Foster this dog on Facebook!

Most of our Papillons are adopted as close as possible to their foster homes. Each foster parent gives their heart and love to the butterflies in their care and it is hard to part with them. If you are interested in a Papillon that is not in your home state, you may still send an application, however, every effort is first made to place the dogs within a reasonable distance. We request that the applicant is willing to come to the home to meet the dog and to be sure the match is a good one.

While not all homes are suitable for the physically and emotionally fragile dogs that come into our rescue, we tend to have more people willing to rescue our Papillons than we have dogs available. We are grateful for the kindness of so many people. There may be a delay in finding the right dog for you, and each application is carefully scrutinized. It may take 2 weeks or more before you hear from someone in our volunteer organization.

Our adoption guidelines are stated preceeding the application page. Please read them carefully. Any transportation expenses are the full responsibility of the adopter. Suggested adoption donation:

For healthy dogs up to two years of age: $350-$450
For healthy dogs between the ages of two and six:$ 250-$350
For healthy dogs between the ages of six and nine: $150-$250
Geriatric or "special needs" dogs: donation is set on a case-by-case basis

Description:
Well Hello there! My name is Tori and I am a REAL redhead. Not many real redheads around, you know? Mostly, a Papillon might be sable - that means there are black hairs mixed in with the red ones. But not me! I'm special!

I had a pretty hard life for a while, just having puppy after puppy. When I got away from that place, I did not know how to be a around people. A nice family took me home, but I was so scared I hid under the bed and barked. If I got put in a crate, like the old days, I was terrified that I would be left there forever. I just cried and cried and even pooped in my crate.

Then I went over to the Dog House where there are lots and lots of Papillons just like me. Now that I know how special I am, I am not so afraid anymore. My beautiful red hair had been falling out but now it is growing back. I found out how good it feels to have a full tummy and to get scratched behind the ears. Some times I still scrunch way down when someone reaches for me - I got hit a lot in the other days. But then I remember, hands are good! They have treats in them and lots of soft soft love touches.

It may take a while, but I am on my way! After all - I am a REAL redhead ---That's why they named me Tori.
