DOG'S DESCRIPTION


This poor girl was tossed out like trash by her owners...who even took her collar when they dumped her at the shelter saying "well at least this is worth SOMETHING". WHHAAATTT?  This young gal is beautiful and adorable and soooo sweet and is now looking for a new FUREVER home that won't toss her out like garbage.  She's good with other dogs (but does like to play rough), but we are not sure about cats.  She has a higher energy level.


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/foster/ or email our Foster Coordinator at .[email protected].
