Please contact Paul Slebzak (pauls@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.cutie pie looking for forever family! LINDA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:  Linda        Best Guess for Breed:  Cattle dog and corgi mix   Best Guess for Age:  3.5 years as of December 2025      SEX:    Female   Approximate Weight:  21 lbs   Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:  South Carolina shelter - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!   Special adoption considerations: Linda is a truly Lucky Dog. She tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left!   Linda is Looking For:  Her forever home! We don't know her back story but it might not have been all that awesome. Her gait is a bit off in the left hip. X-rays show old pelvic fractures that healed a bit off and now her range of motion in that leg is a bit off. Know what's not off? Her love, her loyalty, and her sense of adventure. Linda can't wait for her fresh start - can't wait to get her own family for all the adventures that well-loved family pets can get - and all those snuggles.    She has so many adoring gazes, so much loyal companionship to offer. What do you say? Is she the one you see by your side?   What My Foster Says About Me:   We will update this once she has spent time in foster care.    Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:    The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at    www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!    Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs!  To learn about fostering, please contact    fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org   !
