My story
Please go to our website at to find out more about this pet and to submit an adoption application. Please DO NOT call or email us; all information about current dogs available, adoption donations, vetting, and this specific dog are on our website. We are a non-profit organization and we are completely 100% volunteer run. We DO NOT have a shelter and only approved applicants can make appointments with our foster homes to meet the dogs we have.Our volunteers will not discuss dogs we have available for adoption UNTIL you have an application on file and are approved to adopt.General Notes | Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Health Notes | Blanche is healthy, she eats and sleeps well.Other Dogs | Blanche gets along great with other dogs. She is very respectful of my older dogs boundaries and does not bug them as much as most other puppies do. She gets a bit nervous when they want to play with her but is getting more comfortable with that as well. Cats | Children | Blanche loves children. She plays with and follows around my kids (ages 12, 9, and 4). She loves to cuddle with them. She runs with them and loves it when kids are playful with her. She gets the zoomies when the kids are playing with her. Training | Blanche has already shown she will be a quick learner. Blanche is doing well with potty training. Her accidents are minimal and she is learning that going outside means it's time to go potty. She has slept in a crate but has also started crying halfway through the night, so she may require more crate training if needed. She doesn't like having to be in her crate during the day, doesn't resist it, but cries when we are gone. She has started responding to her name a few commands like "come here" "good girl" and "no"Leash | she is still learning to walk with a leash. She's trying to get the hang of it. Activity Level | Blanche is very calm. She loves to play and chew like any puppy, but is extremely mellow. She is very excited in the mornings. She loves to lay in your lap or next to you and cuddle. Personality | Blanche is one of the sweetest dogs I've fostered. She is willing to give you her whole heart. She is very loving and cuddly. Cuddling is her favorite pastime. She loves being around people and will follow you anywhere you go. She learns quickly and will train easily. Blanche is always willing to sit next to you, or under your chair. She loves to play with toys, her favorite game is fetch. She is curious and always notices sounds. She tries to catch frogs. She loves food so she will try to jump up to the table or counter, so will need reminders about that. She will give kisses but never gets in your face/gets too crazy. She gets along well with everyone- adults, children, and other dogs. Everyone that we have had over say they want to take her home. Story | Blanche and her two sisters Rose and Tinley belonged to a breeder. They were mostly kept in an outside kennel. Both of her parents are silver labs. The breeder has medical issues come up, so they needed someone to take the dogs. Thank you! | Adoption Donations | Puppies to 1 year - $425, 1-6 years - $375, 7-10 years - $325, and 11+ years - $175. Purebreds are $475 regardless of age. These minimum donations help to defer the costs of initial vet care, food, and supplies while in foster care that currently average over $600 per dog).Meeting Dogs | Foster dogs may have meet & greets by appointment to approved applicants only. To become an approved applicant - please complete the application process.Please know | Available dogs are updated as soon as possible and we do our best to keep it up-to-date, but occasionally dogs shown may become unavailable without notice due to a pending adoption.We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page!We can not guarantee that a dog you wish to adopt is available by the time your adoption application is submitted, processed, and approved. Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle. September 29, 2022, 4:53 pm
