Kid friendly: Yes House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Energy level: Low History: Pulled from an animal control Adoption Fee: $300 From the Foster: Willow is truly the sweetest girl you'll ever meet. She loves down time snuggling up on the couch, but also lights up when she gets to run outside, play fetch, and play with her toys. Lucky she's so cute and sweet, because she does have some long-term medical needs. She has environmental allergies which have caused her to lose hair and it likely won't entirely grow back. Her allergies can't ever be cured, but can be managed with long-term care and medications. If her allergies aren't controlled she develops infections. She's gets an allergy medication twice daily, antifungal 3 days per week, ears cleaned and medicated twice weekly, bathed twice weekly, and allergy shots once weekly, all of which she is a trooper for. She eats a prescription diet that has a novel protein source while food allergies are ruled out. Hopefully, the allergy shots will enable her to be on less medications some day. While this sounds like a lot - its just a matter of a routine, and once you have it down it doesn't feel like a lot :) She goes to her crate easily, but does have some separation anxiety and usually barks for a while until she calms down. She's potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go out with a gentle nudge of your hand and staring at the door. Overall, she will show you more love than you ever knew possible.
