Mailbox A168404 24 lb. spayed female, approx 7 months old
- Just a baby that’s unsure of the world around her - She’s definitely fearful and it seems human touch is a little bit newer to her - I did get a tiny kiss once she became comfortable with me - She’s skinny and very food motivated. This is a perfect way to gain her trust - We are working on taking snacks “easy” and she’s getting better already - She will need a patient adopter or foster to let her come around at her pace and feel safe - Will need some puppy training. Please keep that in mind if you want a puppy. They require time and patience to be the best that they can be! - Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids.
Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in.
There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption.
To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering.
**And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.**
The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-3:30 BUT our adoptions are done 7 days a week from 10:30am -3:00pm.
The last potential adopter must arrive before 3:00 pm so we have time to properly help you before closing.
