Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Our pets are fostered and physically located in Mt.Airy, Nc until they are adopted. Once they are adopted we an transport to your location or one of our other north eastern locations. Our transporter runs every other Friday.
Baby Girl is a red heeler. She was born 6-27-20. She is a smaller girl, around 35 pounds. It is typical of the females of this breed to be smaller than the males. We pulled her from a high intake shelter knowing she was heartworm positive (not many groups will take heartworm positive dogs due to the large expense of treating them). We had her treated for heartworms and she is cleared to go to her new home now. Baby Girl is an absolute doll of a dog. She is great with people. She likes other dogs and she does not seem to mind the cats here either. She is crate trained and potty trained.
She is an active dog, she is a working dog. She needs to be matched up with an active owner who has heeler experience. She will not do well cooped up in a small cramped apartment all day. She would be great to teach agility to or train in other fun games that heelers excel at. She needs a job, even if it is not working cattle(they are cattle dogs)! So it will be up to her person to give her the stimulation and physical activity she will be need.
This girl is spayed and will go home current on all vaccines, deworming, flea prevention on heartworm prevention(current negative heartworm test), and microchipped. This girl will receive a completed physical and certificate of health issued by our vet prior to transport. The adopter will get all the health records with the adoption.
We require a prescreen application to adopt. You can find that on our website at www.saveamuttkennel.net
