Adelaide

PENDING ADOPTION MEET!!!<br/>OPERA SINGER LOOKING FOR A NEW AUDIENCE!!!<br/>Adelaide is a young Jack Russell terrier plus rat terrier plus Lakeland terrier plus every possible breed of terrier you can think of (DNA tested) who was found in downtown Portland last winter unable to walk. She was emaciated, filthy and had 2 luxated patellae (hind knee joints). Adelaide weighs 14 slim pounds.<br/>Adelaide had remedial surgery on her left hind leg with steel implants to hold the bone in place. Her right hind patella also luxates but pops back in on its own (this is actually fairly common with JRTs), and now that Adelaide can walk (and run) on ALL 4 legs, we are optimistic that exercise will build the muscle in that right hind leg over time. She MAY need to have corrective surgery in the future, but maybe not - and rescue will stand by her either way IF financial help is necessary. She is galloping on hiking trails on a daily basis with zero issues.<br/>Adelaide is house and crate trained and rides very well in the car. She is good on leash and has excellent recall off leash on hiking trails. She love love loves going hiking! Adelaide gets along equably with other dogs, but she can be bossy - VOCALLY bossy - and she might do best as an only. Either way, she has never shown anyone a tooth - canine or human.<br/>Adelaide gets over-excited easily - we are hoping this will tone down as she matures - so she can be VERY noisy if it is time for a walk or anything exciting is happening. She is a vocal drama queen. So no apartments, condos or town homes, please.<br/>Adelaide is in foster care in Clatskanie, Oregon. Her adoption fee is $200.
