12 Weeks: Distemper/Parvo Vaccination completed at the veterinarian of adopter's choice.

**Spay/Neuter surgeries cost between $200-$400 for a neuter surgery and $400-$600 for a spay surgery in the FM Area. Wellness visits can run from $75 to $150 for each visit. If you are thinking of adopting a puppy, it's a good idea to research these costs before adopting by calling the veterinarian of your choice.   

 

Tequila is ready to be the life of your party!

 

**   Tequila has been exposed to Parvovirus, but did not test positive. Because there is a chance he may have the virus, Tequila cannot be exposed to other puppies for 3 months. Caution should be taken with exposing him to adult healthy dogs too, but the risk of an adult healthy dog contracting Parvo is minimal. Absolutely no dog parks, human parks, puppy school or pet stores for at least 3 months (ends 1/20/25)

Foster Home Feedback 

11/03/2024 Foster Feedback:  Tequila is a typical puppy - adorable, snuggly, curious, playful, sweet and smart!  He is currently about 10 weeks old and 15 pounds, but growing fast!  

Tequila handled his first nail trim like a champ - he just appreciated lots of snuggles in between clips.  He enjoys playing with toys and chewing on his appropriate toys.  He quickly picked up on chasing a tennis ball and picking it up and bringing it back (sort of).  The tennis ball is a little big for him now, but that doesn't keep him from trying to carry it as far as he can!    He loves being outside and exploring the yard.  Tequila is great about taking care of his business when outside, but at his age, there are still some accidents inside.  Most of the time he goes on a potty pad, but occasionally he misses a little.  It usually happens if he has just been playing hard and his foster parents don't realize he should go out after those intense play sessions!  He plays hard and then sleeps hard.  Puppies need their rest to be ready for more play!  He is learning to be respectful of the elder dogs in the house. Tequila goes in his crate easily and is usually content to rest in there.  He will sometimes whine or bark initially but then realizes it's just time for a nap!   At night, Tequila is content sleeping by your feet if he gets to sleep in bed.  In his crate, he will generally sleep through the night.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

There is a pre-adoption application, reference check, and home visit required prior to adopting an animal. There is an adoption donation/fee applied to all dogs. This fee ranges from $100-150. These fees help cover the veterinary care we have provided for the animals while they wait for homes. The fee also helps pay for the food and other general care we provide for the dogs. You must be 21 yrs or older to adopt a dog and can not live in a an area where there are dog breed bans. We do adopt to homes outside on the area, but there are special requirements for out of state adopters.

Go meet their pets

We regularly have "Meet the Dogs!" events at the West Fargo PetSmart store. These events will give you the opportunity to meet some of the dogs we have available for adoption and to visit with our volunteers. See our website for schedule dates/times.
