Story
Meet sweet Poppy! Poppy was found in a field with her siblings, on the verge of dying. Dehydrated, emaciated, full of parasites. Thankfully a good Samaritan got them all rounded up and called us. All were a bit shy at first but have come out of their shell and are nothing short of adorable. Cattle dog/shep mix, going to be medium size dogs we think. Born in April of this year and currently around 15 pounds. RECOMMENDATIONS & PROCEDURES Please note, the following are recommendations for puppies and different breeds of dogs. We will evaluate each application on an individual basis to see what is best for the dog/puppy and the potential adopter. Puppies are very fragile and not toys. We recommend children be at least six years old to be considered to adopt a puppy. Small breed dogs ( such as chihuahuas, yorkies, shih tzus , etc) we recommend children be at least eight years old. Herding, working breeds we recommend children to be at least 12 years old. Again these are recommendations. Adoption Procedures: We will travel up to two hours ( one way) to do physical home visits and we do not do virtual home visits. ( we are in Cleveland County NC) Most of our dogs come from bad situations and we want to know where their forever home is going to be. While we do not require fencing on all dogs, certain dogs that need a fenced in yard, will not be adopted unless potential adopter has one. We also adopt some dogs to people who live in apartments ( as long as the landlord approves) but not all dogs. We do not adopt to anyone under 21 years of age. We also do not feel college students are the best fit for most of our dogs. Most of our dogs again, come from bad situations and need lots of attention. Most college students have financial responsibilities and we feel need to be focused on school. Our goal is to match the dog with a family that fits the dog’s needs. We are solely focused on what is best for each dog in our rescue. These dogs have had enough moving around, dumped out like trash, and we want to ensure they find their forever home. We do require you sign a contract and if at any time you cannot continue to provide for the dog, the dog comes back to the rescue. Your first step to adoption is filling our our on line application. You will then get an automated email stating we got your application Next our adoption coordinator will be in touch either by phone or email If your references check out, a home visit will be scheduled. After the home visit is done, a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in and/or any other available dogs we have will be scheduled If the dog and you are a match, contract will be signed and you may take your new family member home.

Story
Cora was born October 26, 2022 and what a beauty. She does well with all adults here and has been around children with no problems. She is energetic and playful which is typical of this working breed once she gets to know you. Cora has the typical shyness of strangers that comes with the breed and may not come running to you when you visit but we have had no nippy issues with her. She loves the guys that clean the kennels and loves to snuggle with them. She would do best with room to run. She is okay with some dogs but not others. So, a home with no other dogs may be best for now. She has not been around cats and we can't offer an opinion on how she is with cats. She is house and crate trained, walks on a leash and knows basic commands. We think she would do best with an adult home right now that is a bit on the quiet side and that has patience while she adjusts to her new surroundings. A country home would be awesome! Cora is spayed, microchipped and current on shots, heartworm and flea prevention. If you are interested in visiting or adopting, please submit our application at RichardsonRescue.org. That is also where our most current list of adoptable pets is located. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 18, 2025, 1:00 pm

Story
JoJo is about 3 months old as of March 2025 and what a sweet boy. We are not really sure of the mix but are positive on the Blue Heeler part.  He loves people of all sizes and is very playful with people and other dogs. He loves his squeaky toys and already walks pretty well on a leash and is learning to sit. He is a puppy and will need his house training continued in his new home. He should do well with most any active family as he will not be a couch potato. A nice fenced yard to run in would be great for him. JoJo will be current on medical for his age. If you are interested in visiting or adopting, please submit our application at Richardsonrescue.org. That is also the most current site to see if a dog is still available. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 25, 2025, 12:46 pm
