My Story
Meet Miriam, a 35-pound nearly 7 years old, belly-rub obsessed and professional kiss giver with the soul of a quirky sitcom character. She rocks “weird” like only the very best do.
Miriam loves toys, struts her stuff on a leash, is the perfect co-pilot in a car, and is crate-trained. She’s a bit of a diva, though—she needs some time and space to adjust to new people and places. But once she settles in? Boom. Best friend status unlocked.
Miriam has a special talent for disappearing like Houdini the moment thunder strikes. Rain? Thunder? Not today, Satan. She’ll be hiding under the bed, pretending the world doesn’t exist.
She even went to a board-and-train program, where her charming vocal performances earned her the nickname “Moaning Myrtle.”
Spayed, vaccinated, heartworm-negative, and ready for a home that loves belly rubs and quirky antics, Miriam is the lovable oddball soulmate that you never knew you needed but will bring endless love into your life!
PLEASE READ BELOW:
If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, the first step is to please visit our website to complete an application and read all of our FAQs: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/adopt
**Please do not use the "Introduce Yourself" feature. The information needed to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. An inquiry, question, or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application. All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info would be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the number of introductions/questions received (hundreds daily) we ask you submit an application on our website (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).
The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention. Please see our website for more information.
2022 Adoption Fee Scale for non-benefactor animals:
Puppies under 12 months - $350
Dogs over 12 months - $250
*Take Paws Rescue saves dogs from high-kill shelters in Southeast Louisiana, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our animals live in foster homes where they are socialized, and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it’s the perfect match!
For additional information, including the adoption process and our adoption fee scale for all our adoptable pets, see our FAQs page: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/faq
*Any breed labels used by Take Paws Rescue, its employees/volunteers, or on vet records provided cannot be guaranteed. Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as Pet Finder, and are no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.
