Story

Beauregard is enjoying life in his foster home and is ready to find his forever family. According to his foster mom, he is probably the sweetest dog she’s ever interacted with. Beauregard is very low energy and loves curling up on the couch or in a human bed. And he is obsessed with any person he meets. He does fine with other dogs, but is more dog neutral and doesn't seem to care if they are around or not. And he’s a really fast learner…as long as food is involved. He would do best in a home without small children and no cats present. Beauregard completed his heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an application. We do allow out of state adoptions and any transport costs are at the expense of the adopter. If you have further questions about this dog, please email us at ccradopt@gmail.com and someone will be in touch as soon as possible. Please note we are unable to hold dogs for adopters as this ties up valuable foster homes. Please understand that we are an all volunteer group and we have jobs outside of this organization. We do our best to provide quick responses but occasionally they are a little slower. If you do not receive a response in 48 hours, please resend to make sure it's received. ##2724972##

Story

Hi! My name is Jenna. I am a really adorable labradoodle pup, and I am just looking for my furever home! I was surrendered to rescue when my human parents couldn't place me in a home--my siblings and I are the result of an "accidental litter," I am 11 weeks old (born around June 15, 2026), weigh about 15 pounds, and I love dogs, cats and kids. I am doing so well with all of them in my foster home in South Carolina! I am spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, dewormed, current with all vaccines (as appropriate for my age) and on flea and heartworm prevention. I am all ready to be adopted :) My adoption fee is $450, and covers all of my vetting and care while I am in the rescue. Transport to the northeastern USA is available for an additional fee (around $175 payable directly to the transporter). ***PLEASE DO NOT FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO ADOPT WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS**** Please visit https://www.apply.daybeforetherainbow.com/ to fill out an adoption application form or email my rescue at taryn@daybeforetherainbow.com! Thanks for checking me out!
