Gidge's Story

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/generic. You can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/. Dog's Name: Gidge (GID0325ALAFS) Estimated Breed: Rat Terrier MIX Approximate Age: 1-2 years Approximate Weight: 30 lbs Currently Living at: Foster Adoption Fee: $400 DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Gidge, a young, sweet soul who can be a little shy on first meet, but warms up in no time. Despite her timidity, Gidge is eager to share her love with those who show her kindness. She gets along famously with her fellow four-legged friends, making her a good choice for a home with a confident dog to show her the way. Gidge's gentle nature and quick ability to warm up to new friends make her a wonderful potential family member. If you're looking for a loyal friend who will offer you unconditional love, Gidge is your girl. Submit an application today and give Gidge the happy home of her dreams! 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, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet. Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.
