Monica is a big girl looking for a good snuggle. Monica loves to show her affection towards people. When not cuddled up, Monica loves to zoom around the house and yard looking for fun. Monica loves playing with familiar dogs, despite being cautious of unpredictable, fast movements. She gets along with both smaller and larger dogs, but has not been around cats.
Monica is doing great with potty training. She goes outside when prompted, but will need continued training since she is still working on giving her signals. Monica is working on crate-training. She is relaxed in her crate, but will have occasional accidents.
Monica is almost over-zealous when it comes to pet life. She has limitless love to give! Her foster family has suspicions that she is actually a human trapped in a dog’s body. From her quirky mannerisms to her knowing eyes, Monica is a suitable replacement or addition for human companionship! Monica has adapted very well to life as a pet and she would bring lots of love and happiness to any family she is welcomed into.

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

Monica is No Longer Accepting Applications
We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
