Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Victory! She arrived in Chicago November 1, just in time for Game 6 of the World Series. Like the Cubs, this little gal is a real champion. She looks like a white Lab puppy, but has big, pointy Chihuahua ears. Based on her current age (5 months) and weight (10 pounds) we think she will grow to be a small-size adult (20-30 lbs.) but we cannot make any guarantees. So only those willing to take pot-luck in terms of what breed or size she grows into should apply!
Victory watched the Cubs win Game 6 in a foster home with young kids, so we know she is good with kids.
She loves attention and wants to follow you around and be where the action is. She is not a huge fan of being outside-- after doing her business in the backyard she sits near the door, wanting back inside. Once inside, she loves to curl up in your lap for a nap. She is used to sleeping in a crate, and is well on her way to being potty-trained.
Victory gets along fine with other dogs--she is friendly, not playful-- but prefers human companionship. She would be fine as the only dog, as long as she has someone home part or all of the day to complete her potty training and provide her with a lap to lounge in!
You can meet Victory at her current foster home, Wilmette Pet Center, 625 Green Bay Rd. (847-251-6750, wilmettepetcenter.com). Although you will want to take her home on the spot, since she truly is a winner, please know you will have to submit an application for adoption.
Victory's adoption fee of $350 includes vet exam, distemper combo vaccination, bordetella vaccination, rabies vaccination, flea/tick preventative, heartworm preventative, routine deworming, microchip and spay.
