If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/genericYou can learn about the adoption process by visiting: http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/. Dog's Name: Peter (PET0224DICMD)Estimated Breed: Feist MixApproximate Age: 9 Months Approximate Weight: 25 LBS Currently Living at: Boarding Adoption Fee: $500DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Hi there, I'm Peter! I arrived as a stray to an overcrowded high kill shelter in rural Virginia along with my buddies, Paul and Mary. Fortunately, we have been rescued and I am now awaiting my forever home. Could that be with you? I'm a bit shy at first but once I warm up, I am your typical friendly pup full of love and playfulness. As you can probably see from my first picture, my right eye was a little messed up. I suffered from entropion, a condition where my eyelid folds inward, causing continuous irritation and damage to my eye. Sadly, this condition had already led to blindness in one eye, and the only solution was to have it removed. The surgery went well, and I am a very healthy and happy puppy otherwise. I won't let being one-eyed get me down! I love being around people, wagging my tail to show how happy I am to see them, and I'm not just friendly with humans - I also get along great with other dogs. Adopting me means gaining a loyal, fun-loving friend who will always be there to brighten your day. If you're looking for a best buddy who will bring endless joy and companionship into your life, then look no further because I'm your guy! At my young age, I am in my prime for training and socialization. I would love to find a family or person to call my own. Please remember that young puppies require a lot of time, love, and patience to become the best doggie citizens they can be. Could you be the home of my dreams? Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family. Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (at partner vet if not fixed before adoption), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets. Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.
