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
Katie is a happy little girl despite her first year in a puppy mill. She is learning to play and how good it feels to be loved. She should be ready for adoption very soon.
For the first time Katie is allowed to be a puppy - she zooms and climbs and gets into mischief!
She has already become the good will ambassador for Pap 911 Rescue, when she went to school to thank the kids for sponsoring her. She was able to show the effects of life in a puppy mill, and the recovery love brings.
think you have the patience for a lovable puppy? Come and meet Katie!
