Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.wagoninn.rescuegroups.org Sparkle is a very beautiful girl who is looking for her forever home. She is now in a NJ foster home and doing very well, although she has been diagnosed with epilepsy. She is under the care of the wonderful neurologists at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital, and is on epilepsy medication. Sparkle is a very happy puppy who loves to play and to snuggle. She loves other dogs and has been great with children and adults. Sparkle is housetrained - she uses the doggie door in her foster home, but will learn how to ask. She weighed 55 lbs at 6 months, so we are estimating that she'll weigh 75 lbs full grown. Sparkle needs a family that will continue to care for her. The epilepsy medication isn't very expensive (if you use GoodRx and purchase at a human pharmacy), but it will need to be tweaked as she grows. She'll need to be tested to make sure the blood levels of the anti-seizure medications continue to be appropriate. We've been told that the protocol is to test adult dogs with epilepsy every 6 months. Background: Mom (Spirit) wandered up to the home of an animal lover on Thanksgiving after being dumped nearby. She was very pregnant and huddled behind their barn. This kind family took her into their barn to give her a safe place to have her pups and fostered the sweet family until they came to NJ. The pups were born on December 5, 2023. Mom Spirit is about 40 lbs. We have no info on dad, but he must have been on the larger size since all of the pups are going to be larger than Spirit. Sparkle has received all of her puppy vaccines, her rabies vaccine, and treatment for puppy parasites. She has been spayed and microchipped. Sparkle's adoption fee is $550. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me!
