Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Say hello to Java. This 10 year old spit fire is a hound mix that comes from a sprint racing background. Java is sure to keep you on your toes and will never let you forget when it's dinnertime! Java needs an active adopter that enjoys outdoor adventures and shenanigans in general. He would well in a home with children and/or other dogs. At the end of the day, Java just wants a family of his own to give him tons of butt scratches, cuddles and adventures.
Our adoption fee is $250 and covers: health certificate, microchip, bordetella, dhlpp and rabies vaccines, spay or neuter, a Ruffwear harness and use of Whistle GPS tracker for 3 months.
Things To Consider Before Inquiring:
- Our adoptable sleds dog are used to living in a traditional working kennel environment (ie: completely outdoors).This means that they will need to be house trained and exposed to house stimulus like stairs, cars, vacuums, wood floors, etc. Adopting an adult sled dog is similar to welcoming a puppy.
- Our adoptable sled dogs range from medium to high energy. In general they require multiple walks daily and engaging toys when inside the home. A bored/under exercised sled dog can be a destructive and anxious sled dog!
- Our adoptable sled dogs are trained to run and are therefore in general are a high flight risk! We do require that they be on leash or within a fenced in yard at all times until proper recall training has been received.
- While many of our adoptable sled dogs have befriended kitties in their new homes, we do not have cats at our facility to "test" them with. That being said, adopters are instructed to monitor all interactions with small animals as there is no telling how they may react.
