Valentina Terrier Mix Columbia, IL

Foster mom loves this girl! She is sweet and a bit shy at first. LOVES kisses and belly rubs. She is playful, enjoys the back yard where she likes fetch and plays on her own. Valentina likes her walks and riding in the car. She is very friendly with everyone and has the best smile! This gorgeous pit mix came in as a stray and has quickly become a staff favorite. Now it's time for us to help Valentina find a forever home.

Valentina is one year old and weighs 48 pounds.

The adoption fee for adult dogs, seven months and older, is $250. All pets are microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and will be altered prior to adoption.

Valentina has heartworms and will be starting treatment soon. She would greatly benefit from having a calm home to recuperate in rather than trying to rest in a noisy and stressful shelter environment. If you would like to provide a foster home during Valentina's heartworm treatment, Helping Strays will provide everything you need; the medical care, crate, food, etc. Valentina can still be adopted but will need to come back to the shelter periodically to complete her treatment which is covered in the adoption fee.
