Story
After spending almost two weeks in doggie jail (Halifax County Animal Control) nobody came for her so we sprung little Erida. Now in foster care she is waiting for her vet appointment in two weeks for spay, heartworm testing, and any additional vaccinations needed. A terrier mix, Erida is about 3 years old, 12 pounds, has some of her vaccinations, is house and leash trained. She seems fine with smaller dogs, but is not a fan of larger dogs. Loving lap time, Erida will follow you around the house. At this time we do not recommend homes with children under 10. If interested in possible adoption apply at rainbowanimalrescue.org ##2411590##
