Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Balin is a super sweet mixed breed pup born in February 2013. At best guess, he is a Border Collie/Pit/Hound mix. He has a lovely tan coat, cute perky ears, and one blue eye - how cool!
Balin is socializing with people and other animals, as well as practicing good doggy behaviors. He's your typical puppy - energetic, playful, inquisitive, and all around happy-go-lucky. If Balin sounds like a good match for you, please ask about him today!
****His adoption fee is $295.****
The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues—and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.
All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws.
Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $25 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization.
The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.
