DOG'S DESCRIPTION


This sweet girl LOVES people but has some separation anxiety if left alone too long. She needs a home where someone is around most of the time and who is willing to work with her on her separation issues. She's a very mellow girl who is gentle and walks amazingly well on a leash. With the exception of her not doing well if left alone, she's very well behaved. Missy does fine with calmer dogs as long as there is a proper introduction but doesn't do well with high energy dogs that get in her face. She'd love to sleep in a nice comfy bed and have someone who will give her lots of love and attention.


 


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. 


Foster Program:  Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/?page_id=64 or email our Foster Coordinator at [email protected]
