MOMMA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name: Momma    Best Guess for Breed: Shepherd mix

Approximate Weight: 60 pounds (as of 12/19/17)

Meet sweet Momma! Momma is a three year old shepherd  mix weighing in at 60 lbs and she can't wait to meet you!

Momma, though out of the crazy puppy stages, will still need PLENTY of exercise and cannot wait to learn with you in DC! She's dreaming of long walks and trips to the dog park in her future and would love to play with new toys, explore the neighborhood and even go to obedience classes to show off just how smart she is! She's counting down the minutes until she can meet your friends, go on trips, and cuddle up with you on the couch after a long day. As a shepherd, she will need plenty of metal stimulation daily, as well, to stay happy and healthy!

Momma is GREAT with other dogs, so she'd be a good addition to an existing pack or happy to soak up all the attention as an only dog. She hasn't yet met kids or cats - let us know if you have any and we can test her out!

Like most shelter dogs, Momma may need a refresher on housetraining. She is likely crate trained. 

Momma has tested positive and is being treated for Heartworm disease. Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites.  Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative.

The adoption fee for this dog is $450, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please download our Adoption Questionnaire and email it to Kelly R at [email protected]!

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.  That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.
