Description
Hansel is an Australian Cattledog/ Red Heeler.
He currently weighs around 35 lbs.
Hansel was born in August 2022.
He joined our rescue in November 2022.
Hansel is a really sweet dog.
He is extremely smart, crate-trained, and potty-trained.
Hansel is currently in a foster home with other dogs and cats.
His foster has worked really hard at building his confidence and working with his nervousness. He has made incredible strides and is doing much better accepting new people into his circle.
He does take time to warm up and will need a lot of time to acclimate.
Due to his trepidation, he will not be adopted into a home with children.
He loves long walks, visiting the beach, and hiking.
He does extremely well at doggie daycare and at dog parks.
Hansel is not a fan of car rides or going to the vet. For his safety, as with all dogs, we recommend that he be harnessed to a seatbelt or ride in a carrier during car rides.
Adoption Process
Caring Animal Rescue Inc believes that every animal deserves a good home, but we also believe that not every animal is right for every home.
We take the time to learn about an animal's behavior and match it with the lifestyle of potential adopters.
All applicants must submit an online adoption application.
You must provide verifiable vet references, verifiable address match, and character references.
If you list that you are the owner of a home, we will verify property records.
If you list that you are a tenant, we will verify that pets are allowed on your lease agreement with your tenant.
By applying to adopt, you are agreeing that we have permission to contact your vet, landlord, and character references.
If you do not agree with our screening process, please do not apply.
Applicants must agree to our screening processes before a meet and greet, and at-home visit is scheduled.
All existing animals within the home must be up to date with vaccinations and spayed/ neutered.
All kittens under 10 months old will be adopted in pairs unless there is an existing cat in the home.
Completing our application does not guarantee that you will be matched with one of our animals. We are under no obligation to disclose our reason(s) for our decision.
Please note: Our adoption fees will vary.
Our Adoption Process:
1. Please apply here: https://www.caringanimalrescueinc.com/adoption-form<br><br>We require applications to be completed in their entirety.
Any application with questions not answered fully will not be considered complete and will not be processed.
2. Please note that we are volunteers.
We do not have any paid staff.
All applications are processed outside of our normal non-rescue jobs.
An application does not guarantee approval of adoption.
Our decision is based on what is the best fit for our dogs and cats.
We will call your character references, landlord if applicable, as well as your vet and any other necessary calls needed to approve or deny an application.
3. Phone or email interview.
We will notify you if your application is approved.
4. Meet and greet - we will only schedule meet and greets for those who have passed steps 1-3.
We ask that you come to our facility for the initial meet and greet. If you have children, roommates, or other dogs, they must also be present.
5. Home visit/ Pet meet and greet - we want to make sure that all humans and pets are a good match!
Due to the requirement of home visits, we are currently adopting only 25 miles or less of our location. The distance is at our discretion, as we must factor in gas and round-trip travel time.
We are not currently adopting out-of-state.
We have chosen a small radius near our facility to provide support to our adopted animals and their new families.
Caring Animal Rescue Inc. does not have any paid staff.
All monies, adoption fees, donations, etc., go directly to paying for the shelter and care of the animals in our rescue.
If all goes well at the home visit, the pet can stay, and we will move on to step 6.
6. Adoption Finalization - sign the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee - we accept cash, checks, Venmo, or PayPal. Please note that there is an additional processing fee for PayPal and Venmo.
