Adopting a dog is a serious decision. All of our dogs receive medical care prior to adoption, including a senior wellness exam, blood work, vaccinations, microchip and any other necessary procedures needed to improve their quality of life. We also encourage our adopters to take a proactive approach with their new senior dog’s diet and health. Our adoption process includes the following once an application is APPROVED (if your application is not approved, you will not hear from us):
Please note we only adopt our dogs to homes in/around Idaho. We require a home check and so do not adopt out of state. Filling out an adoption application does not guarantee approval for adoption.
**All available dogs are also available to sponsor while they are in the care of the rescue.
MEET SWEET PEA: Are you looking for a new pea to add to your pod?! Sweet Pea joined our rescue in November 2019. She lives for belly rubs and dinner time!
Sweet Pea’s personality is true to her name, she is truly a sweetheart who loves being near her people. Sweet Pea is a 13 year old shih tzu mix and is roughly 30 pounds.
Sweet Pea is special needs as she is diabetic and blind. She is not fond of her insulin shots (for diabetes) and needs someone who is patient and willing to work with her as long it takes for her to get used to it. Long term medical care is required for Sweet Pea, regular follow ups with a veterinarian to make sure she’s on the right dosage of insulin.
We are working on getting her comfortable in her new surroundings. She will do best in a home where someone is home for most of the day, as she can get nervous and cry when left alone for long periods of time. We believe this is partially due to her being newly blind. She does well in her foster home with small dogs her size and cats who do not try to interact with her. Sweet Pea does not wish to play or cuddle with other pets in the home but does not mind that they are there as long as they respect her space ‘bubble’. Sweet Pea does best being separated from other dogs whenever food is involved.

MEET SCRAPPY! – AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
Arrghh Matey! It’s me, Scrappy! I’ve recently become a one eyed pirate and am looking for a family to give me a loving home for my golden years!
Scrappy joined our rescue end of August 2020 and is at least 10 years old & 20 lbs. He has multiple health issues but is a tough cookie! He was surrendered to a rural Texas shelter and flown to Idaho via Dog is my Copilot. He arrived with poor eyes that were clearly infected and one was bulging and very painful, he also has a heart murmur and skin issues with thin fur. We believe him to be an affenpinscher mix.
Scrappy was neutered and had an single enucleation (eye removal) surgery Sep 21, 2020, his heart did well under anesthesia!
Scrappy is looking for a calm home to retire in, full of love and ideally with a yard to explore! Scrappy does well with other dogs, has not been tested with cats. He would do best in a home without children as he is adjusting to life with one eye and could be startled by children’s loud noises and quick movements.
