If you are interested in adopting this dog, please download and complete an Adoption Questionnaire from our website and email US at adopt@k-9lifesavers.org You can learn about the adoption process and find a Word, PDF and ONLINE version of the questionnaire by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/. Dog's Name: Dunkel Estimated Breed : Catahoula Leopard Dog/Retriever Mix Approximate Age: 2 years Approximate Weight: approx. 60 lbs Currently Living at: Boarding Adoption Fee: $325 DOG'S DESCRIPTION While Dunkel is opening up at the kennel, he is still scared and can be unpredictable, so he should go to an adult-only home as kids will be far too overwhelming for him. Dunkel would do best with an experienced dog owner. With the right loving family, he will be a wonderful pet. Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family. Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery, rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dogs also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets. Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.
