A Benefactor Dog will have an above average adoption fee. In other words, for OTHER dogs where the adoption fee is minimal or waived due to age, health or some other reason (although we&#39;ve likely spent hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars) a Benefactor dog will help us somewhat make up the shortfall. If this dog has an above-average adoption fee, she/he is a Benefactor Dog.<br/><br/>Good with other dogs: yes<br/><br/>Cats: we were told she doesn&#39;t like cats<br/><br/>Vetting and other: altered (spayed), up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, fecal negative, on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped<br/><br/>Health issues: none observed.<br/><br/>Temperament: very sweet, happy, playful, can have nervous energy if in unfamiliar environment, loves to be held/cuddled<br/><br/>Energy level: medium<br/><br/>Groom needs: medium-high maintenance; requires regular maintenance of her wiry coat - will pull away when trimming face but did let us trim her up.<br/><br/>Biography: Suki came in with Ohtani. We were contacted by the caretaker of an elderly woman that she needed help with her dogs. Here&#39;s what we were told or have determined about Suki:<br/><br/>Her former human has had her since she was a puppy.<br/>She is friendly and social.<br/>She slept in bed, while Ohtani slept in the den.<br/>When her humans left the home, she stayed in kennel.<br/>She travels well and walks ok on a leash.<br/>She is not destructive.<br/>Does pretty well during grooming (other than trying to pull away when grooming face) and was done in-home.<br/>She loves toys, loves to be held and is the goodest girl.<br/>Acclimates easily - acts like she&#39;s always been at the rescue.<br/><br/>**WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW**<br/><br/>*We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved. We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.<br/><br/>*Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever! We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family! We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds. There is no exception to this rule!<br/><br/>*PREDATORS: IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times! PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER! For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna&#39;s house RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR. Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive. TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!<br/><br/>*NO SMALL CHILDREN!! As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended. Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL! Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.<br/><br/>*HOUSETRAINING: We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained. While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night. Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn&#39;t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home. Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.<br/><br/>*KENNELING: We always recommend kenneling when you cannot supervise your dog. This helps with housetraining and any destructive tendencies until you get to know your knew addition.<br/><br/>*We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome. Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.<br/><br/>*Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply. If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty. That&#39;s our guarantee.<br/><br/>Other notes: This pet is available for adoption through Ninna&#39;s Road to Rescue, Benton, La. We are 501c3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to rescue primarily small-breed dogs and to re-home them into RESPONSIBLE and CARING forever homes.
