Well, what can I say, I don't think my former family was prepared for a dog of my size. You see, I'm just a puppy and I'm already large. Supposedly, I'm a mix of Poodle/Sheepdog and Lab, but who knows, there may even be some Irish Wolfhound in there. At any rate, my family didn't get the little shaggy dog they thought they were getting, so here I am at a shelter. Ok, I'll admit it, my manners are at the bottom of the scale, no one has taken the time to teach me anything, so I'm just starting to learn stuff now that I'm at the Rescue. In my defense though, I do have a super friendly personality, so I have the makings of a wonderful companion. I'm definitely a diamond in the ruff. If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an adoption application. This avoids the disappointment of someone else has "beating you to it" because they were pre-approved. Processing an application does not take us very long but we do insist that all potential adopters are approved before placing a dog. Applying is very simple. Just log on to our website at www.caninerescue.org and select Adopt a Dog from the menu on the left side of the homepage. Just above the photo gallery you will see Adoption Application giving you a choice of 2 formats. Select one of these and complete the information requested, then save it as a file and e mail it to us. If you do
not get a response within 24 hours of sending your application, please call us at 716/326-PAWS. And be sure to check out all the dogs and puppies eagerly awaiting homes.
