if applicable) or home ownership verification, vet check, and review your application. This process can take up to 5 business days.
3. Please authorize your vet to release medical information with Mutt Life.
4. Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.
5. Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: After approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5-day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure it's the right fit.
6. Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
7. Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via Zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
8. Neuter/spay for puppies: if dogs are adopted before 6 months of age and are not neutered/spayed yet, we will work with you to coordinate an appointment with one of our veterinary clinic partners or you can go through your vet and we will give you a partial adoption fee reimbursement.
