Petalo

Meet Petalo! This girl just has something special about her. She is about 5 years old, 45lbs. She looks like a lab/pointer mix with beautiful sleek black coat and gorgeous soulful brown eyes. She is a pet, and had been living in a home for all her life but then her owner moved into an apartment and surrendered all 7 of his dogs. Petalo is calm and gentle and has very good manners. She is affectionate, sweet and mellow and is fantastic with kids and other dogs. She has an air of sophistication about her. Petalo is ready to start her next chapter and be a treasured family member or BFF.

Our Vetting policy

  • Puppies (under 1 year of age) have received a veterinarian exam prior to departing, rabies vaccination (if over 4 months old), up to 3 rounds of DHLPP (dependent on age), Bordetella (kennel cough), deworming, flea/tick preventative, heart worm test and sterilization. Any further medical care or treatment will not be covered by The Rawley Project. Once you take physical possession of the animal the responsibility lies with you. We highly recommend you take you new pet to a veterinarian for a fecal test as parasites are very common in shelter environments and while they are treated before departure, they may need additional rounds of medication.

  • Adults (1 year and older) are up to date on rabies and DHPP vaccinations and accompany their most recent medical records from a veterinarian. All known issues are disclosed to the best of our ability. Once you take physical possession of the animal the responsibility lies with you.

Our Rehoming Policy

  • While we expect you to enter into any adoption with the intention to commit to being that pets forever home, if you should determine, after significant efforts have been made on your part, that an animal you adopt from The Rawley Project is not the right fit for your home you may list your pet on our site for free until you identify a suitable placement. We do not have a physical shelter and cannot physically take your animal into our care. You will need to find an appropriate solution to safely and humanely continue care for the animal while looking for a new owner.
