DOG'S DESCRIPTION
Bud is a very sweet boy. He LOVES people and he is good with other dogs, but he can be a bit aggressive in his greeting behavior, so he tends to scare most dogs. He has no ill intention, just overbearing in his desire to say "Hi!" He's powerful and playful and needs an active family to exercise him and train him. He needs a strong handler and some training. He is a dominant dog, but not a mean guy. He'd probably best as an only dog until he gets some training and improves his manners. Bud is a quiet guy, and would be a good fit for an apartment living as long as he gets exercise.
Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.
Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (for dogs over 6 months old), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets.
