Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I'm Metro, a 3 year old Chihuahua mix. I currently live in a foster home where I love playing with the resident dog and with all the toys. It's even better when I go to the dog park because there are so many other dogs to play with. I can be a little mouthy when I play, but I am still a very good dog. I know how to sit, lie down, come, and I'm trying to learn stay. I am in a crate during the day when my foster family is gone, which I don't mind because I get a kong filled with peanut butter. I am energetic and would love to have another dog to play with at my forever home, or someone who enjoys going on long walks and will play with me. I love cuddling after a long day and will give you plenty of kisses. At night I sleep in the crate but I will gladly sleep in your bed with you. I can't wait to meet you – please stop by an event today!
****My adoption fee is $295.****
The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.
All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws.
Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $25 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization.
The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.
