Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Gigi is a large schnauzer mix. She is approx 2 yrs old and 37 lbs. She could do to continue to put on some weight. We rescued her and her pups from a local shelter. She was very shy when we first brought her home and it took a couple of days to get her to go outside on her own. Now she loves to run out to the yard and play with her buddies. She loves toys and loves to eat. She is semi house trained but getting better every day and does well on a leash. She loves to ride in the car and gets along with all of the other dogs. She is a really sweet girl. Her back legs are somewhat 'bowed' but the vet feels that's just the way they are and she gets around like any other dog. She would like a yard to run in and no small children that she may knock over as she is exhuberent! She was treated for heart worms with the required series of injections, and she has also been started on a heart worm preventive monthly as all dogs should be.
The total adoption donation of $525 and includes the required interstate health certificate and transport , spay/neuter, shots including rabies, bordatella, parvo, lepto, distemper and canine influenza, and micro chip with a lifetime pre paid registration. The total amount is payable to Shaggy Dog Rescue which is a 501c3. Some of our dogs are still in Texas in foster care. The application is online at http://houstonshaggydogrescue.org/application-process/
Just as a note, if you are in Massachusetts and are adopting directly from Texas rather than from a local foster, there are new quarantine laws in effect. All rescues must be quarantined 48 hours at a state run facility, and in addition, a second interstate health certificate is required to be issued by a Massachusetts vet. This new law may add an additional cost.
