Story

Breed Guess: Jack Russell Terrier Mix Age: 2 years on 8/28/2021 Gender: Spayed Female Weight: 20 pounds currently Children: No Cats: Unknown at this time Dogs: Meet and Greet required Housebroken: Doing well in the foster home Adoption fee: $250.00 **Please note that Harley is living in a foster home and is not at the shelter. An application must be submitted to meet this little lady. This is what Harley's foster family has to say about her: She’s a very affectionate alpha girl who prefers to be a lap dog princess. She's good with cats and dogs, and is house trained. She loves stuffed squeaky toys and peanut butter raw hides. She’s great at scaling fences and gates, so it is not recommended that you leave her outdoors if no one’s home as she’ll try to find you. If this sweet girl sounds like a good match for you, please fill out an application today! The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed. Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet. All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws. All dogs are also microchipped. Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization. The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.
