Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Baby Sassafras is the tiniest of tiny Pits we've ever seen but she has sooooo much personality. This girl is most likely a Pocket Pit - a mix of a Pit Bull Terrier and, in this case our guess is Chihuahua of all things. Our guess is that this girl will be no bigger than around 25 pounds, maybe even smaller. This little girl, at 8 weeks old, is still only around five pounds!
Sassafras is awesome! She is so very very people oriented and will follow her person or people wherever they go. She is feisty and brave and so very playful, but very smart and takes correction very we ll. She sill make a great addition to any family, though we are looking for a home where any children she will be around are eight years or older due to her small size.
If you are interested in adopting this girl, please submit an application and pictures of your yard/fence line. Read on for details or go to the Adoption Process page of our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org.
All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - and is found under Resources. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live.
Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
