28. Big Bertha

Adult · Female · French Bulldog / Mixed

This pup will be available to meet starting on 10/31Meet Big Bertha, a whole lot of personality packed into one adorable little house hippo!Bertha is a playful, people-loving girl who seems to think everyone she meets is a potential new best friend. She's great with other dogs once she's had a chance to make introductions, and she's quickly making herself right at home. These days, her favorite activity is flopping over for belly rubs while snoring like a little trucker. Honestly, she's got the relaxation thing figured out.She's also a pretty great walking buddy! Bertha recently went for a stroll and did wonderfully on leash, walking without pulling and seeming to enjoy every minute.

She's happy to get out and explore, but given her French Bulldog build, she's probably better suited to leisurely walks and shorter adventures than strenuous exercise or long, demanding outings. She's more of a stroll-and-then-nap kind of girl!At night, Bertha slept perfectly in her crate, making herself quite the easy houseguest. She's sweet, funny, affectionate, and full of character. If you're looking for a companion who will keep you smiling, happily soak up your attention, and provide plenty of entertainment with her ridiculous little snores, Big Bertha might just be your girl!They were rescued from a high kill shelter in Texas.Meet and greets are by appointment only.

    How to adopt from Evergreen Animal Protective League

    THE FIRST STEP to adopting an EAPL animal is to fill out a DOG ADOPTION APPLICATION. EAPL is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter facility where applicants can come look at multiple animals at one time. All of our animals are in foster homes that range from Denver, to Evergreen, to Northeast Colorado - where they are loved and cared for until they are placed in a forever home. The adoption process begins when you complete an online Adoption Application, naming either one or a few of our Available Animals or providing a description of the type of animal you hope to adopt. Completing an application does not restrict you to a specific animal, nor does it obligate you to adopt. Once we have received your application and determined that you are a good match for the requested animal, we will contact you. The foster parent will then contact you to arrange a time for you to meet the animal, at which time you can decide if you would like to complete the adoption. You may be asked to visit the animal more than once before taking it home. After your initial meeting with the animal, one of our volunteers will conduct a home visit. This may occur before you take the animal home or when the animal is delivered to you. Once the adoption is approved, you will need to complete our Preliminary Adoption Agreement and pay the adoption fee. We will keep in contact over the next few days to make sure everyone is happy. If so, we will mail out an official Adoption Contract for

We are most interested in which type dog will be a good fit for you and your family and the other pets in your home. We will also contact you by phone to learn more about the dog you're looking for and to review the current available dogs in our rescue. We will schedule an appointment for you to meet the dog(s). If a match is made, we can complete the adoption process at that time. If we don't find the perfect match, we'll keep trying till we do! We hope that your home is the very last stop on the dog's journey and we do all we can to help you and your dog make the transition easier, including providing you with an information packet loaded with tips and resources. Our quality standard vet care is as follows: • Spay/Neuter - All dogs will be spayed or neutered prior to being adopted. • Heartworm Test - If the heartworm test is negative, the dog is placed on regular heartworm preventative. If the heartworm test is positive, the dog is treated to eradicate the heartworms and then placed on regular heartworm preventative. • Rabies vaccination • DHP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvo) vaccination • Bordatella (kennel cough) vaccination • Flea and tick preventative • Microchip Our adoption donation requirements are as follows: • Puppies 6 months of age or younger require a donation of $350. • Dogs over 6 months a

Adopting a dog in Clear Creek County

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
