Hi, my name is Nutmeg! How fitting, seeing as I’ve come to the Nutmeg State all the way from the South! I’m a very nice girl who absolutely loves belly rubs and people. I aim to please when it comes to people and I just want to make everyone happy! Long walks make my day and I’ve been told I’m a star at agility - you should see me on the equipment! I enjoy car rides and I’ll always be up for a ride to a fun destination or just a relaxing cruise on a nice day. People tell me I’m very smart and that really boosts my confidence! I know my basic commands and like to make my family proud of me. I’m so excited to finally meet my loving forever family!

Unless otherwise indicated, all Double Dog Rescue dogs have received the following before being available for adoption:

Thorough veterinary examination

All routine annual vaccinations, including Rabies, DHLPP, Bordatella (kennel cough), Heartworm Test, Fecal Test, Deworming

Spay/Neuter

All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease.

VETTING NOTE: Double Dog Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets. If anything is brought to our attention, we treat the dog. After adopting the dog, you will be responsible for following up with all vetting going forward.

HEARTWORM NOTE: Dogs who were treated for Heartworm can test positive up to 4-6 months after last treatment. All dogs are immediately put on Heartguard/Ivermectin following the treatment to kill the Heartworm larvae. All dogs should be re-tested after 5-6 months from the last Heartworm treatment.
