***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation***
Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues.
WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS.
Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog.
We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes in WA state, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA.
Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, or cash. We no longer accept PayPal because of the percentage they take & their fees but if the potential adopter wants to pay the fees we will accept PayPal.
The call was put out for the need from several commercial breeders who needed some of their dogs gone, at a cost of course in the middle of the midwest. Of course they always want money for the dogs & of course once we know about them we are not leaving them & do what we have to do to help them. These innocent souls lives was instantly changing in that moment & only for the better. They were one of the very lucky ones. On this day we rescued a total of 17 lives of mums, dads & puppies including Lilac & her siblings.
Now the real healing, love & devotion could begin & show Lilac how she is supposed to be loved & adored in a loving forever home just as they are in their foster home.
Lilac & her friends & siblings were bought back to the WA state where she is now so happy to be here & can’t wait to find her new loving devoted forever home.
It’s so funny to watch this sweetheart run for the first time as she looks as though a big ball of fluff is running. Her foster mum said you don’t even know she is the home as she is just so sweet & innocent. Lilac is the best of both worlds, she will play but then be happy to snuggle up with you on the couch. She can be a little stalker & loves both her foster mum & dad. She has mastered wooden stairs & can go up & down them no worries. She can also squeeze through a baby gate as she is that little so that needs to be considered.
This little lady is now loving life in her foster home. She now knows what toys are & loves playing with her toys. She has been learning to go potty on material potty pads. She is not too fond of being outside for too long.
At first she did not have a clue about anything at all but has picked up things very quickly in her devoted foster home.
She absolutely loves her foster siblings & sister.
She is extremely sweet but is very loving & a very cuddly little lady. She really enjoys snuggling with you & we know she adores being picked up & held & carried around to see what is going on. At first she had no idea what it was to be held & loved but now she gets ready to be picked up.
The reality is, the foster homes are her real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding she can snuggle up in, a roof over her head that’s not outside.
Lilac is a wonderful eater & we know that she is obsessed with food with the amount of weight she has put on in her loving foster home with the good nutrition she is getting. She eats a clean diet meaning, raw fruits, vegetables, grains & proteins & is on supplements. She gets bully sticks & collagen sticks & loves them. Well she is absolutely obsessed with them.
She adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something she did not get to experience ever until he was rescued. She currently sleeps with her sibling as they are fostered together & you will find them snuggled up together their foster mum said. She absolutely loves to sleep in the bed with you too & be apart of what you are doing.
She is such a very innocent puppy who just wants to be loved & to make up for her past. She loves everyone & is so very sweet. She is accepting with being bathed & groomed & tolerates the hairdryer. She absolutely loves you brushing her & will close her eyes & go to sleep while brushing her.
She would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash. She is a puppy & we have not taken her out anywhere.
Lilac rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when she went to be sold & when we got her & going home & to & from the vets with us & her loving foster home. But she does absolutely amazing in the car. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lady only. Lilac as you can imagine spent the first part of her life in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Lilac where someone is home during the day or she can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them. When they find someone who treats them as they should be treated & loves them they get so attached to them.
Lilac is looking for a forever home who will cherish her & love her as she should be loved & be patient with her & never give up on her.
Lilac has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & she is currently with her sibling in her foster home. She will be found snuggled up with her foster siblings. She absolutely must go to a forever home with a dog or dog’s present in the home for him to thrive in. She needs a very snuggly dog in the home for her to play with. Please do not apply saying your neighbors have a dog or family members or you will take him to places where there are other dogs. That will not work, another dog or dogs is mandatory along with a fully fenced backyard.
Lilac is roughly 5 lbs & he is roughly 9 months old & a miniture poodle. She has put on a lot of weight since being in the rescue in her foster home. What she is mixed with we are not sure. We treated her for coccidia & giradia as we do with all puppies. Female, she will be spayed by laser by our vets, she is microchipped, up to date on her shots, including DHPP, bordatella, leptospirosis, dewormed & is spayed.
We have spent far more on Lilac with paying for her from a commercial breeder. Bringing her to WA with her travel costs, her transportation to WA. All of her medical care in WA & Omaha etc & bringing her to WA then her adoption fee comes close to covering.
Lilac has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had her around small children but we do do not recommend small children nor cats though & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats.
We were not there when Lilac was conceived so we do not know who her parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think her breed is.
As with all of our rescues & Lilac’s friends & siblings she will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Lilac potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond.
We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.
Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Lilac & going through our process and have read her listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on. Or you waste this rescues time, will remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit via WebEx or Zoom due to covid & followed by a meet & greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Lilac who understands her needs & that meet all the requirements for the special sweet little Lilac.
Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately.
Lilac has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for her truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what she has been through.
