My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mary Ellen is approx 3 yrs old and 13 lbs and the sweetest little wire haired dachshund mix. She is just precious. She is a little shy at first until she gets to know her surroundings and feel safe and then is just the most easiest dog. She gets along great with all of the other rescues, loves people,seems to be quite well house trained and does well on a leash. She is a quiet and well behaved little girl that is always happy and wagging her tail. As she is timid , no children under 12 years old. She did test positive for heartworms and was treated with the required series of injections, and she has been started on a monthly heart worm preventive.

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.
