About Yetti

[Read About Natural Seizure Care] Meet Yetti! This is a very special boy who needs a very special home! Yetti is a 1 year 4 month old mix of Maltese and Poodle and weighs in at about 16 pounds. His coat is as soft as can be and he is hypoallergenic and non-shedding. Yetti came into rescue at the end of November having been kept in a crate alot and had no socialization. He was very frightened and hid and the saving grace was that he loves other dogs. In his foster home he has been with a 3 German Shepherds and 2 little dogs as well as a myriad of fosters that have come and gone. Shortly after Yetti came into rescue he had his first seizure and then shortly thereafter had a second. They were not major seizure and one pill a day controls them. He is currently being switched onto something more natural that has great success and better than the pharmaceutical. He began to really blossom in rescue and after a month's stay went to a new home with another dog(which is always optimal for him but not a necessity). After about 8 weeks they decided it would not work out as Yetti never warmed up to the husband and was very attached to the wife. So he came back to the rescue. Yetti is by nature a bit shy at first. But in the right home he will continue to blossom as he has in rescue. He LOVES walks on the leash and the more he is exposed to new people the happier he will be. He is male selective however he LOVES our big male groomer and one of our male fosters. He definitely prefers women and would thrive in a home with a female and hopefully another very playful dog. We are looking for a family who will stay committed to him. The rescue will be intimately involved in transitioning him to a new home and with any further training needs. He loves to play fetch and he loves to stand on his back legs and give you high fives. He is very sweet and loving. He has not had one seizure since being back in rescue and is on the lowest medication amount possible. His adoption fee includes his neuter, current vaccinations including rabies, professional grooming, harness, leash, bed, toys, one month supply of medication (which is only about $20 a month) as well as starter food and continued training and support from the rescue. An adoption fee does apply. Please tell us a bit about you such as your lifestyle, work schedule, activity level, area you live in, house or apartment, how many adults, children and pets in the home, where your pet stays when you are at work or out, where your pet will sleep, and your breed/dog experience. Some notes to consider before applying for Yetti: 1. Poodles and Maltese breeds do need to be groomed every 4 to 6 weeks to keep them from ever being matted. 2. We are not affiliated with Smashface Rescue. Please do not call them. Your call will not be returned. 3. Please make sure you are ready to adopt before coming to see our adoptable dogs. We are a foster based rescue and do not have the space to hold dogs for a couple of weeks while you vacation or make your way to California to come and adopt. We will adopt out of state but ONLY if the potential adopter comes here to adopt in person and that is after a screening by Skype. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS EVER. 4. We are often inundated with emails about our adoptable dogs and try as we might to make everyone happy it is nearly impossible with only one dog and sometimes up to 50 potential families. The more information you provide in your email to us the quicker we will get back to you. If you have written to us before about a particular dog and did not receive a response please do try again. Every dog has different home requirements that we search for so sometimes you are the right fit for the dog we are trying to place. Thank you for choosing to adopt!
