Buffy arrived at NCCR on 7/23/22, pulled from an out of state shelter that ran out of room for her. She is an approximately 8 week old female mixed breed, weighing around 5 pounds. It is unknown what her breed mix might include, so it is anyone’s guess how big she might get as an adult! As with all puppies, she will require ongoing daily training, lots of exercise and playtime, and plenty of patience and love to help her become the best dog she can be. ** Buffy is in foster care; appointments to meet her will be arranged for approved applicants so if you are interested in her, put in your application!
If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.
We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.
*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
Buffy is kindly sponsored by Meg Thering in memory of Natasha Kailaclass’s cat, Kit. She is also sponsored by Suzanne and former NCCR residents, Tillie Mae and Bron Bron, by Dan Courtine in honor of Brutie, Kelsey Thomas, Marilyn and Jerry Bertges in memory of Libby and by Bette Lou Wisler. Thank you everyone!
