About Squirrel
Squirrel is a super sweet girl that greets everyone with tail wags and kisses! Loves running around and playing, but also loves a good snuggle on the couch.
Not a fan of the crate, but she’s good in the home hanging out on the couch. So far, no destructive issues.
It’s been noted that Squirrel doesn’t like it when other dogs go near her crate, while she’s in it. Can be reactive with other dogs, while on leash, but is good with them otherwise.
Loves to play with toys and literally plays hide and seek with herself if you give her a bone! Loves to be a couch potato too!
Squirrel would benefit from basic obedience training as well as a fully fenced yard. Her ideal home would be with a fairly quiet family/person. She would make a great companion to almost anyone!
Adoption Fee | $500
Adoption fees help cover the costs associated with rescue, such as vetting, boarding, and transportation.
Prior to adoption, dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and 4Dx tested, and they receive any necessary treatment. After adoption, they are eligible for one month of free pet insurance.
For more information about adoption fees, please review our Adoption FAQs & Fees page.
Why We Love Fostering
-
I love animals and believe they all deserve a chance at love and having a happy home. Fostering has been my biggest reward in life. Often seeing these dogs go from shy, frightened, unsure, abused, and/or neglected, to the most loving, happy, and grateful family members. People always ask how I do it, but how can I not? Is it hard to let go? Of course, it is. But it’s not about me – it’s about getting these dogs into furever homes. When I see updates from adopters, nothing makes me happier. I trust Pets Alive to get these homes for my fosters, and when they leave me, sure I miss them, but it means I can take another one into my home. In all, I have fostered roughly 53 dogs. That’s 53 souls that otherwise, may not be alive today.
Why We Love Fostering
-
It has been so lovely to have an animal with us again. We have noticed a boost to their mood. It is great to be able to open our door to an animal in need, it is very rewarding watching the kitty make progress with us and coming out of their shells. Pets Alive have been very helpful with any issues, and we never feel like we are alone if we need help.
