Dog's Name: Matilda Estimated Breed : Lab Mix Approximate Age: 1 year Approximate Weight: approx. 51 lbs Currently Living at: Foster Adoption Fee: $325 DOG'S DESCRIPTION Do you have a supply of tennis balls? Then you have a friend in Matilda! She loooves chasing balls! This adorable girl is so much fun! Although she gets a little timid, and seems a little nervous around men, she is an absolute joy. Will you give Matilda a loving home and family? 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.
