Story
Venus: the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Venus: also my name and, while I'm not Roman, I was picked up as a stray, roamin'. I am around 2 years old and 40 pounds, and have the most beautiful face you might have ever seen. When I was picked up, I tested positive for heartworm and was covered in urine stains, which means that I probably spent a lot of time outside, in a small area where I had to sleep on the same spot that I used the bathroom. This almost ended in a death sentence for me, until Multiple Breed Rescue agreed to take me, get me the treatment I needed, and give me a chance to find a real forever family.
I am partway through my heartworm treatment now. I have two injections to get still, on May 13 & 14. After that, I need another 30 days of low activity, then I can start resuming normal life. You don't need to worry about my heartworm, though. You can't catch it from me, and I can't give it to other pets in your home, so other than staying calm for a little while longer it's not really a big deal for me, and I hope it's not a deal breaker for you. Afterall, the alternative was that I was going to be euthanized, so picking treatment was a no brainer for me!
I've been in a foster home for a little while now, and my foster mom really loves me. I like to be in my crate, and I like to go on leashed walks, which works out well with my treatment plan. I get along great with the people I meet, including kids, and have gotten along great with other dogs, too. I love to get cuddles and pets from my foster family, and they like that I don't slobber them with too many kisses. I like to play with toys, and am very treat and food motivated. I don't chew things I shouldn't, I don't get into the garbage or take things off the counter, and I am potty trained so only do my business outside. Foster mom says I am the best girl, and she seems to really know what she's talking about, so I believe her when she tells me that. My ideal family is one that will take me on adventures, who has plenty of toys for me, and who will shower me with the love I deserve. Please pick me to complete your family!
