Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Interested in adoption? The first step is an application at www.paddyspaws.blogspot.com. Please do not apply if pets in the home are not up to date per our website requirements or are not altered. Wisconsin applications are priority, but Illinois applications will be considered if no small children are present in the home, the home is owned, and excellent vet reference can be provided. We cannot process applications from other states.
Henry is currently living in a foster home in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin.
Henry was found as a stray in Houston, Texas, hanging out in an abandoned house surrounded by broken glass. It was clear that he did not belong to anyone. Despite being little in size, Henry has a big personality. He leaves an unforgettable impression! He is very fluffy and has a low-rider body and he knows he is adorable! He likes to be the one in charge so he would benefit from having an owner who can be firm (in a positive manner) and consistent. Henry is successful in his foster home when he gets clear limits. He is estimated to be about a year old and can be both a couch potato but will also tear around his foster's fenced-in yard chasing after the other dogs in the home. Despite his short little legs, he really is quick so keeping doorways and entryways secure is important. Henry would love to have a fenced-in yard to hang out in.
Henry needs lots of time and space when meeting new people. Thus far he has been unable to interact appropriately with new people, but it is a goal his foster is working on with him. He prefers quieter environments with only one person. He would love a calm home to live in with just one adult as he is a very loyal dog and bonds with that one person really well. Henry would prefer to live in a house, as an apartment building has too many people coming and going. He would love to find an adopter who is a home-body and does not like to host parties or gatherings at their home. If you have children (17 and under) or are planning to have children in the future, Henry is unfortunately not the dog for you. Henry is skeptical of people of both genders, but particularly males. When he trusts you, all he wants to do is have you pet him or cuddle him. To date, Henry has found one person that he trusts. Henry lives with four other dogs in his foster home and does well with them. This is really an area of strength for Henry since he more easily accepts new dogs than people. His favorite playmates are the younger, higher energy dogs in the home as he likes to chase them or wrestle in a friendly manner. Henry also loves all kinds of toys and is treat motivated. Henry has not lived with cats, but he does have a higher prey drive based on other woodland creatures that he encounters. He is looking for an extra special adopter who is willing to be his best friend. Henry needs someone who can commit to living a lifestyle that suits him.
Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and once
approved a meet and greet with the dog. Please note that preference is given to adopters in
Wisconsin, but Illinois adoptions will be considered. will be considered. Adoption fee is $250.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption process works a bit different than other shelters and rescues and we don't have a facility because we are foster based. Like most foster-based organizations, we set up all appointments on an individual basis. Prior to any meet and greets, we require an approved application so we will need to go through all the steps before having you meet any of the available dogs here in Wisconsin. We cannot guarantee the availability of any dog until all application materials are submitted and approved (including homevisit and reference calls). With the nature of our rescue, there is no shortage of available dogs just like this one, so we do highly recommend that folks continue through the process so that we can help find you a match!
Applicants must be 21 or older and we do not make exceptions to this age requirement. All applicants should be residing in their permanent residence at time of application. If you are moving, we do ask that you wait to apply until you have completely moved into your new residence before completing an application. If you are renting, the name and number of your landlord must be provided (we cannot process without), and permission must be given to contact him or her. If permission is not given, we will not continue to process the application. We do not adopt dogs that are listed on the restricted breed list to any applicants who are renting.
We start with the completed application and then complete a background check to ensure the safety of our home visit representatives and our rescue pets. We invite applicants to share more about potential issues on your background check, but do want to note that we will not send a representative to a home where crimes of a violent nature have been committed. Next, we check vet records. Please do not apply if you have a dog or cat that is not altered, or is not up to date on vaccinations, unless there is a documented medical reason. We require a minimum of a rabies vaccination for cats or current wellness exam, and rabies and DHLPP for dogs in the home. Heartworm preventative and testing is also a high priority on our vet checks.
Please note:
Prior to completing an application, please contact your veterinarian to give permission for a release of records. Vet information must be provided for any and all pets who have been in your care in the last five years.
The next step is a homevisit with family and one of our representatives. Home visits can take several weeks to schedule due to volunteer availability and based on your location. Please note: we are 100% volunteer run and we are limited in the areas we can get to. Some locations can take an extended time to locate a representative and new volunteers may need to be recruited to complete your visit. Out of state applications are accepted, however, processing time can be delayed and priority is given to in-state residents. Representatives may call your references before or after the visit.

More about this rescue
Our primary goal is to find adoptive homes for these amazing animals that are located in shelters, rescues and foster homes. How does it work? You fill out a Paddy's Paws Application which will be submitted for approval for adoption to the Houston rescues.
Our adoption process works a bit different than other shelters and rescues! Paddy's Paws serves as a coordinator for Houston rescues. We send out the applications, arrange homevisits and secure back up fosters for each of the dogs that will be transported here. Like most foster-based organizations, we do not have a facility and set up all appointments on an individual basis. Prior to any meet and greets, we require an approved application so we will need to go through all the steps before having you meet any of the available dogs here in Wisconsin.
The application, reference checks and homevisit are considered part of the general approval process and we cannot guarantee that a specific dog will still be available when you complete the process, but doing so will get you access to our "match making" service where you will have bios and pictures of multiple dogs that may be exactly what you're looking for! And, of course, there's always the possibility that the dog that sparked your initial interest will still be available!

We start with the completed application and then check references/vet records. The next step is a homevisit with family and one of our representatives. Once we have gathered all this information, we provide it to the Houston team. Then, we can set up a meet and greet with available dogs.
