Story
Molly is a Yorkie, born 2015. Molly needs a new place with her forever friend, Polly (also a Yorkie, born 2016). They are both friendly around new people and kids, but have mostly been around adults. They know some commands and need a fenced yard.
Molly loves meeting new people, but is more timid and uncertain the first month or so in a new home. Polly is more reserved when meeting new people, but is more outgoing at home. Every week, a little more of their personalities come out! They love and depend on each other. They play & wrestle and then take naps next to each other.
They are both great with the two small Yorkies at their foster home, but we're not sure how they would do with bigger dogs or cats. Neither like sudden movements or yelling/screaming that young kids do when they’re playing. Polly is a former breeder release and is still timid. She’s a little scared of being picked up too quickly and sometimes might pee a little. Teenagers that understand this would be okay (age 12+), no young kids. The perfect family for them would be with adults who are patient and home most of the day. Someone that works from home would be great. They love a lap to curl up on and belly rubs are the best!! Bonus if they are the only dogs in the home.
The suggested adoption donation for Molly & Polly is $750, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.
Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver.
Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
