OTIS - CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIEL DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Adoption Fee: $350. Otis is a very handsome and very sweet little Cavalier. He loves exploring in the backyard and hanging with his cavalier friends. He also very much love toys. He is doing so well with his housetraining and is crate trained. Otis does have a grade III-IV heart murmur and due to some mild heart enlargement, has been started on Vetmedin. This medication is given twice daily and will be lifelong. Otis will need to be seen every 6-12 months for either an echocardiogram and/or radiographs to monitor his heart for any changes. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Otis would do best with a confident resident dog in the home, but it is not required. Financially stable family willing and able to continue his cardio care and medication. *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly.
