Story
Lissane Jacko  came to us from a breeding kennel who relinquished him by no fault of his own. He simply got too old for a pet store. This is an extremely sweet boy who is good with people & other dogs. He would benefit from some basic obedience and confidence building because he is a puppy. He has never been in a home and everything is new to him. His birth date is 10/28/23 and he currently weighs 4#. He will be groomed before adoption and require grooming for life. He has been vet. checked, neutered, micro chipped, is up to date on routine shots & wormings including rabies, and has been treated with flea & heart worm preventative per our protocol. His adoption donation is $800 and needs to be cash, certified check, money order or a debit/credit card. There is a 3% processing fee when using a debit/credit card.  Any extra funds collected in his adoption donation not used for his vetting, will go into our general vetting fund for other dogs in need. We do not ship or transport.Please email for an application if you would like to provide this nice kid with his forever home. ##1992938##
