Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Keeper is, well, just that. He's a Keeper! He was having a really rough time in the shelter, but in the week he's been in his foster home, he's turned into one of the happiest dogs ever! This guy is just happy, friendly, loving, cuddly, playful, housebroken, an all around great guy! He has been fully vetted (neutered, heartworm tested, vaccinated, etc.). Keeper limps some with his back legs. He's had x-rays and nothing is broken. Our vet thinks it's caused by one of two things: the x-rays do show his legs are full of buckshot (we can't imagine what this poor thing went through!). It's old and the wounds are completely healed over, so unless it becomes truly problematic, the buckshot is probably there to stay. Also, the outdoor kennels at the shelter he was at has almost 7' tall fences. Whoever decided they didn't want Keeper anymore threw him over the fence in the middle of the night. That's an awfully long way to fall for any dog. He's only been in foster care for a week, and since there are no breaks, we are hoping his limp will get better and better over time and with some TLC. It sure doesn't slow this happy boy down, though! His foster family consists of other beagles and human kids and Keeper loves them all. He's seriously going to make someone a GREAT family dog! His adoption fee is $250.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Our Official Website.
All of our dogs are or will be spayed or neutered prior to leaving rescue or shortly after. All adoption donations REQUIRE spay or neuter. Our dogs receive a distemper shot(s), rabies, and worming (we recommend having your vet do a fecal to ensure there are no parasites left) ether before they leave or included with surgery if done at our preferred vet clinics. We treat for fleas as needed and provide our foster dogs with heartworm medication. You will receive a medical record detailing what your dog has received, which may include microchipping.
Donations are non-refundable, however, we do offer a ten day trial, which must be stated on your application. Our pets may come with an offer for insurance. Please ask for details.
We strongly suggest training for all dogs to help create a bond between companion and owner. We can recommend trainers in and around Northwest Indiana.
ABRA dogs are fed well and we recommend premium dog food such as Canidae, Wellness, Evo, Earthborn, Kirkland (sold only at Costco) and a raw food diet. We highly encourage adopters to keep their new dog on a high quality food.
Our pregnant dogs are fed raw food and we start newborn puppies on raw as well. We believe the health of your animal is dictated by how well it is treated, what it is fed, an appropriate vaccine or holistic prevention, and how it is socialized. All Breeds are good breeds!
We receive many dogs from dog auction, so any dog over the age of two that comes from a dog auction is examined for a teeth cleaning prior to adoption.
Our adoption donations vary and are based on the overall cost of the dog and the expenses we inherit when they come from shelters or the dog auction. Visit our website for more information and an application www.allbreedrescueinc.com
