Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Marietta is one of a litter of seven puppies born on June 26th to our Georgia, a Border Collie x Shetland Sheepdog mix. We believe the litter had more than one father (yes, that happens with dogs!). Perhaps one daddy was a Dachshund, as several of the puppies are very Doxie-like with shorter legs and longer ears. Each puppy is named after a town in Georgia and is special in its own way. Marietta is one of just two girls in the litter; she also holds the distinction of being the smallest pup. She has the most unusual black and brown coloring. I can't wait to see what she looks like when she grows up -- I just know she'll be lovely!
Marietta is currently being fostered in the Ocala area. Her adoption fee is $350, and includes worming (last three fecal tests were negative), three rounds of vaccinations, microchip, and spay surgery. You can view Marietta's full photo album on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/lovinglifecaninerescue
If you think you would like to give this precious puppy a forever home, please e-mail LovingLifeRescue@gmail.com with the following information. We do not have an adoption application but instead rely upon an interview process. At a minimum, please share such things as where you live, your household composition (how many children and what ages), your yard setup and/or exercise plan, pets you have and/or had, what happened to those pets, what flea/heartworm medication you used on former pets, your work schedule and amount of time the dog would be alone, if you rent do you have landlord approval, what you are looking for in a dog, etc. The more information the merrier. And there are no "right" answers. Honest! Please include a phone number at which you may be reached, as well as vet references that we may check should you be chosen once the initial application process is complete.
Please note: We do not adopt on a first-come-first-served basis, but rather choose what we think is the best match of adopter and dog based on each dog's unique personality and needs.
Thank you for considering a rescue dog as your next canine companion! ♥
