ELLIE BUG I’m PAWroud (proud) to introduce Ellie. Her talents include licking off the water from your legs after you shower, nibbling on toes, rolling onto her back for rubs, giving gentle kisses, and sleeping under the blankets at night to keep you warm. Don’t let her size fool you. She’s incredibly tough and has spunk! Not only can she wrestle and hold her own with all the Puppers at the small dog park, but she also beat parvovirus. Not completely impressed yet? Well clearly she has beauty and bronze, but did I mention she has brains as well? Ellie is incredibly smart and wants only to please her people! The only thing in life she wants is a family to finally call her own to love and spoil her the way she deserves. If you’re looking for a small dog with a huge personality, you’ve found your girl. Ellie does need a home where she’ll have a dog brother/sister who will play her favorite games, like wrestling and tug-a-war. She gets along flawlessly with smaller dogs, but does have a fear of larger dogs. Ellie does well with medium dogs after warming up to them, which doesn’t take long at all. In addition, she’s house trained and does great in cars. If Ellie sounds like she could be an amazing addition to your family, please fill out an application and come meet her! She’s currently being fostered in Seattle. Overall, she’s one-of-a-kind and ready to take on the world by your side Our Adoption Process Adoption Application w/pictures of yard and gates/fences Adoption Application link: http://rompinpawsrescue.rescuegroups.org/forms Phone interview Meet and Greet Home check if feasible adults $450-550.00 Seniors $150-$275 Healthy dogs: As a rescue saving dogs from starvation, Neglect and Emaciation, RPR focus's on feeding each rescued animal the healthiest dog food made of Human Grade ingredients to help them recover from their stress and starvation.

OUR REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION 1) These animals are not livestock dogs. They must be family pets that are allowed inside the home. 2) We give preference to applicants with prior small breed knowledge/ experiences. 3) Secure visible fencing required. 4) You must have a plan in place to socialize your dog properly. 5) Please do NOT write us and ask if this dog is available. If it is posted, it is available. BUT, we may be working other applications that came in before yours. If so, by the time you are approved, the puppy may not be available. 8) The FASTEST way to be considered for a puppy is to fill out an application. If you write, it will delay your application and put you to the back of the line. All the persons processing applications are volunteers that have their own dogs, families and job responsibilities. We do our best to get applications done quickly but applications for adult dogs come before puppy applications.

Rompin 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.
