DOG'S DESCRIPTION

This poor sweetie was dropped at a high kill shelter in GA simply because she was in heat. Well, folks, that's what happens when you don't spay!  The good news is, K-9 Lifesavers stepped up to save her and she is now looking for a family with a nice big yard for her to run in OR take this lovely lady on runs through the park. She is very sweet and friendly, knows a few commands and is even housebroken (per her previous owners). She is not terribly fond of other dogs, and for this reason she should be the only dog in your home. 

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.
