Cody~Adopted

Cody is a beautiful little male Shepherd mix pup who was found as a stray with his siblings in Little Rock. Cody and his siblings were all captured and taken down to the shelter where they could at least get some clean water and fresh food. However, the shelter can be a frightening and risky place for puppies so young where the risk of infection from a number of life threatening diseases is high. Fortunately for Cody a visiting volunteer from DogsOnly her and sprung him from the pound. Cody is now safe and happy in a secure foster home where he will get all the love, attention he needs and deserves. Cody will probably grow up to be first-class canine companion. However he is not for a family seeking an "easy" puppy, because there is no such thing. Please remember that as beautiful and cuddly as Cody is at the moment, he will grow into adult canine companion in no time at all. You should also be prepared for the usual trial of rearing a young puppy including the chewing, crying, potty training, and constant demands. For this reason we would prefer that Cody’s new guardians have experience with young puppies and understand their special needs. Remember, just like kids, puppies grow up real fast, and need lots of patience, love and attention along the way. An adoption fee of $125 applies to Cody’s adoption, which covers all necessary vet care to include that scary neuter (mandatory - no exceptions), rabies, micro-chipping and registration, all vaccinations (including all puppy shots, rabies, adult boosters and Bordatella), grooming, Frontline for flea/tick preventative, heartworm check if age appropriate and preventative, collar and 50% of basic training classes. To learn more about Cody, you can send an email to [email protected] or complete an online adoption application by clicking the orange colored text links at the top or bottom of his official bio page at www.dogsonly.org/580pop.html. Due to time restraints, we are not able to accept phone calls outside of our regular showing time at Petco on Chenal across from Target and Home Depot on Saturdays from 1:00 to 4:00, but we always try and answer all emails within 24 hours. All of our young and adult dogs require a 2 week home visit before finalizing the adoption process. This is to help ensure it is a good match for all involved without making a final commitment. All of our rescues are in private homes and are not available to be visited outside of showing times. You can also meet the pups and find out for yourself how wonderful and happy Cody really is at the DogsOnly adoption showings. Please don’t be tempted to adopt a puppy on an impulse. You should take the time to carefully consider the long term commitment, expense, and passion it takes to give them the home they deserve. They’ll reward you with unbounded love and devotion, but you must be committed and serious about your decision to bring them into your life. Remember, this is an adoption, not a sale, and we’re very serious about making sure that both you and your puppy are a good match for each other. All DogsOnly foster homes work with our rescues to ensure they are crate trained and most are also housetrained. None of the DogsOnly fosters have cats in their homes so we can only make our best guess as to how our rescues would do with cats. We rescue from high kill shelters and once accepted into our program, none of our rescues are euthanized. We provide for all their vet care, socialization and training until an appropriate home can be found. DogsOnly relies solely on donations and is a 501(c)3 Humane Society. Our mission is to rescue dogs that most other groups are not interested in due to their size, breed, age, health or other various reasons, and to provide education resources for dog owners and those with an interest in the wellbeing of dogs. DogsOnly believes that no dog should be left behind. Thank you for your interest in rescue and in saving the life of a dog. Every day in the United States, 11,000 dogs die. Why Buy When You Can Save?
