Hi I'm Mariska! My foster parents tell me I have the cutest little pouty face, but don't let that fool you because I'm really the happiest girl! If you never want to be lonely again you can count on me to follow you anywhere and always be by your side. I'm only a year old so I still enjoy being playful especially with my doggy foster siblings, but I do enjoy lazy days on a couch and at 33 lbs I'm the perfect size for your lap. If that's not enough, I'm great with cats, potty trained, crate trained, and excellent on car rides. I'm pretty much the whole package in a mini pittie body, what more could you ask for?
Adoption Process
Applicants must fill out an application at www.adoptapitrescue.org/apply. We screen all applications, with approved applicants passing a vet and landlord check. All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered and up to date on all vaccinations and on year-round heartworm preventative. Non-homeowners must have permission from their landlord to have a dog. Once approved, we schedule a home visit, where an adoption representative takes the dog to the adopter's home to see if the dog is a good fit for the family and other pets, as well as verify the home is a safe environment for the dog. If everyone feels the dog is a good fit, a contract is signed, adoption fee is paid, and the family takes possession of the dog, unless other arrangements are made. Typical adoption fees are $175 for adult dogs and $200 for puppies. We reserve the right to charge different fees for "designer" breeds. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested, and on heartworm preventative at the time of adoption. All dogs have been examined by our veterinarian and given a clean bill of health at the time of adoption.
