Waylon's Story
Waylon came into our care after retiring from life as a hunting dog. He's about six years old and has never lived indoors before but he seems to love being warm and cozy inside. He is very friendly and actively seeks human attention. We were told he is used to being around chickens, cats, dogs, and kids. He will need someone willing to work with him on house training. He is clean in his kennel because we take him outside frequently. He is very quiet, especially for a Beagle. <br/><br/>When he went to the vet, they discovered he is heartworm positive. He will have to go through several months of treatments involving a series of injections, and we would really like him to be in a home, hopefully with someone who plans to adopt him when the treatment is complete. During his recovery, he will have to have very restricted activity for 6 to 8 weeks. He can't be neutered until he finishes treatment. We would like to place him locally, as he will need to go back and forth to the vet for treatment. The Shelter will cover the cost of his treatment.<br/><br/>The first step in our adoption process is to fill out an adoption application here: medfieldshelter.com/adopt<br/><br/>If a dog is listed on our website, it is still available for adoption; however, there may be applications ahead of yours. We typically receive many applications for every dog we post. All adoption meetings are by appointment.<br/><br/>Our dog adoption fee is $450 for dogs aged seven months to seven years old, and $250 for dogs aged eight years and older. Every dog we place receives age-appropriate vaccines, is treated for worms, ticks, and fleas, tested for heartworm, microchipped, and spayed or neutered before adoption. We send each dog home with a collar and leash. Please fill out the adoption application if you would like to be considered for a dog in our care.<br/><br/>With few exceptions, dogs are happiest and well-behaved when they receive daily exercise and ongoing training, so we always prefer to place our dogs with families willing to commit to both.
