Momma and her daughter were found wandering through the neighborhood of her rescuer in October, 2008. They were dirty, very hungry and had collars with no tags. Their collars were so tight that ulcers had formed beneath them. Momma and her daughter would cower whenever anyone approached them, but after some kind and gentle words of encouragement they were finally coaxed inside, bathed, fed, and taken for a trip to the Vet.
Momma and her daughter was discovered to be heartworm positive, but their rescuers decided to have them both treated and given all needed shots. Both have been on maintenance medication since. They are very sweet and loving, and make excellent pets. Although they both love children and other pets including a male Schnauzer, a female Yorkie and two elderly female cats, their rescuer also cares for about 10 feral cats outside. As much as they are loved, it would be best for both girls to find a loving home to call their own.
Momma loves her food and treats. She loves to snuggle on the couch and likes to cuddle and have her tummy rubbed. She takes lots of naps. She also likes to be outside hunting bugs and frogs and sleeping in the sunshine.
Momma is an independent rescue supported by DogsOnly, so she will not be available to meet every Saturday except for holiday weekends at the DogsOnly adoption showing at Petco on Chenal Parkway across from Target and Home Depot (click here for directions). However you can contact Momma’s rescuer and foster directly at cshoptaw@comcast.net or send an email to DogsOnly at contact@dogsonly.org. You are also encouraged to submit an online adoption application by clicking the orange colored links at the top or bottom of this page. Your adoption application will be forwarded to Momma’s foster family.
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 not available to be visited outside of showing times.
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.
