I am micro-chipped, am heart-worm Negative, have all my vaccinations, received a thorough dental. I had already been spayed and have been evaluated for more than 2 weeks by my foster family who have undergone the SRC approval process and reside in Blowing Rock, NC. I was shy and now have warmed up well to my foster family especially my foster dad -- our walks are great fun yet I am doing very well to leash training.
(SRC#1814) BELL's Story
BELL with this unique identification number: (SRC#1814) came into our custody and care this summer. Now vetted this dog is being prepared for adoption by a foster family who has gone thru our approval process and she is responding very well .
Bell (1814) had Grade 4 Dental which helped her life expectancy considerably. Although she had already been spayed SRC addresses all their needs and Bell was in need of a thorough dental. This healed her infection that was in her mouth with no permanent damage so now Bell has the opportunity to enjoy a long and healthy life. We got her just in time because our vet said if this had been left to do damage she could have eventually begun to show some bone loss in her jaw and without medical care that might have caused problems. Fortunately the SRC vet caught it early and she is now healed with no issues! She eats well just like any canine does. SRC is so grateful we were able to rescue her because she is such a sweetheart. Here is what her foster mom had to say about her after only a couple of days:
Noq ready for adoption this dog is heart-worm tested (negative), de-wormed, vaccinations up to date, spayed/neutered if not done already, micro-chipped, examined by a vet and any necessary medical issues found by this vet will have been addressed.
