About Grandpa Maurice

* Please apply online at www.6dogrees.com by doing so you will get a response quicker. Meet Grandpa Maurice! Maurice is a miniature poodle weighing 15 pounds, and is 13-years old. We are looking for a special home to shower him with attention in his golden years. His adoption fee is a tax-deductible donation of $300. Maurice spends his days lounging on a fluffy bed and dreaming of loving family of his own. He enjoys a slow walk in the yard, exploring his surroundings and smelling the fresh air. �'�|His joints are no longer nimble so he moves quite slowly. The highlight to his day is meal time, a big bowl of yummy food makes him very happy. He immediately perks up bit when his foster mom is preparing dinner, sometimes even hopping with a little excitement. Maurice's eyes are a bit cloudy, but still have a sweet sparkle a see a familiar face. He loves to lay on laps and quickly relaxes as you give him attention. He is a true lap-dog. Maurice will require a family that can comfortably lift 15-pounds. He does not do stairs, and even short ledges can pose a challenge for him. He will also need a grain-free diet to keep him healthy and coat beautiful. As Maurice is a poodle, regular grooming every 6 to 8 weeks will be necessary. Maurice is a rescue dog, and rescue dogs require routine and stability. Please be prepared for a lifelong commitment before applying. Ideally, Maurice should be pottied every 4 to 5 hours. Dogs cannot be left alone for 8 hours per day. Home check and plan must be carefully thought out and presented at time of interview. He is fostered North of Seattle, and if interested please submit an online adoption application at www.6dogrees.com and we will review and get back to you promptly. An adoption application must be filled out for all inquiries and prior to a meet and greet. We will review and respond to applications, not all applications will necessarily be approved for a meet and greet. Home check prior to adoption approval. Adoption fee include: Neuter, microchip, current vaccines (DA2PP, rabies, bordatella) de-worming, flea treatment, and heart worm testing. We also include a 15-minute training consultation with a certified behaviorist trainer and 30-day pet insurance. 6dogrees Rescue is a small passionate Seattle based 501c3 non-profit charitable organization that focuses on saving the lives of urgent dogs on their last hours at high kill shelters from the State of California where pet overpopulation is at epidemic levels and kill shelters are the norm. 100% of all fees collected are spent on the dogs, we 'Save it forward'; so each time a dog is adopted we are allowed to save another.
