Parson Russell Terrier (short coat) : : Female : : Adult : : Small
Katie is known on our Facebook Rescue Page as Kate Plus 8 for having given birth to 8 white puppies after we rescued her very pregnant from the Euthanasia list at a high kill shelter. Katie is a super sweet, friendly and outgoing, loving girl who weighs 20lbs so she is on the large side of a small breed. she loves toys and her deer antlers, running around in the lawn in the yard and playing with the younger puppies in the rescue.. katie comes when she is called, is housebroken and a very easy going dog, who is always smiling. we think she became pregnant young and the owners just dumped her because they failed to spay her. Now that Katies pups have grown, we noticed how loving and very playful she is. katie loives puppies and will do well if you just rescued a young pup who needs a mentor/mom fiqure/companion. She also does well with smaller, dog friendly animals. She is docile so she will shy away from aggressive dogs/behaviors. katie would also do well as an only dog if her humans are not gone 8-10 hours a day, so will do best with a stay at home mom or for people who work part/full time from home (if she is the only dog). Adopting a Dog requires a lot of work and is a commitment! Katie will be an awesome addition to a family that can give her the attention, exercise, training and affection he deserves. Health: Katie has been spayed. She is microchipped, current on DHPP, Bordetella, and Rabies, has been wormed and flea treated, tested negative for heartworm and Parvo History: Katie comes from an overcrowded shelter in California. Rompin Paws Rescue was asked to help and we are so glad we did. All dogs RPR pulls from California come with health certificates, as required by Washington state Law.
Adoption:
If you think you have room in your home and heart for Katie please go to our website: http:// There you will find more information and be able to fill out an adoption application. Adoption Fees Adoption fee is 475.00 this covers transport and adoption and medical such as certain vaccines, worming and parasite, and flea/tick control, health certificate and wellness exam We bring dogs from up from California. so there are transportation costs for each dog. Then the dogs need to be spayed/neutered, vaccinated, groomed, and sometimes boarded if we can't place them in a foster, or set up at the adoption facility in Arlington, Also, we don't receive any grants so we rely solely on adoption fees and donations to fund all of our rescue efforts. Finally, we take on "Special Needs" dogs with high vet costs and pay for their procedures with 'leftover' funds from adoption fees for healthier dogs. About Rompin Paws RescueRompin Paws Rescue is a licensed, non-profit organization working towards our 501C3, specializing in rescuing moms to be, moms with puppies, puppies without moms and other Death Row dogs. We are located in Western Washington State.
Our passion is to bring people and pets together. Countless dogs are without homes and in need of assistance. These are dogs who would make wonderful and faithful companions if only they could connect with the right person or family. We have made it our mission to help them do this. At the same time we hope to enrich the lives of those who adopt them. We strive to match our dog's needs and personality to the preferences and requirements of each potential adopter. We believe this is a crucial component of the process and will help ensure a life-long relationship. Our primary focus is on small mixed breeds, moms and puppies of small and large breeds, although we do occasionally take in larger dogs. We work collaboratively with shelters, other rescue groups, and individuals, both locally and in California.. Healthy dogs: As a rescue saving dogs from starvation, Neglect and Emaciation, RPR focus's on feeding each rescue animal the healthiest dog food made of Human Grade ingredients to help them recover from their stress and starvation. We share this with our adopters and encourage them to keep their new pet on the same foods for optimal health and a long life. RPR was established in April, 2015. we placed 400 dogs in our first year of operation in a small facility on Acreage in Arlington Washington. We have a few local fosters and seek to increase our foster base in order to save more lives Come Meet Our Pets...We have a home based operation on Acreage in Arlington and Our dogs are placed in foster homes around the greater Seattle/I-5 Corridor North to Arlington area where they receive socialization and training while they await adoption.Our Adoption Process...Since we have a small facility on gated acreage, we are unable to stay open to anyone who wishes to come visit. To facilitate successful adoptions we ask interested people and families to fill out an application for the dog or dogs they may be interested in. We screen the applications and then speak with the interested party by phone. If it looks like a good match can be made, we pre-approve the applicant and set an appointment for a meet and greet with the dogs at out facility or with the fosters who have the dogs in their care. we continue the interview in person and make sure the dog and family are a good fit.More about KatieGood with Dogs, Good with Older/Considerate Kids Only, Good with Adults, Good for Seniors/Elderly, Quiet, Requires a yard, Leashtrained, Plays fetch, Likes to play with toys, Likes to be in your lap, Apartment OK, Playful, Affectionate, Eager To Please, Intelligent, Gentle, Goofy, Needs a companion animal
