Most of our Papillons are adopted as close as possible to their foster homes. Each foster parent gives their heart and love to the butterflies in their care and it is hard to part with them. If you are interested in a Papillon that is not in your home state, you may still send an application, however, every effort is first made to place the dogs within a reasonable distance.We request that the applicant is willing to come to the home to meet the dog and to be sure the match is a good one.
While not all homes are suitable for the physically and emotionally fragile dogs that come into our rescue, we tend to have more people willing to rescue our Papillons than we have dogs available. We are grateful for the kindness of so many people. There may be a delay in finding the right dog for you, and each application is carefully scrutinized. It may take 2 weeks or more before you hear from someone in our volunteer organization.
Our adoption guidelines are stated preceeding the application page. Please read them carefully. Any transportation expenses are the full responsibility of the adopter. Suggested adoption donation:
For healthy dogs up to two years of age: $350-$450 For healthy dogs between the ages of two and six:$ 250-$350 For healthy dogs between the ages of six and nine: $150-$250 Geriatric or "special needs" dogs: donation is set on a case-by-case basis
Do you like to throw the ball? Well, I like to chase the ball! I would chase balls all day long if I could find someone to play with me. I have a lot of energy and I love to play.
When I first came to my foster Mom's house, I had already been given away 4 or 5 times. I don't know why - but I sure thought humans were mean. But now I know there are some really nice people and I have learned how good it feels to be loved. Mommy says "Look at me!" and then she throws me a treat and I catch it. I know all about "sit" and I am pretty good on a leash too.
I need an energetic human friend because I need to use up all my energy in a good way. Long walks and play time are very important.
Please come and meet me and my foster family.....OH! and bring your ball!
