Princess is as sweet as can be, full of love and very attentive, considering when she arrived into our care, she was emaciated with hair loss, a severe injury to her front leg, following someone who threw her from a moving vehicle and she had several BB pellets, where clearly she was shot at. A tough time for Princess but she is as resilient as ever. She received extensive surgical treatment for her leg and foot injury from a specialized Vet, who was able to save her leg and give her a chance at a normal life.
Princess is in foster care being spoilt rotten, as she deserves, she is receiving ongoing care for her hair loss concerns but looking a million times better these days. She's also receiving heartworm treatment to get her to the negative status and working on removing excess skin from previous pregnancies. She's a great companion for someone or would make a great family dog, being good with kids and other dogs. She's not going to win the 100 meters anytime soon due to her leg but she will keep up with the best of them.
Adoption Holds can be placed on pets for a non-refundable fee of $50 for up to three (3) days, when stray holds are complete. Adoption hold fees count towards the adoption fee and are transferable.
All pets are fully vaccinated at the time of adoption and includes one year Rabies, deworming treatment, flea treatment, spay or neuter surgery prior to adoption or scheduled through The Clinic at the time of adoption for a return no cost visit.

The adoption fee covers the spay/neuter surgery, rabies vaccination, basic vaccinations, microchipping, and care. All basic vaccinations will be current at the time of adoption.
A potential adopter is required to fill out an adoption application which includes information regarding their home environment, current/prior pets, etc. We also require them to provide at least 2 references. A volunteer will review the application, contact the references, and provide information regarding the specific pet they are interested in adopting.

Due to our limited staff, our office is only open part-time, but we will return all phone calls as soon as possible.
